River equalized without goals against San Lorenzo as a visitor, in the match corresponding to date 24 of the Professional League and was one step away from consecrating itself in the contest. With this result, River reached 54 points and will have to wait until Monday for the duel between Talleres and Unión, if the Cordovan team does not win, they will already be the champion of the tournament. On the side of San Lorenzo, he was left with 43 points in third position.

In an entertaining first half, the team led by Martín Demichelis was better organized in the game and took the initiative against a San Lorenzo that limited itself to keeping the defense organized, but lacked depth in the last meters.

At minute 17, Enzo Pérez shot from a distance because he was unable to enter the area with a dominated ball, the remnant went several meters from Augusto Batalla’s goal. The game became very even and with few risky arrivals in the arcs. The local team tried to reach it through the air game and after 31 minutes, Franco Armani hit a weak header after a cross from the right wing.

At the beginning of the complement, San Lorenzo had a clear one through Malcom Braida, who was left alone at the far post, hit it with a powerful volley and Franco Armani saved River with a phenomenal save.

After 10 minutes, Ignacio Fernández took advantage of a rebound inside the area to hit a volley cross, but Augusto Batalla deflected it just enough. River tried again, but this time with Lucas Beltrán, who controlled the area, he edged to the right but his shot went cross. The team led by Rubén Insua was left with 10, after 24 minutes, after the expulsion of Nahuel Barrios for a double yellow card.

El Millonario continued looking intensely to break the zero, and Ignacio Fernández arrived again, taking a shot from outside the area that barely brushed Augusto Batalla’s left post. The solid defense of the premises and the performance of their goalkeeper, took the tie at the Nuevo Gasómetro for granted.

On the 25th date, River will receive Estudiantes de La Plata. Following the commitment for the Argentine Cup, on June 19, against Talleres de Córdoba. Instead, San Lorenzo will travel to Colombia to open their series in the Copa Sudamericana against Independiente Medellín. And for the League he will visit Belgrano.
