The Academy did not have the support of its fans due to the sanction by APREVIDE following the reception against Flamengo.

Duván Vergara scored the only goal of the match at 40 minutes into the game after a masterful assist from Facundo Cambeses from his area.

Racing is now fourth in zone A, secured a spot for the next Sudamericana and still has chances for the Libertadores.

The Academy will close the regular phase as a visitor against Newell’s, while Defensa y Justicia will host Independiente Rivadavia.
