Tandilocuentes Unidos0 - 0Juventud La Boca

Def. San Cristóbal Oeste and Juventud La Boca shared the points in a match that summed up the parity of the tournament well: two sides in their best moment, both with balanced mentalities and identical 4-4-2 formations, with neither willing to take too many risks. The result was a goalless 0-0, the sort of fixture that in Primera I of GBA Sur is repeated every matchday and that nobody forgets when it is over.

The home side had their chances without converting them. Benicio Schmitt, the 30-year-old central midfielder who came from Bahía Blanca where he learned discipline in the home of a mechanic, tried to create from midfield but found a tight marking job. Joel Ayub, the 29-year-old left winger with a rating of 7.1, could not play his usual game. Both picked up yellow cards during the match, which also limited their movement in the second half. For the visitors, Yamil Zegna —that 27-year-old Patagonian left winger who arrived without any big expectations— found space but did not make the most of it. Claudio Pomilio, the veteran 32-year-old right winger with plenty of miles in his legs, could not find any continuity in attack. Alexis Beizama, the young 22-year-old striker who not so long ago was watching from the stands, was erratic in front of goal.

The truth is that neither side wanted to lose. Def. San Cristóbal Oeste were satisfied with the point at home; Juventud La Boca, with the draw away from home. On matchday 10, when points are expensive and the hope of fighting at the top is alive, some say a 0-0 is almost a victory. Others will say it was a mediocre match between two teams with little to say. Both versions are probably true.

In the last meeting between Tandilocuentes Unidos and Juventud La Boca: 0 wins for Tandilocuentes Unidos, 0 draws and 1 for Juventud La Boca.
