Godoy Cruz has champion’s luck. This Monday evening they achieved a heartbreaking (and undeserved) victory on the Platense pitch and secured a place in the quarter-finals of the Professional League Cup. Tomba is the strongest team of the year so far: it is the one that has scored the most with 26 points, the one that has conceded the fewest goals and has become the first to qualify for the playoffs.
Under the tomb there is Lanús who saved the draw against Unión and finished second.
Boca seemed to be the big winner of the match after the comeback in the classic against San Lorenzo who already depends on too many third parties to dream of the playoffs. The 2-1, with goals from Edinson Cavani and Miguel Merentiel overturning the game opened by Bareiro, helped Diego Martínez’s team enter the top 4. But obviously Newell’s took a great victory from Junín and made to escape. the elite positions: Lepra wins with 10, rises to 21 points and rises to third place in Zone B.
Racing, despite the hat-trick of its “9 Maravillas” in the victory against Central Córdoba of Santiago del Estero, has 18, the same as Estudiantes, except that Academia has a difference of +7 and Pincha +6, which – in the event of a tie – at the time of settlement it will be like having an extra point.
There are two dates left and they all intersect to ensure that the positions in the rankings can move. Obviously Godoy Cruz is already in the quarterfinals.
Zone A was also very busy this weekend. Argentinos Juniors were the only leaders with 24 points after Córdoba’s heartbreaking victory over Instituto. Second with 22 are Talleres (+8) and, on equal points, the surprising Barracas (+4). Pegadito River, who lost to Huracán, and Vélez with 21. And Rojo is very complicated because to fall he needs none other than River.
This is what the playoffs look like today
