Racing on the bench with Arias saves, he wakes up with Vecchio and beats Patronato with a great goal from Hauche

The blue and white soul returns to the body. And revive racing. Because Patronato was brave, even when the game was zero to zero. Because the hope of winning the championship, the one that seemed to vanish in the midst of so many irregularities, is still intact. For that triumph that was held in the hands of Gabriel Arias and the magic of Emiliano Vecchio. For those three points that lead him to the top of the Professional League.

The Academy he sowed, but did not reap in the first half. She planted seeds in the front area, but nothing blossomed. He had half scoring chances at that half but he failed to make his mark on the net. Facundo Altamirano and his lack of precision in completing every move prevented him from gaining an advantage he deserved in terms of play volume, especially in the first quarter of an hour.

With seven victims, three for disqualification (Carlos Alcaraz, Jonathan Gómez and Aníbal Moreno), two for misconduct (Edwin Cardona and Leonel Miranda) and two for injuries (Gonzalo Piovi and Matías Rojas), Fernando Gago had to resort to other interpreters and decided to change the scheme. Far from favoring his own ideas on names, he opted for a 5-2-3 in which the teams were released.

Yes, especially Facundo Mura and Eugenio Mena went deeper. The generation was headed by Emiliano Vecchio, who connected the lines, even starting from the center of the pitch, an area he shared with Maicol Quiroz, a 20-year-old boy who tried to be a tightrope walker. Rosario had a partner: Gabriel Hauche. In this context, the Demon did not move much on the outside, but he returned to assist the two center forwards.

The attack is divided between Maxi Romero – the surprise – and Enzo Copetti. They rotated, one to the left, the other more centered. And the central defenders, basically Emiliano Insúa and Jonathan Galván, led the attacks from the rear.

the ride was very aggressive, but it didn’t have a definition. In a minute, Hauche lost it. He shook his left and Altamirano sent him to the corner with his fingertips. Right away, him Bad puts a barbaric center for Romero’s head and the shot goes a little wide. Later Mura overflows, Romero bounces him, Vecchio tries from middle distance, to place, and once again the visiting number one answers. Later Insúa arrives from the back, Vecchio gives Romero an assist and his shot is still missing a few centimeters from the post. The Magnate runs a firm ball, Insúa combs and Hauche fails to push him into the goal. The attacker himself assisted Romero and, hand in hand, he failed against Altamirano, who covered himself with his legs.

All of this produced Racing, but it became frustrating. And Patronato, who relied on his goalkeeper and an impeccable Carlos Quintana, began to find a green light through an unbalanced midfield and behind the wings. With a holding percentage that didn’t reach 40%, the entrerrianos got worried. And they had two very clear ones, both at the feet of Axel Rodríguez. Arias’s covers were remarkable.

In the second half, Patronato found too many structures to reach the Biancoceleste captain’s field. Well Juan Barinaga and Justo Giani. And the game went back and forth. Stripped of inhibitions, they have left gaps. And Arias once again showed all his ability to support the result. Axel Rodríguez could not with the goalkeeper. Giani, neither of them. With extraordinary interventions he lowered the curtain on his arch.

He looked groggy, but revived with a great Racing goal. Starting on one side of Mena, Vecchio and Hauche put together a wall and the center behind Rosario finds a precise touch of Copetti to leave the Bad in front of the goal and define with a corner kick, almost like a penalty in motion.

The game was interrupted. And it was played from door to door. With Arias as the protagonist. With Vecchio driving. With Patronato defeated, but with his head held high and a shot at the last moment on the post, by Alexander Sosa. The races had nothing left, but he cheers, of course. After all, matches are won with goals and championships with points. Details can be changed during the week.
