Lanús drew 1-1 with Estudiantes de La Plata at home in one of the two matches that kicked off the twentieth day of an Argentine tournament that maintains as comfortable leader River Plate.
Leandro Díaz opened the account for the visit, while Ignacio Malcorra, from a penalty, equalized for a ‘Granate’ who stayed in 35 units to eight of River Plate, which this Sunday will receive the Patronato de Paraná in search of taking a new step towards his crown number 37 in local tournaments.
