Vélez tied, as a visitor, 0-0 against Godoy Cruz, in a match corresponding to the twenty-fourth round of the Professional Soccer League, played tonight at the Malvinas Argentinas stadium, in Mendoza.
In a lackluster match, El Fortín found the clearest chances to take the three points with two good actions in the second stage by Jalil Elias and Michael Santos, but failed to convert.
With this result, those led by Gustavo Quinteros could not take the three points and increase their advantage as leaders of the championship with respect to the guard, Huracán.
Likewise, Vélez accumulated 45 points and was two points behind the Globe with three days remaining to find out the next champion.
