How Rosario Central and Independiente arrive in the Duel for the Opening Tournament
Rosario Central has had an exceptional semester and is at a point to close the first phase as Absolute Leader of Zone B. A defeat would relegate it to the second position for having less goals in favor than independent. Ariel Holan’s team has an undefeated 8 games between League and Argentine Cup, and you have to go back to 0-1 with Boca on the eighth day to find the only defeat in the semester. It comes from beating San Lorenzo 1-0 in the new gasometer and makes three games that do not convert.
For its part, Independent comes from a hard 2-0 defeat against Atlético Tucumán in the Monumental José Fierro, in the postponed day 14. The Julio Vaccari team had to rotate to travel to Tucumán and the Copa Sudamericana and Liga calendar does not take breath. Even so, it remains one of the top opening candidates and can be first in the area if you beat Rosario Central. Lomónaco, Angulo, Tarzia, Hidalgo, Galdames and Ávalos are not among those mentioned and the DT would opt for a mix: Nicolás Freire and Joel Medina could officially debut.
At the institutional level, Aucas (ECU) inhibited the club for Jhonny Quiñonez’s pass. The claim is for 620 thousand dollars because red did not pay the pass quotas.
