Hurricane extended their lead at the top of the competition tonight after defeating away from home by 1-0 Rosario Central and thus take three vital points from the Gigante de Arroyito, in a match for the eighth date of the Professional League Football Federation (LPF).
The only goal of the match came 29 minutes into the first half, when Walter Mazzantti took advantage of a defensive lapse to score and give “Globo” the lead.
In this way, Huracán is the leader of the tournament with 18 points, waiting to see what Unión can do, which must complete the day against Racing and also has a pending match against Rosario Central, which after the defeat this Saturday is fifteenth with 9 points.
The first half was balanced, with Huracán taking advantage of its clearest opportunity.
Rosario Central, for its part, tried to react and had some chances, but was unable to convert.
In the second half, “Canalla” made several changes in search of the tie, entering Emanuel Coronel, Lautaro Giaccone, Jaminton Campaz, Facundo Mallo and Enzo Copetti.
However, despite their efforts and several opportunities, including a shot from Agustín Módica that went just wide, they were unable to beat Huracán’s goalkeeper, Lucas Chaves, who was solid between the posts.
Huracán also made strategic changes to maintain the advantage, bringing in Eric Ramírez, Héctor Fértoli, Leandro Garate, César Ibáñez and Agustín Toledo.
These variations helped maintain the team’s defensive structure and control Rosario Central’s attempts.
On the next matchday, “Globo” will host Racing Club on Saturday, August 3, in an attempt to defeat one of the title contenders.
On the Rosario Central side, they will visit Gimnasia y Esgrima (La Plata) on Monday, August 5th at the “Bosque” to try to recover.
