Events

Match Events

5' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
10' What a strike from Roberto Joaquin Garcia! The score is 0-1.
15' Fernando Martinez is having his name booked by the referee on 15.
20' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 20 minutes.
25' 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.
28' Lisandro Magallan was booked on 28.
33' CA Vélez Sarsfield is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
38' It looks surprising CA Vélez Sarsfield does not make any changes. Matias Vera has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
43' 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.
46' It is a substitution in CA Central Cordoba team. Santiago Moyano is replaced by Alan Laprida on 46 minute.
51' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with CA Vélez Sarsfield winning 100% of all matches.
56' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
61' CA Vélez Sarsfield seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.

66' Joaquin Flores is replacing Ezequiel Naya for the CA Central Cordoba side.
71' The CA Central Cordoba manager makes a substitution. Diego Barrera departs to be replaced by Leonardo Marchi.
74' Braian Romero is replacing Florian Monzon for the CA Velez Sarsfield side.
77' That looks like a foul for a card for Leonardo Marchi.
82' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering CA Central Cordoba that had 135 games and scored 135 goals.
