General Güemes de Balvanera and La Gloria de Boedo shared the points in a tight contest that reflected the tactical balance of both squads. The final 1-1 in Balvanera was the outcome of a match where neither side managed to impose itself, despite moments of clarity at both ends. The 4-4-2 formation was the common denominator, and the balanced mentality each side brought determined that the result was fair, even if it did not provide too much entertainment along the way.
Gabriel Berman opened the scoring for the home side with a goal that allowed General Güemes to breathe in the match. The Patagonian striker did his job as centre-forward, although he picked up a yellow card that left him under a cloud for the second half. For the visitors, Chino Negrete, the veteran 37-year-old full-back who still retains his ability to make an impact going forward, managed to level the score with a goal that came at just the right moment to keep La Gloria from leaving the stadium beaten. Lucho Pereyra orchestrated the play from midfield with a balanced performance, while Xavier Aronica, who provided an assist at right-back, was a constant threat in the visitors' attack. At the back, Leandro Vidale maintained the solidity with a rating of 7.1 for the home side, and Omar Zorzi did likewise for La Gloria with the same mark. Ramón Tévez was booked in the visitors' central midfield, underlining the intensity that characterised the battle for midfield.
The draw leaves General Güemes feeling they dropped points, having had the lead on the scoreboard. La Gloria, meanwhile, rescued a result that keeps their hopes alive in the zone. For the next matchday, both teams will have the chance to respond: the hosts looking to recover the protagonism they showed in stretches, and the visitors proving they can compete on equal terms away from home.
