Talleres went from the VAR's no goal for Cobresal to sentencing the match at the height of Calama”>Córdoba Workshops he stopped being just an escort Velez. Now he was five points behind the leader of the Professional League along with hurricane. In the Clasico Córdoba, everything was in his favor as he played from the first minute with a numerical superiority due to relegation Alejandro Rébolafrom Belgrano. But he failed to capture that difference in the game. He had more of the ball, more initiative, but few came clear and in one of the last plays, Pablo Chavarria He almost scored the winning goal but goalkeeper Herrera put the final shot into the corner.
The classics can be generally boring. There is always a lot of fear of losing. The result is a thermometer of the mood of the fans during the week. And in a city as football-loving as Córdoba, like any of the big cities in Argentina, one victory is not taken for granted over the other. As an exception, the classics are exciting, back and forth, with many goals.
This Cordoban classic from October 6, 2024 will go down in history because immediately after the minute played, it was called off Rebolafrom Belgrano, for a strong foul on Valentín Depetri. The sin of childhood? Not at all, the central marker is 36 years old and after he made the lie, he realized the mistake he made. Referee Nicolás Ramírez sent him off without resorting to technology. No one protested. The sanction was perfect.
With this overview, Talleres were 89 minutes ahead of them to settle a game that went in their favor from the start and continue within Vélez’s shot.. But there is an axiom in football: to score goals you have to kick the goal. And the T, despite his good moment, often errors on this issue, handling the ball, looking for possible paths to reach the rival goal but it is not effective.
The numerical difference was not noticeable, at least in the first stage. Juan Cruz Real immediately put his hand on the bench, Mariano Troilo replaced Velázquez. This allowed the Pirate to maintain an offensive command, which made it difficult for the T to reach the goal. The attempts were made from outside the area and they were all deflected, first Depietri, then Botta and finally Girotti, wasting chances with shots from distance and they were all isolated.
At that point, there was speculation among fans and many journalistic sectors that the AFA, for a political issue (read SAD vs Non-Profit Civil Societies), was going to start harming Talleres with arbitration rulings. However, Nicolás Ramírez’s performance was amazing from the first minute, when Rébola was sent off for a hard infraction at the start.
Talleres’ problem was that he didn’t know how to unlock Belgrano’s lock after being left with 10. It wasn’t too much of a command. It was logical to manage the game, the actions, the search, there were situations, but they were not so clear. In the second half, the best collective action, on 28 minutes, was a shot from Botta that went just wide.
In the end, however, Belgrano almost took the three points, because there was a clearance from the area, which Chavarría found alone in front of the goalkeeper and although the definition of the Pirata forward was good, Herrera managed to touch make straight into the corner. On the next play, Talleres almost won it but Juan Rodríguez’s last touch went wide.
The most important game in the province of Córdoba is still tight, as they tied 7 of the last 8 games they played.
