At the Monumental José Fierro, the Dean was effective and beat Racing Academy 1-0 with a stunning goal from Tesuri. Thus, they are only two points away from the top.
Atlético Tucumán secured a victory this Sunday with a 1-0 win over Racing at the Monumental José Fierro, in the 13th matchday of the 2024 Professional League, and positioned themselves two points from the top occupied by Vélez after defeating another contender.
The team coached by Gustavo Costas attempted to go all out in the first half and managed to create an interesting attacking rhythm at the start, with Juanfer Quintero putting pressure on Tomás Durso with a free kick and two attempts at Olympic corners. Roger Martínez also had two opportunities, first failing against Durso and then sending a header wide. The dominance was only interrupted by a shot from Álvaro Brandán that Gabriel Arias blocked.
Until the 29th minute, shortly after the shoulder injury that sidelined Agustín García Basso, the Pulga Luis Rodríguez lit the lamp with a filtered pass to Renzo Tesuri; he brushed aside Facundo Mura and finished with a delightful touch over Arias. The action left La Academia without a playbook, which only returned to threaten near halftime with a shot from Baltasar Rodríguez that went wide.
In the second half, it was the Avellaneda team that did all the attacking, although they got tangled up in the local defense and were inaccurate when they reached the final meters. First, Facundo Mura hit the post, and Durso stood out to deflect a powerful shot from Agustín Almendra and anticipate Agustín Urzi, one of those who came on alongside Johan Carbonero and Santiago Solari in Costas’ failed attempt to add pace to the offense.
It wasn’t Racing’s night in Tucumán, and all the celebration was for the Dean, who will head into the break for the World Cup qualifiers firmly in the fight.
