Newell’s end their losing streak, claim first win of the tournament | OneFootball

In a busy week, Newell’s achieved the relief it so desperately needed. At the Coloso Marcelo Bielsa, they won 1-0 against Gimnasia de Mendoza and ended a historic streak of ten matches without a win, the worst start in the club's history.

Kudelka's team improved as the match progressed in a tight game, where it was difficult to create clear chances but they never stopped trying. On the other side, the Mendoza team also had their opportunities and forced Williams Barlasina to respond on more than one occasion. When the draw seemed inevitable, Walter Mazzantti appeared 40 minutes into the second half to break the deadlock and unleash the relief for Newell’s. The forward seized his chance and gave three crucial points to a team that had been struggling.

The end was tense, Armando Méndez saw red towards the end, but Newell’s managed to hold onto the lead and secure a victory that was as necessary as it was hard-fought. Thus, the Lepra.
