The “Red” took advantage of the striker’s hand Leandro Fernandezthe figure of the match and who opened the scoring with a crossed left-footed shot from outside the area that defeated Leonardo Burián’s resistance, while in the complement he stretched the difference Leandro Benegas with the complicity of his attack partner.
Avellaneda’s team went from highest to lowest but deserved to reach the break with a larger difference because the player himself Benegas could not take advantage of three very clear situations in the initial stage, while Velez He recently bothered his rival about the closing with a free kick that forced Milton Alvarez to respond with a formidable save.
Already in the complement, again Fernandez was key, although this time without scoring: after a pass from Benegas, the attacker crossed in front of Burian and, without touching the ball, he let it pass and confused the goalkeeper so that Independiente went 2-0 up.
However, despite the advantage, Julio César Falcioni’s team continued to dominate and Vélez barely rehearsed a few slightly dangerous approaches that ran into a firm Álvarez.
In this way and calmly, Independiente won again as in the last two dates of the Professional League and got into the quarterfinals, where the rival will be Talleres de Córdoba, which has just eliminated Newell’s with a victory by 2 to 1, so it will collide with “Rojo” next Wednesday from 2:00 p.m.
