In the match between Fortaleza and Boca Juniors in the Copa Sudamericana, where the Xeneizes couldn't secure a victory and settled for a draw, bad news struck for the Argentinians with Nicolás Figal's injury. Figal was substituted for Di Lolo at halftime.

Despite no official report from Boca Juniors and Figal not training with the team, coach Diego Martínez revealed that the defender has a tear in his left calf and would be out for at least three weeks.

Missing out on three crucial matches, notably the upcoming May 29, 2024 clash against Nacional Potosí for progression in the Copa Sudamericana, Boca Juniors urgently need a win or draw in this game to qualify.
