River draws and Boca-Newell’s is postponed

River draws and Boca-Newell's is postponed

The champion River plate drew 2-2 with Rosario Central in the premiere of the title achieved three days in advance, while Boca Juniors could not play at home this Sunday against Newell’s Old Boys because its La Bombonera field did not withstand the heavy rains and was flooded. It will be played on Tuesday.

This Sunday afternoon, at the Estadio Gigante de Arroyito, Rosario Central and River Plate gave a great show that ended 2-2, with two goals from Marco Ruben for the local and a double from Agustín Palavecino for the visit.

With these two targets, Ruben became the top scorer in the history of the Rosario club, surpassing the mark of Waldino Aguirre and reaching 99 goals with the Auriazul jacket.

However, then Palavecino arrived to round off his best performance since his arrival in River from Cali to score twice and give the Millionaire the tie, who had just become champion last Thursday against Racing at their stadium, the Monumental de Núñez.

With the uncertainty of the continuity or not of coach Marcelo Gallardo for next year, River, in addition to seeking to reap as many points as possible in this tournament, prepares for the dispute of a new title on December 18 when he faces Colón -Champion of the League Cup in the first semester- in the so-called Champions Trophy.

Another of the matches on Sunday was Boca’s presentation against Newell’s Old Boys, which was cut short by the flooding suffered by the Bombonera playing field, which forced referee Patricio Loustau to postpone the match to Tuesday.

For the team led by Sebastián Battaglia, these three days are decisive in the search for a direct place for the Copa Libertadores next year, while waiting for the final of the Argentine Cup, the last chance to win a title in 2021.

Defense and Justice tie and Argentinos Juniors win

The other results this Sunday registered the 1-1 draw of Defense and Justice with Colón and the 3-0 victory of Argentinos Juniors against Gimnasia and Esgrima La Plata.

On Saturday, at the beginning of this 23rd round, Estudiantes beat Vélez Sarsfield 1-0, guard Talleres beat Aldosivi 2-0 and Godoy Cruz defeated Patronato 0-3 away.

This Monday, in addition to the rescheduled Boca-Newell’s Old Boys there will be other duels with Racing-Lanús and Platense-Huracán, while on Tuesday they will play San Lorenzo-Sarmiento de Junín and Banfield-Independiente.
