  "account": "Eduardo Coudet, the coach of River Plate, will not be present at the press conference following the team's heartbreaking elimination from the Copa Sudamericana at the hands of Independiente Santa Fe. The coach's future remains uncertain, as he had previously expressed doubt about his continued role with the club if they were causing River any difficulties. His absence at the press conference only serves to fuel speculation about his potential departure, especially given the team's poor performance, including their elimination from international competitions and the threat to their qualification for continental tournaments in the Liga Profesional. Currently, River Plate has only four points from six matches played and finds itself in second-to-last place in the league table.",
