The archer’s statement Diego Rodrigueza message with the purpose of dispelling suspicions that could be woven about the result between Argentines y Central Tents. “Do numbers? You don’t know what will happen in the other area and you don’t know what’s best for you. Go out to win and whatever happens“, he pointed out, about the game ending in a tie, in a talk with Mariano Closs and Marcelo Espina, from ESPN, minutes before the start of the match for the 14th and last date of the regular stage of the League Cup. The protagonists had to confirm the words on the field: they did so in a vibrant game, with changing results, which ended with a 3-3 tie that took away the Bug the opportunity to finish at the top of Zone A.
Determined, determined and quick to focus on the rival goal, Barracas Central took just 43 seconds to break the scoreboard. For Argentinos, the beginning was presented as a continuation of what was the fall with Racing, from Uruguay, for the Copa Sudamericana: the Charrúas rounded off the 3-0 win with two medium-distance shots, from outside the area. Now, Maximiliano Zalazar He picked up a ball that remained “dead” on the floor, after an attempted clearance by captain Jonathan Galván, and the player whose pass belongs to Boca drew a masterful definition, with the ball in the upper left corner of Rodríguez’s goal.

The tie between Argentinos and Barracas Central
The goal generated a back-and-forth on a fast playing field, due to the rain, with multiple emotions and with Argentinos showing the way and that the injury did not incapacitate him. The old school of the controlled ball, a seal that transcends the passage of time in the Paternal, mutated for a moment, because the rival took away space from the midfielders and the soccer plants were turned off and did not discover the receivers. He broke the mold with a pass from Fernando Meza that was long for Luciano Gondou; but behind the gunner another scorer appeared, Maximiliano Romero, who assisted Alan Lescano, who was overwhelmed by the desperate closing of Facundo Matter and the bailing of goalkeeper Sebastián Moyano. The pivot game of the Gondou and Romero towers, a valid and effective alternative that the Animal to unblock situations that are not fulfilled in what was projected in the previous one.
He did not lose his tranquility or calm in defeat, nor did he slow down in his ambition for victory to take first place in Zone A. Three minutes, the time to reverse the score: the man from Tucumán José María Herreraa winger on the right sector in the 4-3-3 formation designed by coach Pablo Guede, launched a diagonal – he took advantage of Gondou opening the way for him – and from outside the area he broke Sebastián Moyano’s goal. The idea of Barracas Central of being a compact lineup, without spaces between the lines to not give opportunities to Argentinos, became blurred and becoming unbalanced was the worst scenario.: Lescano and Nicolás Oróz went from being controlled to indecipherable in their movements and the three forwards combined to circulate throughout the attack front.
The second assistant referee, Juan Mamani, failed to call an offside position by Gondou and later Romero’s goal was disallowed –exquisite definition, after eliminating the goalkeeper; assistance from Herrera, who in speed broke the line of rival midfielders-, although The main judge Fernando Echenique received the collaboration of Ariel Penel and Ariel Suárez, who were in the VAR room, on the AFA grounds, in Ezeiza. Without having to review the play on the monitor, he marked the center of the playing field and Argentinos, who before the first minute were at a disadvantage, 40 minutes later demonstrated the reasons that pushed them to be the leader and depend on himself to finish at the top of the table.
With the advantage, Argentinos began to rotate pieces thinking about Saturday’s match, for the quarterfinals – in addition to the wear and tear imposed by international competition -, while Barracas Central tried a change of design with the entry of defender Nicolás Demartini for forward Alexis Domínguez: from 4-2- 3-1 to a 3-5-2. The goal difference in favor was an advantage for the Handsomewho out of the corner of his eye observed the scoreboard of the rest of the clubs that were fighting for one of the four places. With an eye toward not conceding new goals, Barracas Central scored a free kick and came close to equalizing: Rodríguez offered a weak response to Zalazar’s free kick and Demartini pushed for the goal..
It was a party in the stands of the Paternal and for Barracas Central, the defeat also offered as a reward the pass to the playoffs. With three minutes left in regulation time, Uruguayan coach Alejandro Orfila ordered the entry of Franco Tolosa, for Rodrigo Insua, injured, and Ramón Ábila in Alan Cantero’s place. Of the lower Seedbed of the Worldalready loaned in the HandsomeTolosa, 22 years old, scored the final 3 to 3, a score that promoted suspicions before the match and that on the field the footballers were in charge of banishing.
