Racing striker Adrián Martínez suspended for clash with Rosario Central

Racing Club will be without its leading scorer Adrián “Maravilla” Martínez for the upcoming away fixture against Rosario Central in the Torneo Clausura 2026. The striker received a two‑match suspension after being sent off for an elbow to a opponent during the quarter‑final of the previous Apertura tournament. The disciplinary decision by the AFA Tribunal of Discipline states the ban expires on the night of the Rosario Central match, leaving Martínez unavailable for that game.

The red card was issued after referee Darío Herrera reviewed the incident on VAR and deemed the elbow worthy of an expulsion, reducing Racing to ten men for the final minutes of that earlier encounter.
