体坛英语新闻:Argentina coach Sabella names Brazil-based quartet
BUENOS AIRES, Nov. 19 (Xinhua) -- Argentina coach Alejandro Sabella has named four Brazil-based players in his squad for Wednesday's return match against Brazil in the Superclassic of the Americas, a two-leg series between the South American rivals.
Sabella's 22-man squad for the duel against Brazil includes midfielders Pablo Guinazu (Internacional) and Walter Montillo (Cruzeiro) as well as forwards Juan Manuel Martinez (Corinthians) and Hernan Barcos (Palmeiras).
Goalkeeper Agustin Orion has been recalled to the team and will vie for a berth with his Boca Juniors teammate Oscar Ustari.
Colon full-back Maximiliano Caire has been rewarded for his consistent form in Argentina's Apertura tournament with his first national call-up.
Brazil won September's first leg in the Brazilian city of Goiania 2-1 courtesy of a late Neymar penalty.
Last month's return match in the northern Argentine city of Resistencia was cancelled after a lighting failure.
The matches will feature only South American-based players.
Argentina squad:
Goalkeepers: Agustin Orion (Boca Juniors), Oscar Ustari (Boca Juniors).
Defenders: Lisandro Lopez (Arsenal, Argentina), Sebastian Dominguez (Velez Sarsfield), Leandro Desabato (Estudiantes), Santiago Vergini (Newell's Old Boys), Gino Peruzzi (Velez), Maxi Caire (Colon) y Clemente Rodriguez (Boca)
