The Cordovan cast has seven undefeated games, with six wins and a draw, and is excited to fight hand in hand for the title with the ‘Millionaire’.

In the cool Córdoba night, and in front of more than 40,000 people at the Kempes, Talleres tried to impose their game from the beginning, with the characteristic vertigo that they show from midfield forward, while Sarandí’s team showed their cards, with the driving Santiago Toloza, and was encouraged to raise a duel, equal to equal.

Without doing too much, the ‘T’ found themselves in the lead, when Rodrigo Garro combined with Paraguayan Ramón Sosa in a corner from the left, who threw a cross that Alejandro Medina seemed to control without problems. But the goalkeeper, the ball slipped out of his hands and fell at the feet of Santos, who was well placed and pushed the goal to make it 1-0.

With the result in their favour, the locals lowered the intensity of the game, and although knowing that any rival distraction in the background could leave them facing the goal, they did not accelerate enough to generate more dangerous actions in those initial 45 minutes.

While those from Viaducto proposed and matched in terms of handling the ball, but their game was inconsequential when they approached Guido Herrera’s goal, who did not have any surprises.

This trend continued in the second half, although Arsenal -forcedly- took the lead on the field and more spaces appeared for the local attack, while their coach Javier Gandolfi began to move the substitute bench to rest those players who played last Tuesday. in the 2-0 victory in the Argentine Cup against Chacarita, in La Rioja.

Those oriented by DT Federico Vilar had no football arguments to reach the tie and they always ran into the strong ‘albiazul’ defense, which did not allow Herrera’s goal to suffer further anxieties.

The minutes passed, Talleres showed a slight dominance, and although without showing the brilliance of past games, they clung to the three points that allow them to remain expectant while waiting for Martín Demichellis’s team to leave points along the way.

Talleres will play again for the LPF in two weeks, when they visit Lanús on Saturday the 24th, while Arsenal will be home to Sarandí one day later, receiving Platense.
