It seemed like a quiet night for River Plate at the Monumental stadium once morest an Arsenal that seems to be playing its last games in the First Division. Martín Demichelis’ team won comfortably 2-0 with goals from Miguel Borja (3 minutes) and Nicolás De La Cruz (29). But Sarandí’s team, with their weapons, moved closer to the rival area and complicated a doubtful Franco Armani.

The goalkeeper of River and the Argentine team has not been transmitting the security (along with the defense) that he knew how to generate during his successful career for several dates and he had some serious failures that harmed the Millionaire. The first was at 33 minutes, when Adrián Sporle weakly finished from long distance. It seemed like an easy action for Armani, but the World Cup goalkeeper mightn’t contain the shot, the ball slipped through his hands and Lucas Brochero pushed for the goal. Fortunately for the local team, referee Fernando Espinoza annulled the action due to an advanced position.
The champion of the Professional League stayed on the playing field and gave ground to an Arsenal that, without pressure, continued looking for the added goal. That finally arrived 12 minutes into the second half with a cross from the left by Juan Bautista Cejas that unexpectedly went into Armani’s far post.

The ball, which came with spin and had previously touched Nacho Fernández’s head, hit the heart of the area and went into the goal, much to the dismay of the former Atlético Nacional de Medellín goalkeeper. The goalkeeper was left chewing on the ground because it was a play in which he might have prevented the goal. A miscalculation and a late reaction condemned Pulpo, who has been unable to keep an undefeated goal for 9 games in a row.
But just as Armani had gross failures, he also saved a new fall from his fence at the moment when River fans began to ask the team for more attitude. At 24, the goalkeeper rejected a Sporle cross at the near post and minutes later he blocked a one-on-one once morest Cejas.

River ended up winning the game 3 to 1 thanks to Borja’s second goal through a shot from the penalty spot. El Millonario might have scored the fourth goal, but Enzo Pérez burst the crossbar with a good shot inside the area and a counterattack that Matías Suárez might not take advantage of.
The team led by Demichelis added its second victory in the League Cup, both at home, and reached 6 points. On Thursday, September 21, River will host Atlético Tucumán on the fifth date.
