At the Gigante de Arroyito, on date 1 of group G, they won 1-0 with a goal from Quintana al Manya, who looked for it in the second half but ran into a tough Canalla.
Rosario Central began its participation in Group G of the Copa Libertadores with a valuable victory. Against a team from the Cup lineage like Peñarol, they won a 1-0 victory with gritted teeth at the Gigante de Arroyito to start positioning themselves in the table.
In the first half, Miguel Russo’s men tried to take center stage but they also fell prey to some visiting attacks. Likewise, the process intensified closer to half-time, when Ignacio Malcorra raised the shot in the first local clear, and Manya responded with a header from Gastón Ramírez that went close.
Finally, in a key moment of the match, Canalla managed to move the scoreboard, when Facundo Mallo connected a corner from the left at the far post and burst the crossbar, and after the rebound Carlos Quintana converted in the 46th minute.
The complement was fertile ground for Diego Aguirre’s men to go forward and try to go for the tie, although the host gave them a fight in the middle, preventing the siege from getting into the area. Maximiliano Silvera missed it in the heart of the area and then Quintana was the hero again by clearing a definition off the line.
The image at the end, with Aguirre claiming a penalty in a mutual fight between the admitted Martín Gianoli and -again- Quintana, was the demonstration of Uruguayan impotence on a night that eluded them thanks to the merits of Central. The party stayed in Arroyito, along with the hope of a good drink.
