Line of three at the back and high pressure to recover the ball in the rival field for both of them, so at the beginning of the match they were practically a mirror. Of course, differences began to appear later. for the characteristics that the players brought to each team.
The local team wanted to strike first and, in just seconds of play, they had already stepped into the rival area. El Bicho did not sit idly by and responded: with Lescano as driver and a very plugged-in Gondou.
Thus, the first half flew by, pure back and forth. Of course, there were some on both sides mismatches in the retreat that generated spaces well used by the forwards. That’s why archers were essential…
Losada blocked a good mid-range shot by Lescano and Ruso Rodríguez made a great save on a header and was very quick to anticipate a clear goal-scoring play by Chavarría. Equal, until the Pirate scorer tipped the balance.
This time it was not because of his goals but rather he earned the second yellow card and before the break he left his team with ten. That extra man took advantage of Argentinos, who took control of the ball from the start of the second half but missed Maxi Romero.
However, When Belgrano was having the worst time, the kid Gerónimo Heredia appeared, which culminated a dream week, He captured a dirty ball and took a shot from outside the area to score the only goal of the game. The Real team was not left alone in that: they suffered and endured, but they hurt each time against, like when Matías Suárez gave a great assist to Longo who burst the crossbar.
