Unión’s main strength in the opening six matches | OneFootball

When it comes to doing the math, earning eight points out of 18 at stake isn’t so bad, even though Unión lost both matches they played as visitors and couldn’t win two others at home.

Unión and its main strength in these six rounds

Tate’s efficiency stands at 44.4%, but with the particularity that, out of the six matches played, four were at the 15 de Abril stadium.

For now, the red-and-white team sits in 8th place in Zone A with eight points, within the playoff zone. But now they will have to face two matches as visitors.

The truth is that, beyond the points obtained, the main strength the team has shown at the start of the Apertura Tournament is undoubtedly its defensive solidity.

And the numbers speak for themselves: Unión kept a clean sheet in four of the six matches played. Furthermore, they are among the three teams in Zone A that have conceded the fewest goals and have not conceded any at the 15 de Abril stadium.

The only team surpassing them in this regard is Estudiantes, who conceded two goals in six matches, while Platense conceded three goals, the same as Tate.

In a press conference after defeating Aldosivi, Leonardo Madelón praised the defensive solidity and, in light of what has been happening, it is undoubtedly the team’s hallmark at the start of this competition.
