N. Estrella Floresta1 - 1CR Parque Patricios

Nueva Estrella Floresta and Cruzada Parque Patricios settled for a tasteless draw at Floresta’s stadium, a 1-1 that left both sides feeling they had left points on the table. Two identical line-ups, two balanced approaches, and the result that almost always emerges from such parity: nobody wins, nobody loses, everyone goes home hungry. The match unfolded at that in-between pace where neither side dared to take too many risks, where chances were few and the referees’ decisions barely mattered.

Loly Olmedo put Floresta ahead with a goal that was no fluke in his area: the 24-year-old centre-back took advantage of an aerial ball and finished unopposed, seemingly, the kind of goal that sums up his profile as a footballer, someone who wins straightforward duels without much fuss. But Parque Patricios did not crumble. Chino Rossini, a Chaco-born forward rated 7.2, found a way to equalise in the second half with a goal that bordered on the fortuitous but which nobody could prevent. Both teams had spells in which they could have extended their lead, Parque Patricios perhaps with greater clarity in the closing stages, but the final twenty minutes were the sort of football that tires you more than it excites you.

Nahue Burrini, a 36-year-old goalkeeper who has spent almost a decade between the posts for Floresta, was not overworked. In a league where away points are worth so much, Parque Patricios left satisfied, although their midfield veterans such as Tomás Vidaurri and Samuel Tossi failed to impose the rhythm they were seeking. For Floresta, on the other hand, the draw leaves a bitter taste: playing at home and being unable to overcome an opponent who offered very little. Both sides continue to collect points one at a time, without glory, without sadness, simply following that grey routine of Primera I del GBA Oeste.
