Beccacece celebrates the classification.
The speculations are over and this Sunday, after the games started at 4:00 pm, the missing classifieds from Zone A of the Professional Soccer League Cup were identified. So yes all quarterfinal matches are defined. Upstairs everything is clear as Racing took its first spot on Friday with 30 points, after the tie with San Lorenzo, and second position is River, beyond what happens tonight at Monumental with Platense. But the contest for second and third place was a match that changed minutes between Defense and Justice, Gimnasia, Newell’s, Argentinos Juniors and Sarmiento de Junín, though the chances of Damonte’s staff were almost nonexistent because they had differences. that -6 goal. So, they became two places for four teams. Exciting.
To start, Lobo de la Plata would have to win to aim to reach fourth place and none other than the Estudiantes de la Plata in the quarterfinals. And Pipo did their thing. And they received a blow after two minutes. They haven’t warmed up yet Pablo Pérez scored 1-0 for Leprosy in just two minutes of play. It seemed like another black afternoon in the Forest, but fifteen minutes later, Pipo Gorosito’s staff tied the score. And then Paraguayan Sosa scored twice to get Leprosy out of the conversation. With 3 points, Gimnasia added 24 and still had to wait for the result of Argentinos vs. Union. I wish I could not get …
El Bicho is also starting to fulfill, but things are going to get complicated, in a match that has it all. In just six minutes, Torren made it 1-0 on Penalty so Gabriel Milito’s staff were among those who made it to the quarterfinals. But, much is missing. And at minute 62 it all happened. Unión reached the tie, but Mastrángelo disallowed the goal because he saw a foul in the attack. But in the middle there was a penalty so, after analyzing the play in the VAR, the man in black claimed the tie. So, the Bicho was left behind due to the partial victory of Defense and Justice and the victory of the Wolf. But, seven from the end, Kevin Mac Allister scored the winning goal that put the Paternal team in the playoffs. His rival in the quarterfinals? A Students-Argentines will arrive at Stadium One of La Plata.
With Florencio Varela, Defense and Justice seem to have the most accessible party and rely on themselves to qualify. But things weren’t that simple, aside from the fact that 10 minutes into the second half Frías opened the scoring. 1-0 and inside. But Beccacece’s staff were unable to extend and, by the end of the game, Lucas Barrios had several chances to tie the game. Pushed by his men, Halcón kept the result and would be Boca’s rival in the quarterfinals in perhaps the most complex key matchup due to the caliber of the two teams.
