San Lorenzo asserted his scrolls as leader of the championship of the Professional League de Fútbol (LPF) by defeating today with authority Sarmiento de Resistenciafrom Federal A, 3-0, to qualify for the round of 16, final of the Argentine Cupin a match played at the Colón stadium, in Santa Fe.
In that next instance, those from Boedo will face the winner of the key between Platense and Defensores de Belgrano, from the First National.
The resistance of the Chacos, that is to say, the fact of playing as equals, lasted during the first quarter of an hour, until San Lorenzo began to handle the ball in the hands of its natural driver, Agustín Martegani, and then the actions of risk began to fly over the area defended by the goalkeeper Emilio Di Fulvio.
And the “fly over” thing was strictly adjusted to what happened in that first half in which the “Cyclone” literally liquidated the game and took away expectations for the final part.
It is that the opening of the marker came from a corner kick from the left launched by the aforementioned Martegani that the Colombian central defender Rafael Pérez connected through the air, with a spectacular “hit” from the right, to begin to give justice to the marker.
This was the first goal for former Talleres, from Córdoba, with the Barça shirt, while the scorer of the second in that first stage, Nicolás Blandi (he started again in the first in San Lorenzo after four years and also wore the ribbon as captain), he did it precisely with a header after another cross from the left, but this time launched by Malcom Braida.
There were 43 minutes left in the final period and when almost immediately everyone went to the locker room, Barca’s conformity and aurirroja’s resignation presaged what finally ended up happening, that the final 45 were played “by regulation”.
It’s just that just started the complement, after 6 minutes Blandi scored again to become the fifth top scorer in the Argentine Cup with 10 goals, after the six scored with the San Lorenzo shirt and the remaining four with the Boca Juniors shirt.
And by the time that second half began, the coach of those from Chaco, Leonardo Fernández, had arranged two changes together, entering Rodrigo Montenegro for Juan Manuel Torres and Gonzalo Cañete for Fabrizio Palma, who is the nephew of Omar Palma, a glory of Rosario Central who also knew how to show off his quality as a “ten” for River Plate during the 80s and 90s.
The game then became for those in two categories less sporadic attempts to discount with the climbs on the left by Luciano Lapetina and the solo offensive efforts of Franco Olego, the former All Boys (the entity from Floresta turned 110 today) who came to convert the two goals of the away victory over Boca Unidos, in Corrientes, last weekend, on the first date of Federal A.
That match between two teams with the same red and yellow baton shirts marked the beginning of the true objective that the Resistencia team has and which is to reach the First National once and for all, an objective that they have been close to achieving in recent years. but it has been denied, despite frequently reaching decisive instances and forming good teams year after year.
To do this and continue to become strong in this competition, next Sunday Sarmiento will host Sol de América, from Formosa, starting at 5:00 p.m.
For San Lorenzo, obviously, what is coming is the consolidation in the first place of the Professional League, and for this they must become strong on Monday at 6:30 p.m. in the Parque de la Independencia, in Rosario, against the irregular Newell’s Old Boys.
For that match he will not be able to count on one of his goalscorers, Andrés Vombergar, who will be traveling to Europe to join the Slovenian team, who will face two games as important as “a priori” accessible against Kazakhstan and San Marino, for the Qualifiers for the Euro 2024.
But for now, today Rubén Darío Insúa’s team knew how to put everything in its place with a clear and concrete victory over Sarmiento, and now everyone will return to their own things.
