Club Atlético San Silvines De Boedo1 - 0General Alvear de Once

Veterinarios Barracas came away with a tight victory against General Alvear de Once at the Estadio Municipal, in a match where the result was fair but could have gone either way. The home side broke the deadlock in the first half through Sebastián Piris, a thirty-year-old forward who knows exactly how to settle these evenly balanced situations. The goal came in a context where both teams set up in similar fashion, with no real intention of taking too many risks, which gave the fixture that tactical feel where the details end up being decisive.

General Alvear de Once never gave up despite falling behind. With Mauricio Rotondo up front and the experience of José Couto in attack, they looked to break down the visitors' resistance, though without much clarity. Coco Granado, the thirty-one-year-old holding midfielder, did his containment job, but the team lacked the attacking thrust needed to put Nico Viani under the posts in real trouble. At Barracas, Iván Huber, aged thirty-five, pulled the strings from midfield with the assurance that experience brings, while Leonardo Galli and full-back Kiki Milán kept a defence in line that was not seriously tested. Milán received a yellow card, but nothing that compromised his performance.

The match reflected what is happening in this Primera L in Buenos Aires: teams still under construction, where dropping points at home is a luxury no one can afford. For Veterinarios Barracas, the victory leaves them well placed after the third matchday. For the visitors, the defeat leaves the bitter taste of a match that in another context might have brought something more than empty hands.
