The result does not accurately reflect what happened between Newell’s and Platense in the Coloso Marcelo Bielsa, since the local team did not beat Calamar so clearly in the game. However, Garro’s voracity added to the passivity and innocence of the rival allowed Sanguinetti’s team to stay in the classification positions of Zone A of the League Cup after the incomparable momentum that caused the victory against Central in the Gigante de Arroyito.
Newell’s has the same number of points as River and is located in the third position by goal difference, although he needs to enhance the collective functioning to continue up there in the table because this Sunday it cost him a lot to violate an increasingly weakened Platense, who has not added for five dates.
The strength and persistence of Garro they reached Leprosy. because the mendocino he opened the scoring with a header and got a penalty to unlock the 1-1 that Platense had achieved before the break in a play that needed several minutes of review in the VAR offices due to Schor’s dubious position. In fact, that penalty from Infante to Newell’s 7 even required the referee’s check Pablo Dovalo on the monitor of the field of play, because the grab was mutual between both footballers although the defender of the Squid bothered the attacker’s header. It’s true, It was not a clear infraction, but it is not that the referee charged something that did not exist.
VAR gave Newell’s the penalty.
From 2-1, Spontón opted to go with everything in search of a tie and moved the bank. The team had some situations to get close to the goal, although both Bergessio and Tijanovich missed the goal by a lot. At once, the visitor left more and more spaces for Newell’s against and Sanguinetti’s changes provided the necessary freshness to settle the game in the final minutes, with a great definition by Reasco.
With more effort than play, and with more forcefulness than generation, Newell’s remains in the classification positions of Zone A and dreams of reaching the quarterfinals of the League Cup. He has nothing left over, it is true, but he is aware of his limitations. And he is golozo.
Reasco shouts the 3-1 of Newell’s (Télam).
