Gimnasia de Mendoza top of Zone B in Primera Nacional | OneFootball

Gimnasia y Esgrima de Mendoza defeated Gimnasia de Jujuy 1-0 at the Víctor Legrotaglie, in a key match for the definition of Zone B in the Primera Nacional championship. Imanol González scored the only goal of the match during added time.

The Mensana played better but couldn’t break through the organization of the visiting team. Ariel Broggi’s side had the clearest chances overall, thanks to Ferreyra and a couple of headers from Imanol González that miraculously didn’t end up in the net.

It was in the second half, a hard-fought and scrappy period, when Imanol himself got his revenge, picking up the rebound from a header in the box and with a precise shot sealed the only goal of the match.

Broggi’s team are now the sole leaders of Zone B in the tournament with 56 points, two more than their rivals this afternoon. El Lobo has four matches left, two of them in Mendoza, and they are within reach and dreaming of playing another final for promotion, which seems closer than ever.

Meanwhile, Gimnasia de Jujuy, who remain on 54 points, will now face another away match, this time in Mataderos against Nueva Chicago, a tough venue where the northern team could drop more points and the Mendoza side could continue to widen the gap.
