Unión reserves beat Belgrano away, gearing up for the play-offs | OneFootball

Unión defeated Belgrano 2-0 at the Armando Pérez complex in Córdoba, thus closing the group stage of the Copa Proyección in fourth place with 28 points, securing a spot in the playoffs of the tournament.

Nicolás Vazzoler’s team suffered throughout the match but managed to be clinical. Federico Gomes Gerth was the standout player, saving Unión on multiple occasions, both in the first half and in the second. It was precisely in the second half when the red-and-white side found the advantage, in one of their first clear chances. Juan Ignacio Peralta opened the scoring after a great play by Solbes, who entered the box, laid it off to Pedano, and the latter set up Peralta to score the first goal at the 36th minute of the second half.

Near the end of the match, it was Thiago Fernández who beat Matias Daniale and, at 48', sealed the definitive 2-0. In this way, Unión heads into the round of 16 in a strong position, where for now they will face Atlético Tucumán at the 15 de Abril stadium next week.
