Primera Nacional, Atlanta thrashed Gimnasia de Jujuy to go top alone | OneFootball

Bohemio showed no mercy in the clash between promotion contenders and became the sole leader of Primera Nacional’s Zone B

Matchday 17 of the 2026 Primera Nacional had one fixture circled in red. Facing each other were two of the teams battling near the top of Zone B, and everything pointed to a tight, intense match with little space.

However, the exact opposite happened.

Atlanta was vastly superior and thrashed Gimnasia de Jujuy 3-0 in a result that shook up the standings and confirmed the excellent form of the Villa Crespo side.

The goals in the win were scored by Alejandro Quintana, Jeremías Puch, and Córdoba native Christian Bernardi, capping off a commanding performance from a team that dominated from start to finish.

With this victory, Atlanta reached 30 points and became the sole leader of Zone B, while Gimnasia de Jujuy remained on 27 points and dropped to second place.

A blow that changes the table

The rout has a major impact on the promotion race. Not only because Atlanta beat a direct rival, but because they did it authoritatively and widened the gap at the top.

Bohemio also took advantage of a round in which several of its chasers still have to play and sent a clear message to the rest of the contenders: it wants to fight until the very end for a return to the top flight.
