Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: CA Lanús gets underway.
- 5' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 10' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 15' 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 Alex Rodriguez suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His CA Unión side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 25' A quiet spell here at Estadio 15 de Abril. CA Unión seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 28' The CA Lanus bench stirs into life. Ramiro Carrera is withdrawn and Eduardo Salvio gets his opportunity.
- 33' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 38' CA Lanús looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Felipe Pena Biafore scoring 1 goals.
- 40' Felipe Pena Biafore is ready to make an impact after coming on for Agustin Medina at the 40 minute mark.
- 41' Carlos Izquierdoz picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 46' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 51' CA Unión are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against CA Lanús's shape.
- 53' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Lucas Menossi makes no mistake. 0-1!
- 58' The home supporters are growing impatient. CA Unión must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 59' A change in the CA Union ranks — Misael Aguirre exits the field as Marcelo Estigarribia enters on 59.
- 60' The referee has no hesitation. Sasha Marcich is booked for CA Lanus — card on 60.
- 65' Ramiro Carrera is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for CA Lanús tonight.

- 73' GOAL! Felipe Pena Biafore scores on 73. Assisted by Gonzalo Perez
- 76' Joaquin Mosqueira has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 76 minutes.
- 81' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 82' CA Union ring the changes. Lucas Menossi has done his job and it is now time for Emilio Giaccone to step up.
- 83' CA Union manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Juan Pintado is hanging Julian Palacios on the field on 83 minute.
- 88' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. CA Unión needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 90' That is a card for CA Lanus. Walter Bou will be fuming at that decision.
