Although the two were eliminated, at least the “Guapo” managed to raise his performance after the three consecutive defeats he suffered in his first presentations in the highest category of Argentine soccer and this time he added three important units to improve his average.
On the other hand, the “Tomba” concluded the contest in the 27th position in the table of averages, so now it is in the relegation zone, without winning as a visitor and with the loss of the undefeated Fabio Orsi-Sergio technical duo. Gómez, who since they took charge of the team had achieved one win and three draws.
The success of the “white and red” materialized with the definitions of Pablo Mouche and Bruno Sepúlveda, in the first half, and Neri Bandiera, in the second. Ezequiel Bullaude tied temporarily for the “tricolor” in the first stage.
The match featured a quick opening by Barracas Central, which applied high pressure from the start, which led Paraguayan goalkeeper Juan Espínola to poorly put the ball into play, marked by Bruno Sepúlveda.
So it was that Facundo Mater intercepted the ball to give it to Sepúlveda, who was returning from the visiting area, who extended for Mouche’s entry from the right, which he defined with a free goal (2 min).
From there, intense actions originated, in which Godoy Cruz tried to prevail in pursuit of equality, with good judgment in the gestation area, but with few lights at the time of the definition.
For their part, those led by Alfredo Berti delayed to contain the attack of the adversary and prepared for rapid responses, which did not find the correct culmination either.
Suddenly, a very good offensive combination of “Tomba” emerged, culminating in Bullaude receiving a cross from Martín Ojeda, in the half-moon of the opponent’s area, and with a touch with the inside of his left foot he placed the ball next to the right spout of Rodrigo Saracho’s goal, to mark equality (27 min).
With that, the Mendoza team came to predominate in the game and in the dangerous charges, however it was the local team that uneven again, this time through Sepúlveda, who with a withering header after a corner kick executed by Iván Tapia , violated Espinola (38 min).
At the beginning of the second episode, the visiting cast appeared without right back Néstor Breitenbuch, as a result of a left knee ailment, replaced by Manuel Llano; and without Matías Ramírez, due to muscular discomfort, replaced by Tadeo Allende.
While neither short nor lazy, those from the Buenos Aires team knew how to quickly extend the advantage again, at the dawn of complement, with a swift and skilful maneuver by Bandiera to define with a low shot to the left of the goalkeeper Espínola (5 min) .
Until the end, Godoy Cruz fought to find equality, which eluded him because the winner was able to sustain the advantage obtained to keep three valuable points in order to ensure permanence in the first division.
