Racing does not stop and River recovers

Racing wins again and makes history

who stops Racing? That is one of the great questions that the League Cup. When will Independent cease to be irregular? That is one of the unknowns that Argentine football also gives away. How far will it continue to fall San Lorenzo? That is another question of the championship that is played in the country in which it was born Leo Messi.

The big three face different realities, which were enhanced by their presentations this Saturday. To graph the moments of each one with an emoji, a smiling face would perfectly represent each other. Racingan indifferent grimace would symbolize the actuality of Independiente and a very sad face would accurately synthesize San Lorenzo.

The Racing by Fernando Gago is becoming more and more assertive. She’s on a roll and she doesn’t want to break it. He already has 12 games without losing. Now, in the Cilindro de Avellaneda, he beat Unión, who had also been rounding off a good championship. It was 1-0 with a goal by Enzo Copetti, who deflected a powerful shot into the net but without aim that Fabricio Domínguez had launched.

It did not shine or provoke applause Racing, but he went through the 90 minutes with conviction, with solidity, with authority. He delivered much more in the first half than in the second. However, he was never overpowered. And in the end he deserved that victory that helps him get into history. It was the ninth consecutive win. So the team of Fernando Gago He equaled the best record of successes in a row in the history of the club during professionalism, equaling the mythical formation he led John Joseph Pizzuti in 1967.

Two other greats who seek peace had played before. Independiente, with its highly questioned leadership and a team under construction, tied 2-2 with the tough Columbus in Santa Fe. He lost twice due to shouts from Santa Fe crowned by Lucas Beltrán and Luis Rodríguez (beautiful free kick). However, he matched it with goals from Domingo Blanco and Leandro Benegas. The result for the Red is not bad, but it does not close him thinking about adding to classify among the first four of his group.

what of San Lorenzoyes, it is worse. He only won one game all season. His coach Pedro Troglio resigned on the previous date. Its president Marcelo Tinelli still confirms that he will do after his one-year license that will expire in May. The Cyclone lives on the verge of bursting. With Fernando Berón as interim DT, it seemed that he found some relief because he beat a Platense team that had gone six dates without winning 2-0 at the end of the first half. But San Lorenzo hesitated, ran out of oxygen, conceded two goals and ended in a tie that was received as a defeat.

The other game on Saturday ratified the great moment of Estudiantes, who thrashed Barracas Central 6-1 as a visitor. Before the first half hour they were already leading 4-0. And in the second half, although he played it with a man less due to the expulsion of Emmanuel Mas, he stretched the difference. The half dozen celebrations were drawn by Gustavo Del Prete (2), Manuel Castro, Mauro Boselli, Leandro Díaz and Brian Orosco.

Racing leads Group A with 24 points. River and Newell’s have 19. Defense and Justice, 17. Meanwhile, Estudiantes is the leader in Group B with 21 units. Tiger and Aldosivi they add up to 19. Boca has 16. Those eight teams would play the playoffs today. Today the tenth date will close with five games. They will play Boca – Lanús, Banfield – River, Defense and Justice – Atlético Tucumán, Godoy Cruz – Vélez and Argentinos – Talleres.
