San Lorenzo could not continue on the right path and the Institute remains in the fight

Institute achieved a valuable 2-0 victory against Saint Lawrencein a match corresponding to the seventeenth date of the Professional League of Soccer, played tonight in Córdoba.

The goals were scored by Gonzalo Requena, at 39 minutes of the first half, and by Ignacio Russo at 41 minutes of the complement.

With this victory, the Córdoba team reached fourth position, with a total of 28 units, eight behind the leader Vélez.

In the first half, the local team dominated, generating several clear opportunities that turned the Ciclón goalkeeper, Gastón “Chila” Gómez, into a figure. Despite their interventions, Instituto found the advantage in the 39th minute, when left back Jonathan Bay launched a cross after a rebound and defender Gonzalo Requena defined by pushing the ball at the far post.

Leandro Romagnoli’s team showed no immediate reaction, although they managed to create a clear chance with Nahuel Bustos, which was cleared in the six-yard box by Requena. However, Instituto maintained control of the match and did not let San Lorenzo get comfortable on the field, so “Gloria” continued looking for the second goal, taking advantage of the rival’s lack of precision and defensive inattention.

In the second half, San Lorenzo had its clearest opportunity to tie with Francisco Fydriszewski, but could not achieve it.

Instituto’s dominance did not falter, and it was Ignacio Russo from the substitute bench who sealed the game in the 41st minute, finishing without a mark after a good pass from Jeremías Lázaro. This second goal sealed the victory, leaving the visiting team without a response.

Gastón Gómez was the highlight of the “Ciclón”, with several key saves that prevented an even greater difference. However, this was not enough to stop the fall of the team, which is currently in 24th place in the Annual Table, 12 points away from the qualification zone for the Copa Sudamericana.

For its part, Instituto has established itself at the top of the table, placing fourth in the championship and momentarily entering the qualification zone for international cups, with 45 points. This victory leaves them only eight units behind the leader Vélez in the Professional Soccer League, which allows them to dream of fighting for the top positions.
