Events

Match Events

  • 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — CA Rosario Central and CA Union get this one started.
  • 5' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 10' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Rodrigo Gomez suffering a number of foals already.
  • 12' Mauro Pitton adds to his 0 season tally! CA Union lead 0-1 — and this changes everything.
  • 17' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. CA Union needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 22' Damian Martinez has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 25 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
  • 24' The deadlock is broken! Damian Martinez gets on the scoresheet on 24 minutes.
  • 29' CA Union fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 34' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 35' Santiago Zurbriggen is having his name booked by the referee on 35.
  • 40' Both keepers have barely been tested. CA Rosario Central and CA Union are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 45' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 45 minutes.
  • 46' A tactical swap from CA Rosario Central — Maximiliano Lovera on, Jose Luis Fernandez off on 46 minutes.
  • 51' CA Union started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 51.
  • 56' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His CA Rosario Central side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 59' Assisted by Damian Martinez with the perfectly-timed delivery and Franco Fragapane makes no mistake. 0-3!
  • 64' CA Rosario Central manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Federico Carrizo is hanging Andres Lioi on the field on 64 minute.
  • 69' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 71' Joaquin Pereyra is ready to make an impact after coming on for Diego Arismendi at the 71 minute mark.
  • 73' Fresh legs for CA Union! Federico Andrada comes on to replace Franco Soldano.
  • 78' CA Union have won 171 goals from 169 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 82' Claudio Corvalan has so much to prove this time. He replaces Bruno Pitton on 82 minute.
  • 84' A stunning finish from Damian Martinez — that came from absolutely nowhere!
  • 85' CA Union ring the changes. Diego Zabala has done his job and it is now time for Rodrigo Gomez to step up.
  • 90' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • The final score is 0-4.
