San Lorenzo beat Central de San Carlos, reach Liga Esperancina semis | OneFootball

The remaining quarterfinal match of the Liga Esperancina Clausura Tournament in the first division was played last night. In Esperanza, the final of the Apertura between San Lorenzo and Central San Carlos was repeated.

In the 90 minutes, neither team was able to gain an advantage despite the opportunities created. It ended in a goalless draw, forcing a penalty shootout to decide the winner.

It was there that San Lorenzo’s goalkeeper, Nacho Fernández, shone by saving two penalties—the third and fourth of the series—leaving the visiting team with no chance. The local team’s penalty takers didn’t miss either.

As a result, San Lorenzo gets their revenge and knocks out the team that had beaten them in the Apertura final, and Nacho Fernández also enjoys some personal redemption after the disappointments of the competition.

Now, in the final stage of the LEF First Division Tournament, the four best teams remain, including three from the city of Esperanza: San Lorenzo, AD Juventud, and Bartolomé Mitre. The other is Argentino de San Carlos. Based on the positions obtained in the qualifying stage, the semifinal matchups will be as follows:
