[FNX Magokiler]

RIVER IS THE CHAMPION OF THE PROFESSIONAL LEAGUE! After Talleres' victory against Huracán, which postponed the celebration on Friday, the Millionaire established himself by defeating Estudiantes 3-1, at a party at the Monumental. Martín Demichelis got his first title as a coach.

The numbers of the LPF Champion River
Núñez's team was crowned on date 25 of the Professional League, with their victory against Estudiantes. In this way, River became champion with 57 points: they won 18 games, lost four and tied three. In turn, so far in the tournament he has scored 45 goals and conceded 16.

Demichelis got his first title as DT
Martín Demichelis, who came to River after working in the lower divisions of Bayern Munich in Germany, won his first title as a coach, no less than at River and after the golden era of Marcelo Gallardo.

River's first post-Gallardo championship
With the coronation in the Professional League, River -led by Martín Demichelis- quickly achieved its first championship after the end of the historic cycle of Marcelo Gallardo, who said goodbye to the Núñez club at the end of 2022.

The best of the Champion River

 

River became champion with a mix of emblematic players (Franco Armani, Milton Casco, Enzo Pérez and Nacho Fernández) and footballers who established themselves at very high levels: Rodrigo Aliendro was the driving force behind the team and Esequiel Barco found one of his best versions in this semester.

Lucas Beltrán was the top scorer for Martín Demichelis's team: he scored 11 goals throughout the championship (3 of them were penalties). Behind were Miguel Borja (5 goals, 2 of them from twelve steps) and Nacho Fernández (also five). In turn, Pablo Solari was the top assister, with five ratings.

How River fared in the classics in the LPF
River, which was crowned champion of the Professional League, is undefeated in the three classics it has played so far in the tournament. Martín Demichelis's team beat Independiente 2-0 on date 13 and also tied with San Lorenzo on date 24.

In turn, they defeated Boca in a Superclásico for history at the Monumental: they won 1-0 with an agonizing penalty goal by Miguel Borja, with an excessive celebration by Agustín Palavecino that sparked a pitched battle and left six players sent off (besides coach Jorge Almirón).

On the other hand, the Millo has a classic yet to be played. Demichelis's team will receive Racing, on the last date of the championship, the last weekend of July.
