Villa Soldati could not find a way to stop a Parque Avellaneda side that arrived in San Justo with a clear plan and the tactical intelligence to carry it out. The visitors left with a 1-0 victory, a fair result in a match where both teams opted for similar shapes but where the difference lay in attacking precision. Edgardo Bonaccorsi, a centre-back with a hunger to get forward, was the one who decided the match with the goal that condemned a home side that had their moments but not the clarity needed to turn them into real danger.
The match unfolded under a fragile balance, the kind of fixture where possession was shared out without either side imposing overwhelming dominance. Valentín Bianco and Bonaccorsi in Parque Avellaneda's back line were a solid wall, with the Bahía Blanca man's 7.7 rating backing up every intervention. Jonathan Sequeira, at 37 still dealing with the demands in Villa Soldati's midfield, was booked yellow for trying to reorganise a team that was outdone in creativity. Yoel Vannini, with his two-footed gift that makes him unpredictable on the right, found no space to do damage. Juan Schwarz in the home goal made valuable interventions but it was not enough against a rival that knew how to manage its pressure.
Lito Wisniewski, that 28-year-old midfielder who performs the role of a quiet organiser, was decisive in shutting down play from the middle. Adriano Navarro, a youngster of just 22, showed tactical maturity in distribution. With this victory, Parque Avellaneda move into contention in Primera L of GBA Sur, while Villa Soldati will have to look again at their automatisms because the numbers do not lie: a balanced setup needs more than balance to win in this division.
