River could not sustain the initial difference and ended up equalizing 1-1 in front of Sarmiento In Junín, in a meeting played by the twelfth date of the Opening Tournament 2025 of the Professional League.
Marcelo Gallardo’s team began in advantage with a goal by Miguel Borja at 30 minutes of the first half, but the place reacted on time and got the draw through Juan Insaurralde in the absence of a minute for the complement, in an afternoon that ended up being more demanding than expected for the “millionaire” team.
In the second part, River made several changes looking for depth, with the entry of Colidio, Rojas, Driussi and Meza, but failed to break the defensive lock of the premises. Sarmiento, on the other hand, took advantage of spaces and had his clear chances with auctions of Magnín and Giménez, who forced Armani to intervene.
The final stretch of the party was marked by interruptions, repeated and controversial offenses, as an assumption of Colidio that was reviewed and dismissed by the VAR. Despite both attempts, the result was not modified and the draw left a bitter taste in River, which sought to consolidate at the top of the tournament.
With this result, the “Millionaire” leaves valuable points along the way and failed to be the only escort of Rosario Central in Zone B, so it is in fourth place with 21 units.
Sarmiento for his part adds confidence and reaches 10 points, only two from the classification zone to the play-offs.
