At the Malvinas Argentinas stadium and for matchday 8 of the Apertura, River drew 1-1 with Independiente Rivadavia, in Marcelo Escudero’s second stint as interim coach after Gallardo’s departure and while awaiting the arrival of Eduardo Coudet.

La Lepra opened the scoring at 17 minutes into the first half with a stunning goal from Gonzalo Ríos.

El Millonario responded and at the 37th minute, with a header from Gonzalo Montiel, tied the match.

In the second half, River showed more initiative but lacked the depth to break the tie. They also claimed a possible penalty for a handball by Studer that referee Facundo Tello did not award.

It ended 1-1 in Mendoza, with points shared and a team still in transition while awaiting a new coach.
