Match Events

- 22' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 27' CA Independiente is showing some good football. However, CA Independiente are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 32' Juan Manuel Insaurralde has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 37' Lucas Gonzalez has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 19 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 40' The referee shows CA Independiente player a Yellow card on 40.

- 82' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Domingo Blanco on 82 minutes.
- 87' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering CA Independiente that had 163 games and scored 170 goals.
