Independent had control of the game, but lacked ideas and precision and finally had to settle for drawing 0-0 as a visitor against Sarmiento of Junín, a result that allowed him to remain among those classified at the South American Cupat the beginning of the twentieth date of the Professional League of Football (LPF).
With this result, the “Red” remains within the zone of those classified for that competition, but could not close the distance to fully get into one of the places without having to pay attention to other matches of the day.
On the other hand, Sarmiento continues adding to the averages for next season, since in this season there will be no relegations, but with so many draws his progress is very slow to avoid falling to the second division.
In a match played at the Eva Perón stadium, the host started better, with greater presence on the field of play and constant advances towards the Independiente area but without being able to break the lock in the background to hurt the visiting goalkeeper Rodrigo Rey.
The “Rojo” responded well standing back and with quick exits with the Chilean Felipe Loyola on the right and Federico Mancuello on the left wing, he even had the clearest chance when the midfielder himself defined inside the area but was taken out on the line.
For the second half, Independiente dominated the entire match, with more possession in the rival field and more approaches, but the lack of ideas and precision in the last meters prevented them from damaging the goal defended by Lucas Acosta.
