El Vencedor de San Telmo and Juventud San Cristóbal shared the points on an afternoon of few thrills, where the 1-1 draw ended up being the fairest result for two sides who came into the fixture evenly matched and left in the same fashion. Both setups were symmetrical, with 4-4-2 formations and defensive mindsets, which produced a scrappy contest where chances were few and the play lacked fluency. The match was shaped by the goals of Edgardo Bauer, the Uruguayan left-back for El Vencedor who scored in a 7.2-rated display, and Ian Rotondo, the Mendoza-born striker of just 18 who scored again for the visitors and confirmed that the scout who brought him in from the outlying towns two years ago was spot on in his assessment.
The best of the home side came down the left through Kiki Levin, the Mendoza midfielder who at 28 remains a useful piece in the system, although the 7.2 rating reflects a decent display without any flashes of brilliance. For the visitors, Mauricio Castelli put in a solid shift as a holding midfielder, although he picked up a yellow card that will weigh on him on the next matchday. Cacho Ballarini, the 25-year-old striker who has lived at the club for three years, was precise with the assist that led to his teammate Rotondo's goal.
José Bonansea, the central defender from Comodoro for El Vencedor, did not have his best night defensively, but the 7 rating suggests that rather than specific mistakes it was a match where both defences were tested without being overwhelmed. Elián Valenzuela, Juventud San Cristóbal's veteran left-back at 34, showed that experience remains an asset in defence. The draw leaves both with mixed feelings: El Vencedor were denied all three points at home, while Juventud salvaged a point away from home that is never to be sniffed at in this division.
