Alverca HubAlverca starts preparing for the visit to Rio Ave with good news. André Gomes was released from the under-21 team due to physical issues, but is available for the league match.
What happened?
André Gomes was deemed «unavailable» after an evaluation by the FPF's Health and Performance Unit, on Tuesday. The physical problem suffered during the match against Sporting, on Sunday, will not prevent his presence at the Estádio dos Arcos.
Why is this important for Alverca?
The preventive decision strengthens Custódio Castro's options. The Alverca coach will also have, apparently, Francisco Chissumba, who returns to the options after a month of absence.
What's next?
The 20-year-old left-back was deemed fit in the run-up to the reception against Sporting, but did not play against the lions. Chissumba's physical condition was managed with an eye on the seven final matches that the ribatejanos will have to play after the break for the national team commitments.
