Argentinos Jrs turn it around against Belgrano, reach Copa Argentina final | OneFootball

This Thursday night, Argentinos Juniors defeated Belgrano 2-1 in the semifinal and secured their spot in the 2025 Copa Argentina final. With goals from Hernán López Muñoz and Tomás Molina, despite the opening goal by Lucas Zelarayán, the Bicho left the Pirata behind and now awaits the decisive match against the winner of River or Independiente Rivadavia from Mendoza, who play this Friday.

In the first half, the team from Córdoba gained a partial advantage with a true stunner from Chino Zelarayán, although it was aided by a deflection that improved the trajectory and prevented a possible response from Sergio Romero. Thus, the team from the interior went into the break leading on the scoreboard with a solid first half, but then everything went in the opposite direction…

In the second half, Argentinos Juniors was much better in every aspect. Through collective plays, they found the equalizer with López Muñoz's goal and the Bicho only improved as the minutes passed. From a set piece, they earned a penalty and converted it into a goal. There, the top scorer of the edition took charge, executed it excellently, and unleashed the frenzy of La Paternal's fans.

As things stand, Argentinos Juniors qualified for the 2025 Copa Argentina final. This Friday, the remaining semifinal between River and Independiente Rivadavia from Mendoza will be played at the Mario Alberto Kempes Stadium in the City of Córdoba, and based on that result, the Bicho's opponent in the decisive match to lift the title and secure a ticket to the Copa Libertadores will be revealed.
