The result left Arsenal coach Leonardo Madelón on the tightrope, who could present his resignation on Monday when meeting with the leadership, despite the support of his managers; at the same time that it prevented Platense from climbing to the top of the contest.
Ayrton Costa signaled the opening for the “Squid” and Facundo Kruspzky, the equality for the “Arse”, both in the second half.
The result kept Platense undefeated in the tournament with 3 successes and 5 draws, in addition to placing it third with 14 units, two behind the current leader Atlético Tucumán; while Arsenal added 7 dates without losing, with 2 wins and 5 draws, to place eleventh with 11 points.
The development of the first part offered intense and balanced actions, with the alternation of both tables in the predominance of the game, although both with little depth and in which the tactical device deprived more than creativity.
Arsenal, midway through the stage, had to make the first change due to a left knee sprain suffered by left back Joaquín Pombo, who was replaced by Ignacio Gariglio -from a loan from Estudiantes de La Plata-, at 23 minutes.
Only in the final minutes did the game come out of its lethargy due to the best collective offensive combination of the host, which Facundo Kruspzky culminated with a cross shot, which the visiting goalkeeper, Marcos Ledesma, knew how to control.
Later, Platense arrived with a quick reply finished by Federico Gino, with a violent and creeping shot that Alejandro Medina contained in a lucid intervention.
At the beginning of the complement those led by Madelón impressed as more determined to seek the opening, with some somewhat dangerous arrivals.
But the one who opened the scoring was the “Squid”: after a corner kick that produced a series of rebounds in the local area, Costa appeared to beat Medina with a low shot, at 6 minutes.
In this way, the defender, who arrived on loan from Independiente, scored his first goal with the “Marrón” shirt.
From there, with more drive than ideas and by taking advantage of the defensive disorder of “Arse”, those led by Omar De Felippe tried to extend the lead to close the game with some risk charges for Medina, which he managed to conjure up.
Gradually, those from Sarandí reacted to seek equality, with more impetus than an orderly game, and thus they achieved it through a cross from Cristian Chimino, which Kruspzky connected with a header to beat Ledesma with a low and right delivery. at 31 minutes.
As much as the two teams tried to keep the victory, the friction of the actions and the lack of precision to define the charges generated, justice was done with the tie.
On the next date, the ninth, Arsenal will visit Racing, next Tuesday at 7:00 p.m.; while on the same day, but at 4:30 p.m., Platense will receive Central Córdoba, from Santiago del Estero.
