La Glorieta de Munro left Munro with their pockets full. A 2-0 that sounds comfortable and was, although Belgrano Munro put up a fight with their balanced 4-4-2 from the first minute. The visitors handled the tempo better, distributed with judgement and punished where they had to. Tiago Bermúdez, the eighteen-year-old Brazilian left winger, was the bully of the match: two goals that settled the result without too much fuss. The youngster has a rating of 8.4 and showed it in every action. It was not a burst of pure talent but something more dangerous: the tactical maturity of someone who knows where to tread. Matías Levin in the visitors’ goal had a quiet afternoon, which also tells you how the match unfolded. Belgrano Munro never managed to trouble him in any serious way.
For the home side, Joel Plaza on the right was booked in a match where the midfield created little or nothing. Lorenzo Triboldi, central midfielder with a rating of 6.2, had to battle constantly without being able to impose any rhythm. Ulises Aguilar, left-back aged thirty-three and with experience to spare, tried to hold firm but it was not enough. The Munro defence was porous, especially down the flank where La Glorieta attacked. Ramon Pawlak in the visitors’ midfield moved the ball well and was booked in a typical action for someone who plays with intent. Fede Mira, the 24-year-old left-back, contributed an assist and was one of the standout names for the visitors.
Belgrano Munro went looking for it from the outset but found no connections. La Glorieta knew how to wait, win the ball back and move it quickly. Santi Rincón, the twenty-four-year-old striker from La Rioja, did not need to have much of a starring role because his team-mates were making the path for him. It was a win without boasting, the kind of victory that gives you momentum on matchday 1. For Belgrano, there is the task of picking themselves up again in the next fixture of Primera F GBA Norte.
