Vietto scores, Cuello shines as «Ciclón» return to winning ways | OneFootball

After the setback in the derby and the low level shown against Unión, Damián Ayude's team regained their smile by defeating Estudiantes de Río Cuarto 2-0. Although the "Cyclone" suffered more than expected in the second half, they managed to seal the deal against a Córdoba team that still hasn't tasted victory in the tournament.

The match broke open right at the start. At 1', Matías De Rittis broke through on the right against a sleepy defense and delivered a precise cross for Luciano Vietto, who only had to push it in. With the 1-0, San Lorenzo comfortably controlled the first half, taking advantage of the spaces left by the visitors.

However, the script changed in the second half. San Lorenzo relaxed, and Estudiantes (RC) grew, pushing their lines forward and turning the local defense into a bundle of nerves. The equalizer was close, but at 40' of the second half, Alexis Cuello fought for a ball in attack, outmaneuvered the central defenders, and finished with finesse past Lastra to seal the definitive 2-0.
