River Plate were the leaders of the second division only a few weeks ago when both Fernando Cavenaghi and David Trezeguet were scoring a lot of goals. However, the goals have dried for River Plate in the last couple of weeks, which has seen the club win only two of the last five matches. This drop in form has resulted in rumours of a fallout between the pair. These rumours came after the match against Gimnasia La Plata, which finished as a goalless draw on Saturday. As a result, River Plate now have to make up three points between now and then of the season over current leaders Instituto.

“The relationship with David is very good, like with ‘Chori’ (Alejandro Dominguez). Not have to invent or find things that do not exist. What happens is that sometimes we have a second front to define and there do not see a better partner located, it is normal. We are used to make comments that things are not true. There are discussions that are normal in football, are within the party,” said Fernando Cavenaghi in a conversation with Radio 9. He also said that the club did not expect to win the second division easily.

The club was relegated from the first division of the Argentine championship for the very first time in its history. However, with the addition of players like Fernando Cavenaghi, they are hoping to make a comeback into the first division pretty soon. Fernando Cavenaghi has said that the main aim of the club this season will be to win the National Championship B, which will ensure their promotion to the top flight. He also said that it is extremely important for a club like River Plate to be in the top flight of the Argentine football. River Plate is one of the well supported clubs in Argentina, but they were relegated for the first time in their history recently.

“It was a tough year for River, the worst of all time and I have no doubt that in 2012 will be different. The idea is to end up there , winning the last game and obviously expect a draw or a defeat of the Institute for being first. But a lot missing, 21 dates, “he said. Fernando Cavenaghi also said that a club like River Plate should not be in the second division for long.
