Boca Juniors terminated coach Fernando Gago following a disappointing 2-1 loss to River Plate in the Superclásico. Club member Mauricio Serna announced the decision, expressing gratitude for Gago's efforts but citing untenable situations leading to the dismissal. The loss compounded earlier disappointments, including an early Copa Libertadores exit against Alianza Lima, marking a historic low as it was the first elimination by a Peruvian team. Gago's tenure lasted nearly a year, during which he oversaw 30 matches, securing 17 wins but suffering from eight losses.
We're here to make decisions, and late last night, we found that there is no way for him to be our coach. We're very grateful because he's put in all his effort, but there are situations that have led us to make a final decision.
This loss was another blow as the club were eliminated in the early stages of Copa Libertadores, losing to Alianza Lima... For the first time in club history, Boca were eliminated by a Peruvian team in the competition.
