Events
Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Estudiantes de La Plata to score. At the same time, Racing Club does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 5' 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.
- 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 Gabriel Rojas suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' Racing Club started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 15.
- 20' Racing Club 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.
- 25' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Estudiantes de La Plata needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 28' Another substitution for Racing Club to replace Alan Forneris by Bruno Zuculini on 28 minute.
- 33' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Eros Mancuso made 175 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 38' It’s gonna be a card for Lucas Piovi.
- 40' It’s gonna be a card for Matias Zaracho.
- 45' It’s high time Alexander Medina made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 46' Racing Club receives a card for a hard tackle on 46.
- 51' The travelling Racing Club supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 56' The whistle greets Gabriel Neves as he departs to be replaced by Alexis Castro.
- 61' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 66' GOAL! Edwuin Cetre scores on 66.
- 71' Racing Club is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 72' It’s gonna be a card for Bruno Zuculini.
- 77' 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.
- 82' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 82 minutes.
- 84' It’s a booking for Racing Club player. Marco Di Cesare gets a card.
- 89' Goal! Santiago Sosa scores his 5 goal in 181 matches.
- 90' That looks like a foul for a card for Tiago Palacios.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Estudiantes de La Plata.
