Events
Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for CS Independiente Rivadavia to score. At the same time, CA Union does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 5' It looks surprising CA Union does not make any changes. Cristian Tarragona has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 8' CA Union receives a card for a hard tackle on 8.
- 13' Jose Florentin has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 17 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
- 18' CA Union looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Cristian Tarragona scoring 1 goals.
- 23' CS Independiente Rivadavia 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.
- 28' The travelling CA Union supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 33' CS Independiente Rivadavia started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 33.
- 34' CA Union is taking the lead after the goal scored by Brahian Cuello on 34.
- 39' 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.
- 44' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 49' Goal! Cristian Tarragona scores his 19 goal in 93 matches.
- 54' CA Union is showing some good football. However, CA Union are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 56' That looks like a foul for a card for Tomas Bottari.
- 61' It looks like no one’s ball. CS Independiente Rivadavia is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 63' A meaty challenge results in booking for Marcelo Estigarribia on 63.

- 70' What a strike from Fabrizio Sartori! The score is 1-2.
- 75' Mateo Del Blanco needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 80' 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.
- 85' 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 Juan Pablo Luduena suffering a number of foals already.
- 90' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with CA Union winning 100% of all matches.
- The final score is 1-2.
