Match report

Aurora de Villa Devoto dominated from start to finish and dispatched Ferro Pompeya with a 2-0 scoreline that leaves no doubt about who was superior on the pitch. The home side controlled the tempo of the match with a balanced 4-4-2 formation that allowed them to manage both the defensive phase and transitions going forward. Ferro arrived with the same tactical approach but could never impose their conditions, and the visitors ultimately proved no more than a formality for the Villa Devoto side, who took their chances without expending unnecessary energy.

Milton Saliba, the 17-year-old striker, was decisive in the home attack and showed the hunger of someone who knows that every match is an opportunity. Santino Sotomayor added a goal from left-back, demonstrating that creativity at Aurora is not limited to midfield. In midfield, Liam Bilbao and Leonardo Mata (who was booked) dictated play without excessive fuss, while Negro Sacchi was a rock in defence: assured, without any showboating, exactly what was needed against an opponent who never found any continuity. Ferro tried to react in the second half, with Cris Viardot looking to create play in the box, but 38-year-old veteran Giuliano Montañez did not have enough energy to break through a defence that was perfectly organised.

The result reflects the difference in performance. While Aurora found an effective way to win through their composed style of play, Ferro Pompeya were short of ideas and precision. Wilfredo Vitale was booked in defence but could do little to contain the home side's momentum. For Ferro, this away defeat offers little consolation on a matchday when they needed to pick up points.
