Tigre snatch a point against el Bicho, stay in the qualification spots | OneFootball

In a match marked by parity and effectiveness in aerial play, Tigre and Argentinos Juniors drew 1-1 at the José Dellagiovanna stadium. The match, corresponding to the 11th round of the 2026 Apertura Tournament, left the "Matador" at the forefront of Zone B.

A first half of approaches

The first half lacked strong emotions until the end. Ignacio Russo warned after a recovery in the "Bicho's" exit, but his shot went high. Shortly after, Iván Morales had the clearest chance for the visitors by eluding goalkeeper Felipe Zenobio, but he ran out of angle and couldn't push the ball into the goal.

At the end of the half, Santiago López challenged Brayan Cortés with a good individual maneuver on the left.

The goals came from the sky

The score opened just as the second half began. At 2 minutes, a precise corner to the far post found Francisco Álvarez, who with a powerful header put Argentinos ahead 1-0.

However, the reaction from Diego Dabove's team was not long in coming. At 16 minutes, Martín Garay sent a chipped cross from the right for Alfio Oviedo, who with a header bouncing off the ground, sealed the final equalizer.

Open ending at the "Coliseum"

Tigre was close to taking all three points at 44 minutes, when Elías Cabrera attempted a backheel flick after a cross from López, but the ball grazed the post. With this draw, the "Matador" is fourth in their group with 17 points, while Nicolás Diez's team has 11 points in tenth position.
