Tigre (WLLDD)

At home, Banfield were beaten 0-1 by Tigre who held a better possession and a better tactical organisation. Both halves were quite even, Banfield created more goal attempts (6 vs. 3), but couldn't quite find the precision to convert. In the 40th minute, Domínguez was sent off the pitch after protesting on the bench, something which didn’t affect the number of players on the field. But if anything, Tigre started to better control the game, with 66 percent possession in the first half. In the second half, Tigre kept more possession (58%) and took the cue to increase their attacking actions. Banfield had a man down after Aranda received a second yellow card in the 81st minute, and that proved to be the difference in the game. Shortly afterwards, Contín scored the winning goal in the 88th minute, converting a penalty after a period of greater pressure from the visiting team. In general, Tigre were more effective, even if they made fewer goal attempts (7 vs 14). Key to the three points was their ability to capitalize at a crucial moment and their significant possession (62%). But they could not take that aggression into goals and a late red card for Banfield complicated matters. With this result, Tigre is in 16th place in the table with 29 points. In the last 5 league games, the team has recorded 1 win, 2 draws and 2 losses, with a record of 26 goals scored and 28 goals conceded.

A match characterized by the efficiency of the defensive of the home team instiuto beat Argentinos Juniors 1-0. In the first half, Instituto were solid defending against the Argentinos Juniors who controlled possession (58per cent in the first half). But despite this, Instituto made a dangerous opportunity for themselves, and failed to convert, while the visitors failed to turn their superiority into clear opportunities, with only one shot on target in four attempts. Both teams would remain with a score of half time, with both Institutos defensive solidity preventing quite a few attacks by Argentinos Juniors. In the second half though the panorama changed in the 60th minute when Lázaro scored a decisive goal after an assist from Rodríguez. Argentinos Juniors had 68 percent possession in the second half but were unable to create effectively and failed to find the target on five attempts.
