Events
Match Events

- 10' Estudiantes de La Plata currently sit 7 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 15' It looks surprising Estudiantes de La Plata does not make any changes. Mateo Pellegrino has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 16' The referee has no hesitation. Jose Florentin is booked for CA Velez Sarsfield — Yellow card on 16.
- 21' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.

- 51' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
