Two Goalless Matches

The first match ended in a draw between Aldosivi and Defensa y Justicia, with barely any approaches to the goal areas. A point that serves little for both teams.

The other match that ended without excitement was in Santa Fe. Unión hosted Platense, filled with new reinforcements. However, there were indeed great chances that Tatengue couldn't capitalize on. A draw that didn't deserve to be.

Banfield and Huracán in a Fierce Battle

At Lencho Sola, El Táladro hosted Huracán. Trogio's team took the lead with a goal from Mauro Méndez, the first of the tournament, but in the second half, Jordy Caicedo equalized.

The highlight was the expulsion of Peralta, who delivered a wrestling-style kick.

Gimnasia and Vélez Debuted with Wins

In Santiago Del Estero, Gimnasia de Mendoza debuted with a smile as Valentino Simoni scored the only goal of the match.

Meanwhile, in Córdoba, a very contested match between Instituto and Vélez took place, which El Fortín won in added time thanks to a goal by Tobías Andrada.

Tomorrow there will be four matches where San Lorenzo debuts against Lanús, Independiente hosts the champion, Estudiantes, Talleres will face Newell's, and Atlético Tucumán visits Independiente Rivadavia.
