Unión’s patchy start to the Torneo Apertura: check out the stats | OneFootball

The thrashing against Gimnasia de Mendoza stands out, for now, as the great exception in a tournament start that is far from what Unión had imagined. In four matches played, the team has earned just four points out of a possible twelve, with an effectiveness of 33.3%, the result of one win, one draw, and two losses.

Numerically, Tatengue has scored five goals and conceded three, although this statistic is quickly put into perspective when considering that four of those goals came in a single match. Before and after that perfect night at the 15 de Abril stadium, the team struggled to create clear chances, maintain intensity, and find continuity in their play.

The defeats away from Santa Fe, combined with the home draw, have marked an irregular path, with performances that have raised more questions than certainties. The main concern lies in the team’s collective performance, especially after the lackluster showing against Central Córdoba in Santiago del Estero, where Unión looked flat, lacking depth and offensive presence, and ended up paying dearly for a defensive error.

The coaching staff knows that the margin for error is shrinking and that the next match against San Lorenzo will be key to starting to turn this poor start around.
