Iván Tapia had scored a penalty for the local team with time expired, but Javier Toledo equalized for Israel Damonte’s team with a header in the end.
In a very flat game, with few arrivals and no emotions in the 90 minutes, Verde – who needed a point to stay in First – achieved their goal.
When they were already in extra time and everything seemed to indicate that it was ending 0-0, they grabbed Cristian Colman in the area and it was a penalty for Barracas, which Tapia converted into a goal. Two minutes later, Sarmiento looked for him and thanks to Toledo’s header he equalized and got the point he needed to be calm.
El Guapo played better in the first half and had the clearest, with a Facundo Mater header that hit the crossbar and went over the top.
In the second half, Barracas continued with the initiative. Colmán finished twice on goal, although the shots did not present great difficulties to goalkeeper Sebastián Meza. Then came the emotion of the end and a fair draw.
Both teams are reassured that their main objective, to continue in the highest category of Argentine soccer, has been fulfilled and they even have a mathematical chance of reaching the Copa Sudamericana.
