Liga Núñez took all three points from Palermo Hollywood with a victory that reflected the tactical balance of the match, but also a certain degree of away-side efficiency when it mattered. The match passed without any major scares, with two teams opting for similar structures — both lining up in a 4-4-2 with a balanced mentality — and was ultimately decided by fine margins. The visitors' solitary goal came in a situation where Atlético Palermo Hollywood failed to break through the defensive screen that Liga Núñez intelligently put together. It was a deserved victory in the sense that the away side made the most of the spaces available and maintained their defensive concentration when required.
Vicente Rosas was the main architect of the visitors' victory. Liga Núñez's right winger, with a 7.6 rating, provided the spark the team needed at key moments, creating constant danger down his flank. In midfield, Rafael Bandiera and his 7.2 rating built play with composure, controlling the tempo without being spectacular. In defence, Joaco Vidaurri — converted to centre-back and earning just a 7.1 rating but doing a solid job — and Álvaro Gareca held together a difficult line to breach. For the home side, Claudio Navarro tried to organise play from the holding midfield position, although his 6.5 rating showed that it was not his best performance. Julián Vitale, the only 24-year-old centre-back, moved intelligently but lacked that extra touch that distinguishes winning performances. Víctor Pratto, aged 36 and carrying all his accumulated experience from Comodoro Rivadavia, was unable to provide the necessary spark to the home side's attacks from the right.
The result leaves Atlético Palermo Hollywood empty-handed on a matchday where they controlled space but failed to turn it into genuine danger. Liga Núñez, meanwhile, picked up three valuable away points in a difficult section of the table. For the home side, the feeling was that they lacked greater attacking clarity and perhaps a little more boldness in the final third.
