Institute, weak game and defeat: what the fall against Platense left
That the Instituto’s own technical director, Lucas Bovaglio, has recognized that his team played the worst game since his return to the First Division, forces the chronicler to be very specific. La Gloria lost last night 1-0 once morest Platense in injury time. But he may well have lost long before. And it should have been so.
From 15 minutes into the first stage, and almost until referee Nicolás Ramírez’s final whistle, Calamar was more from the game and from the attitude. And he had so many situations that “Crazy” Jorge Carranza, with almost half a dozen successful slaps, was the only one who kept Instituto in the game almost until the last moment.
The match
There was barely a goal difference because it was only in the second of the 7 extra minutes that Platense was able to break down the wall that Carranza had built in front of his goal. And he did it in a way that perhaps explains what the production of the Alta Córdoba team was.
Nicolás Morgantini put a winger in the middle of the red box, Sebastián Corda combed the ball backwards and entering freely diagonally, Maximiliano Zalazar, who had replaced Vicente Taborda a while before, with a turn unleashed the celebration of the brown fans and in parallel, It plunged an Institute into disenchantment that barely competed for 15 minutes, the first of the game.
In that period, the few virtues were condensed. A determined and mobile team was seen, willing to stand in the field of its rival. After 5 minutes, a right hand shot from Franco Watson, following a good clearance from Lodico, went next to the right post. And at fifteen, the “Gloria” went out and no longer turned on.
The ball began to be divided with a festival of bochazos from the bottom and the good connections of Gastón Lodico and Franco Watson with each other and with the forwards “Maravilla” Martínez and Santiago Rodríguez disappeared.
Platense exploited all that. First to match and then, to go on to dominate with simple resources: a great attitude to win one-on-ones, the rebounds and divided balls, the mobility and judgment of Taborda and the centers that from the sides, Morgantini and Marcich They hit the head of Nicolás Servetto.
In three minutes of that first half, between 20 and 22 minutes, Carranza headbutted Paraguayan Ronaldo Martínez and shot Franco Díaz from outside. And a shot from behind by Servetto, almost unstoppable for Mosevich and Alarcón, went just wide.
At the start of the second, Platense continued to arrive and Instituto continued without arriving. In the same play, Carranza blocked Ronaldo Martínez and Servetto’s goal. And then he prevented Taborda from scoring an Olympic goal. The Institute reacted with the income of Oscar Garrido and Lucas Albertengo for Graciani and Franco Watson. But it was a mirage. The last sign of life came at 33 when Lodico placed a cross in the Platense area and Macagno sent Santiago Rodríguez’s header to the corner.
With the tie, Institute took more than it should. By attitude, game and arrivals, he always ran him from behind to Platense. When Carranza’s hands explained almost the entire result, Zalazar’s goal came to put things in place. And to leave the “Glory” empty-handed. Full of questions. And without any answer.

Will the individual known as the “Rejectionist” relent on Franjieh’s presidential candidacy?
The name of Marada Movement leader, Suleiman Franjieh, is once once more being considered as a potential presidential candidate. While his recent visit to France and his presidential exam suggest a rise in his political aspirations, sources close to the situation indicate that no significant progress has been made in his favor. Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri’s criticism of Franjieh, his absence from the list of presidential nominees, and the need for widespread agreement on a candidate are some factors that suggest his may fail in his bid for presidency. However, the situation may change if Saudi Arabia changes their position. Meanwhile, an upcoming Arab summit highlights the need for a new Lebanese president. With France losing influence on the political scene, Saudi Arabia remains the strongest contender for Franjieh’s bid for presidency.
After the Southern Front calmed down “well”, the presidential file returns to the fore, and the name of the candidate of the Shiite duo, head of the Marada Movement, Suleiman Franjieh, is restored. He is topped by the list of names, which is surrounded by a vertical division at the level of potential candidates for the presidency, while the star of the other names was absent from the circulation externally and locally. The question remains, does this mean that Franjieh’s chances of reaching the presidency have become advanced following his visit to France, and his undergoing a presidential exam, whose results will be submitted to Riyadh to express his opinion?
Does this mean that Franjieh’s chances of reaching the presidency have become advanced following his visit to France and his submission to a presidential exam whose results will be submitted to Riyadh to express his opinion?
A diplomatic source familiar with the atmosphere of the visit to “Janoubia” ruled out, “Franjieh’s visit to France has raised his score. No, on the contrary, there is no distinguishing mark. The Saudi position rejecting Franjieh, if it was not out loud, has not changed until now, and the equation is in Lebanon is still standing as it was, and the “Shiite duo” is still clinging to it, and the “Christian trio” is still once morest it, which means that things are still the same.
A diplomatic source familiar with the atmosphere of the visit to “Janoubia” ruled out that Franjieh’s visit to France had increased his record. On the contrary, there was no distinguishing mark.
In the source’s opinion, the indications for Franjieh’s exclusion from the list of candidates are contained, through the apparent indications in the confusion of the “duo”, the statements of blame issued by Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri on the one hand, and the speech of “Hezbollah” calling for dialogue and agreement on the other hand, in addition to the failure to announce Franjieh has been nominated so far, due to the absence of any positive indication of his election, and for fear of burning his name if he is not a guarantor of his accession to the presidency.
Indications of Franjieh’s exclusion from the list of candidates are contained in the indicators appearing in the confusion of the “duo”
The sources confirmed that “the only bet of the two is on the Saudi role, which despite not publicly raising the file, is considered the strongest card in this file,” wondering: “Will the Saudi position change in favor of Franjieh, or will the rejection remain and his dreams evaporate? Is the Iranian-Saudi-Iranian understanding ? There are no decisive answers from the Kingdom, but there is no doubt that the Qatari movement and the Saudi-Iranian meeting will move the stagnant waters.
And the sources considered that “the external movement is still below the required level, and it needs to agree on a name first, and this is not currently available locally and abroad, and the rejection of Franjieh’s name may lead to the defiance team deliberately procrastinating and prolonging the vacuum.” It is possible to elect a president before the date of the upcoming Arab summit, so that Lebanon will be present in it at a major level.
The French player is no longer effective and influential in the Lebanese arena, and one cannot bet on him, and today he is weaker than marketing for Franjieh as president
And she pointed out that “the French player is no longer effective and influential on the Lebanese scene, and it is not possible to bet on him, and today he is weaker than marketing to Franjieh as president. After the port explosion, the French president came to Beirut and met with political forces, and proposed an initiative that remained a dead letter. He is like a merchant looking regarding his interests, and he cannot bypass Saudi Arabia.”

In conclusion, the presidential file in Lebanon remains uncertain, with the name of Suleiman Franjieh topping the list of potential candidates for the presidency. However, the diplomatic source interviewed by “Janoubia” suggests that Franjieh’s visit to France did not significantly change his chances of being elected as president. The rejection of Franjieh by the “Christian trio” and the confusion of the “Shiite duo” indicate that the situation remains challenging. The only hope for Franjieh is the Saudi role, which is still unknown. Moving forward, agreement on a name is necessary both locally and abroad to elect a president before the upcoming Arab summit. It is safe to say that the French player is not influential in Lebanon, and he cannot bypass Saudi Arabia, which remains the strongest card in this file.
