Historic: Talleres de Remedios de Escalada eliminated Racing Club in the last play and advanced to the round of 16 of the Argentine Cup

The summary of Workshops (RE) vs. Racing for the 16th finals of the Argentine Cup

Racing Club lost 2-1 with Talleres de Remedios de Escalada, which plays in the Primera Nacional, due to Fernando Duré’s goal after six minutes and Diogo Guzmán’s agonizing goal. The match corresponding to the round of 16 of the Argentine Cup took place at the Centenario stadium in Quilmes. The Ascenso team finished with ten players, but was among the best 16 teams in the federal competition and will face the round of 16 against Banfield or Independiente Rivadavia de Mendoza.

Gustavo Costas’ team came out with everything and from the first minute they were close to scoring. Bruno Zuculini tried from the door of the area, but goalkeeper Damián Tello was attentive to dive and swipe at the corner. Immediately afterwards, the red-haired goalkeeper made trouble with the clearance and after a series of rebounds, Salas almost scored. However, the opening of the scoreboard would come at the feet of Fernando Duré, when Talleres de Remedios de Escalada passed the rival siege. The defender took advantage of a rebound and only had to push it almost over the line.

The Academy reacted and began to put him in the Ascenso cast in their field. The credential of the Avellaneda cast was the wings, although the first most dangerous one was with a free kick by Juanfer Quintero that passed very close to the left post.

Before going to half-time Talleres could have expanded its advantage after a great play by Patricio Romero, who reached the bottom from the left, sent the center, but the ball was not connected by one of his teammates and Racing was saved from second place.

In the complement Costas moved the bench to give his team more offensive power. In search of an equalizer, he sent the scorer Adrián “Maravilla” Martínez to the field (until this Thursday he scored 16 goals in 18 games) and Johan Carbonero.

The testimony of Diogo Guzmán

However, once again Talleres had a concrete chance to widen its lead, when Nicolás Molina saw him ahead of Facundo Cambeses and the ball hit the crossbar, peaked on the line and did not go in.

It was at 70 minutes when relief came for Racing with Maximiliano Salas’ great goal, with a left-footed missile that hit the corner.

In the last minutes Racing wanted to turn it around. At 88 minutes Talleres was left with ten players due to the expulsion of Sebastián Benega, who committed a strong foul on Salas.

In extra time Talleres scored the second goal that came in the 94th minute, after a rebound from Cambeses with a mid-range shot. The ball was captured by Ciro Campuzano who assisted Diogo Guzmán who touched it first and scored the second.

The Albirrojo team repeated the feat of the previous phase, when they eliminated Instituto de Córdoba in an even match that ended with a 2-1 victory in favor of the Buenos Aires team. However, their present is not ideal in the domestic championship, since after 13 dates in Zone A of the First National, Martín Rolón’s team could only win three times, tied five and lost another five. That is, it is in 15th place, with 14 units, very far from the places that provide places to enter the Reduced for Promotion.
