Eduardo Domínguez, the head coach of Estudiantes, bid farewell to the team following a significant announcement of his departure just a day before their match against Sarmiento. In this final game, Estudiantes triumphed 1-0, securing their place at the top of the Apertura standings. The emotional context of Domínguez's departure was deepened by the connection he built with the fans, who were taken aback by his sudden announcement and gathered to show their appreciation during the match.

The atmosphere during the farewell was palpable, with fans giving a standing ovation as Domínguez walked onto the field alongside his players, demonstrating the love and respect the supporters had for him. The coach, affectionately known as 'Barba', acknowledged the difficulty of leaving a club that felt like home and expressed his gratitude to the fans, saying it would only be a 'see you later' as he prepares to take on a new challenge with Atlético Mineiro in Brazil.

Domínguez's departure marks the end of a successful tenure, during which he not only led Estudiantes to title victory but also fostered a strong bond with the club’s community. As he transitions to this new opportunity, the implications of his departure will be significant for both the team and its supporters, as they reflect on the impact he has had on the club's recent successes and the challenges that lie ahead without his leadership.
