El Vencedor de Parque Chacabuco won a film of a match in matchday 2 of Primera I - GBA Sur, beating Club de Caballito Este 3-2 in a contest where both sides gave everything on the pitch but the home side had the clarity when it mattered most. It was a tight win that left a bitter taste for the visitors, who arrived with similar approaches in a 4-4-2 formation but came up against an opponent that managed the moments of the match better.
Faustino Zerbi, the 24-year-old striker with a rating of 7.6, was the attacking spearhead of the home side and showed why he is one of the main weapons in the project. His work allowed Mati Jiménez, the left winger who contributed a goal, to find space to do damage. Julián Aizpún, the 17-year-old youngster with a rating of 7.5, picked up a yellow card but was important in the build-up from midfield, while Adriano Landa on the right did his job by containing and creating. For Caballito Este, Pancho Vivenzio and Emanuel Caggiano managed to score for the visitors, but they lacked defensive consistency. Ivo Allende in midfield provided an assist, and Andrés Acosta tried to organise things from the back line, although he picked up a yellow card in the attempt.
The difference was in efficiency. El Vencedor took their chances with cold blood while Caballito Este suffered from inaccuracy at key moments. Marcos Baccaro in the home goal put in a solid performance with a rating of 7.4. For the Parque Chacabuco side it was an important win that keeps them in the fight; for Caballito Este, the defeat raises doubts about their defensive solidity, which they will have to sort out quickly.
