NEWELL’S gladly went very close to its own home this Friday night. He wanted to obtain a victory against Platense that would catapult him provisionally to the top of Zone A of the League Cup along with Godoy Cruz, but he was light years away from it.
The 0-0 was crowned with a profuse whistle from the leper fans who understood that there was a unbeatable chance to add three. Although the team They have gone 4 games without losing, they only had one victory and 3 draws.
It is true that He remains among the 4 that today would move on to the next instance, but he seems to be spending the savings from that brilliant start with 4 consecutive successes.
Against Calamar he seemed to miss too much the quality and category of the suspended Ever Banega, a permanent football powerhouse from midfield. Mauricio Larriera’s painting had the initiative but not the ideas. Platense, for his part, tried not to take refuge too far behind and worked intelligently through the process to get a point that is not bad at all.: He also has 4 appearances without falls, but his claims seem to be more modest and he is still in search of an identity after the arrival of the Favio Orsi – Sergio Gómez duo.
In the first half, a header from Francisco González was barely counted for the local team. that passed near the stick and a shot by Ignacio Schorformer Marrón player, who responded with a shot deflected from Ronaldo Martínez.
In the complement nothing happened until 28′, when the visiting goalkeeper, Juan Pablo Cozzani, deflected a delivery from Brian Aguirre into the corner. Another great chance was born from the corner kick, which Juan Ramírez wasted by finishing just high on the edge of the six-yard box.
And there was nothing more from there until the end; only the discontent of the red-and-black public who left disappointed by a false performance by Newell’s.
