The Interior Tournament enters its final stretch and expectations to know who will be the teams that will lift the trophy, in its two divisions, are increasingly higher. This Saturday the semifinals will be played and two teams from Cordoba will be looking for their respective finals. In the TDIA, Córdoba Athletic was never able to access the decisive match and that will be the objective that the champion of the Top 10 of this 2023 will have in front of it. In the B division, Universitario will also seek a pass to the defining stage of the competition.
The federal nuance that distinguishes the contest was well reflected in the photo of the four candidates for the title. Of the semifinalists, the only one that has already been proclaimed champion of the contest is Jockey Club de Rosario, which made the Olympic return in 2000 and 2002, while in 2016 it lost the final with Los Tarcos (25-20). The Rosario team will be the rival of Córdoba Athletic, this Saturday from 4 p.m., in the Jardín Espinosa neighborhood. The meeting can also be followed through the Star+ platform.
Marista Rugby Club is the only one of the 32 teams that competed in the current season that remains undefeated in both TDI divisions; In addition, the Mendoza club has just lost in the final of the TDI B 2023 last season against Tala RC (31-11). Marista even reached the TDI A final twice, but was unable to win: in 1998 it was beaten by Jockey de Rosario (25-13) and in 2019 it was beaten by Gimnasia y Esgrima de Rosario (30-20). The Mendoza team will host Universitario (Tucumán), which also played the decisive match twice, but could not celebrate: in 2002 it lost to Jockey de Rosario (32-28) and in 2009 Duendes RC defeated it (35-21).
