The match ended goalless and leaves both teams out of the continental competition positions
Newell’s and Arsenal copied the result, Tigre drew 2-2 with Sarmiento de Junín and Aldosivi defeated Barracas Central at home by 0-2
San Lorenzo tied this Tuesday 0-0 with Godoy Cruz during the twenty-third day of the Argentine Professional Soccer League Tournament and complicated their chances of qualifying for the 2023 Copa Sudamericana, while Tiger matched 2-2 with Sarmiento of Junin. Tomba and San Lorenzo played a close game, but without the possibility of breaking the equality, something that will end up being expensive for both, since they move away from the necessary positions -in the annual table- to get a place in the South American. As a result of the tie, Godoy Cruz was in eighth position in the second phase of the league with 34 points, while Ciclón reached 32 in position twelve in the table.
Tigre, for its part, began by losing the duel at the Eva Perón stadium in Junín, province of Buenos Aires, due to striker Javier Toledo de Sarmiento, who took advantage of the service of a free kick to the small area to score the first goal, although he had to be attended to, since after scoring he hit his head with one of the posts. In any case, the Paraguayan winger, Blas Esteban Armoa Núñez, and center forward Facundo Colidio del Matador, turned the score around. Fortunately for the hosts, during the last five minutes of the match, striker Luciano Zanelli took advantage of a corner kick to level the match and save his team from defeat. Despite the draw, Tigre advanced to seventh place, while Sarmiento dropped to fifteenth with 34 and 30 points, respectively.
One of the clashes of this day that ended in victory was for Aldosivi by 0-2 in view of Central Barracks. Despite winning and breaking a six-match losing streak, it was not enough to get him out of last place with 23 points. El Guapo is twenty-eighth, ten places higher, with 28. Another disappointing match was that of Newell’s Old Boys Y Arsenalwhich ended 0-0 in Rosario, since Rosario dominated the first half, but failed to define and Sarandí’s men were unable to take advantage of the numerical advantage due to the expulsion of Ecuadorian Djorkaeff Reasco in the 13th minute. Velez Sarsfield Y banfield closed this day with a 1-0 in a brusque and forced match, a similar result for Rosario Central and Unión de Santa Fe, at the opening of the day last Monday.
This Wednesday the leader of the classification, Boca Juniors, will defend its position against Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata; shooting guard Atlético Tucumán will face Platense and River Plate will have to beat Estudiantes de la Plata if they want to overshadow their eternal rival.
