Niupi3 - 2Los Que Llegan Tarde

Gol en Contra FC prevailed in a vibrant fixture against Los Que Llegan Tarde with a 3-2 scoreline that reflected the intensity of both squads. In Primera G of GBA Sur, the hosts showed defensive solidity in their balanced 4-4-2, although they had to suffer more than expected against visitors who never gave up at any point. Fede Basaldua was the undisputed star of the match: the 28-year-old central midfielder scored two goals with a rating of 8.1 that confirmed his status as the midfield standout, although he was booked, which affected his game in spells during the second half. Octavio Bocchini, the youthful centre-back of just 18 years old, had to deal with the pressure of experienced players and performed a notable job in containment, repelling Los Que Llegan Tarde's attacks.

For the visitors, Tato Garay was a constant problem for the home back line: the Bahía Blanca centre-back, 26, scored two goals of his own and showed why his rating of 8.4 places him among the most dangerous defenders in the division when he pushes forward into attack. Sandro Rosas' presence in the visitors' midfield, although with a more restrained performance (6.5), helped knit the play together and provided an assist that kept his team's hopes alive. Adriano Zerbi completed the list of home scorers with a goal and an assist, showing that the 28-year-old left winger remains an important attacking force in the tactical setup.

The match confirmed that in this part of GBA Sur there are teams that compete without complexes. Gol en Contra FC made the most of home advantage but did not dominate by any means; Los Que Llegan Tarde proved that they arrived late by name only, not to the match. Both squads produced a goal-filled spectacle well worth revisiting ahead of the upcoming matchdays.
