Racing bet on Milito to spur them to Argentine title


BUENOS AIRES (Reuters) - Diego Milito, whose fine scoring form helped Inter Milan win the Champions League in 2010, is back at Racing Club for the Argentine league season starting this weekend.

Racing have revamped their squad in a bid to end a long slump and kick off on Saturday (01:30 AM BST) against promoted Defensa y Justicia, the side who Racing’s new coach Diego Cocca steered to the Primera B Nacional second-tier championship.
