Bayern Murciélago took the three points from the pitch of Los Que Nunca Ganan with a deserved win in a tight match, where both sides went out with the same intentions but only one had the efficiency needed to break the deadlock. Primera G de CABA saw two sides in a 4-4-2 shape that looked for balance without giving up the desire to win, though the visitors knew how to find the gaps when needed. Pichi Kaminski, Bayern’s holding midfielder at just 24 but with a maturity that is striking, was the man who opened the scoring and settled a contest where chances were few but valuable.
Los Que Nunca Ganan tried to set themselves up in an organised way with Ivo Ortelli controlling the tempo in midfield, though the 29-year-old midfielder was booked in a match where plenty was asked of him. Cayetano Aramendia, the Brazilian attacking midfielder, could not produce the attacking damage his side needed, while León Silverman, the 20-year-old right-back, had to stay alert at the back against the visiting right winger’s runs. For the visitors, Ronaldo Cáceres in goal was decisive with his reflexes, the 34-year-old goalkeeper who knows the feel of a tight pitch well. Negro Palomeque, a winger who also carries the scars of his time in tough competitions, was a constant headache for the home defence with his surges down the right.
Edgardo Cruz, Bayern Murciélago’s young attacking midfielder at just 18 but with the composure of someone brought through the academy, appeared at key moments to find through balls. Bayern Murciélago were not the better side on the pitch but made the most of their efficiency. A match that Los Que Nunca Ganan could have salvaged, but which ended up being another lesson on their path, at the hands of a Bayern side that are starting out as favourites in the group.
