Mac Allister and Lanzillotta clashed head-on.
Argentinos Juniors received the Unión, one of the most complicated teams in the league, at Diego Armando Maradona in a grudging match to see who gets into the supplies of the surprising Atlético Tucumán de Pusineri.
A friction match was expected, with a lot of friction between the two teams. But what was not expected was what happened about 30 minutes into the first half when two players head on violently. And even less if you take into account that it was two players from the same team who hit each other and when they had the entire playing field at their mercy.
It was 28 minutes when the Union field rejected a ball that gained altitude and both Bicho’s right-back and his goalkeeper ran to look for him as if they were rivals. Or as if none of them had seen their partner running in the direction of the ball. Thus, in that blind run, Lanzillotta and Kevin Mac Allister collided with their heads so violently that they fell slumped to the ground.
After spending a few minutes on the ground with medical assistance, the first to get up was the defender, who showed an incredible recovery considering the blow suffered. After a while the one who stood up was the goalkeeper, while the Argentine doctor showed him his hand and asked him: “How many fingers do you see?”, To which the goalkeeper joked, showing that he was ready to return.
