Events
Match Events
- 0' The wait is over. Racing Club get us underway at Estadio Presidente Juan Domingo Peron.
- 5' Leonel Miranda has been relatively quiet despite scoring 1 goals in his last 164 appearances.
- 10' Alexis Soto is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for CSyD Defensa y Justicia so far.
- 15' Leonardo Sigali needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 2 Red cards this season.
- 20' It looks like no one’s ball. Racing Club is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 25' CSyD Defensa y Justicia 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.
- 30' 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 Lisandro Martinez suffering a number of foals already.
- 35' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 40' CSyD Defensa y Justicia have won 208 goals from 164 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 45' Julio Gonzalez is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Racing Club tonight.
- 50' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 53' Magnificent from Jonathan Cristaldo! That is 13 goals in 171 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.

- 59' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 59 minutes.

- 70' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Matias Rojas makes it 1-1.
- 75' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Racing Club and CSyD Defensa y Justicia are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 80' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
