Vélez goes… With a double from Braian Romero, Fortín beat Banfield 2-1 and, in the midst of a complex situation due to a complaint of sexual abuse of four players on the team, he is the leader in Zone A of the League Cup along with River, Talleres, Argentinos and Independiente. Although due to goal difference, Fortín is out of the quarterfinals…
It was a turbulent week, with the focus on the complaint that targeted four players and with football very far from the foreground. However, beyond waiting for the progress of Justice, Vélez moved away from the controversy a little and spiced up the top of Zone A of the Professional League Cup a little more: he won 2-1 with a double of Braian Romero and reached the leaders but is still out of the qualification positions for the quarterfinals due to goal difference (he has 0 and Independiente, +4).
Each one showed their script, each one reflected their way of seeing the game. El Taladro sought to be direct and hit with the speed of their attacking men, while Fortín did so by trying to build with passes and creating plays.
The local team started better, although it was the visit that managed to open the scoring. In the best moment of Julio César Falcioni’s team, Gustavo Quinteros’ team scored a beautiful goal based on the football vision of Claudio Aquino, who enabled Francisco Pizzini behind Emanuel Insúa to assist Braian Romero, the author of the 1- 0.
Far from cowering, Banfield did not give up. Unlike the image that it reflected in the first dates of the tournament, the team evolved in the last days (it had three draws and two victories) and reacted in adversity: Bruno Sepúlveda put a cue in for the appearance of Braian Galván, who blocked, He kept the ball and put in a subtle touch with his left foot to hang it at the corner and leave Tomás Marchiori as a luxury spectator.
In the second half, El Taladro came out with determination, did well to find the goal (Marchiori took a great free kick from Ignacio Rodríguez) but Romero’s opportunism and scoring ability led Fortín to take the victory and three highlights in Florencio Sola to climb the table and spice up the definition of the group. Another seasoning.
