Godoy Cruz and Vélez tied in the first match of Date 11 of the Professional League

Date 11 of the Professional League opened in Mendoza, in a 1-1 draw between Godoy Cruz y Velez, that is with its head set on the quarterfinal series of the Copa Libertadores that will open next week against Talleres de Córdoba. In the stadium Argentine Falklandsthe commitment was arbitrated by Pablo Echavarría.

The scoreboard was broken after two minutes, after Pier Barrios took advantage of an unusual goalkeeper error Lucas Hoyos to give the local advantage. Shortly after, the visitor equalized thanks to a header from his star reinforcement, the Uruguayan Diego Godín.

Actually there were two matches that were going to raise the curtain on this day, but finally the authorities of the AFA and the Professional League suspended the one that was going to take place in Córdoba between Talleres and Unión de Santa Fe, product of the crash of the Tatengue bus that caused head trauma to three of its soccer players and a total of 7 seriously injured (all out of danger), in addition to fright. It was considered postponing it for tomorrow, but as the Cordobans will face the Fort in Liniers the following Wednesday, it was postponed without a date.

With little material, the duo consisting of Fabio Orsi and Sergio Gomez is plotting a brilliant campaign that keeps the Grocer in an expectant position in the table (fourth place and four points behind the leader) and waiting to play the Round of 16 of the Argentine Cup against Belgrano of Cordoba. Although, his focus is on the permanence and that classification indicates that they are in 24th place, with four rivals below, when two will descend.

For its part, Velez he garnered a point that is of no use to him, since he remains among the worst in the tournament, but at least he gave filming to several players who are not usually starters and those who will be starters against Talleres for the Copa Libertaodres were able to rest. From the hand of Cacique Alexander Medinathose of Liniers struck by eliminating Marcelo Gallardo’s River, but in the domestic sphere there is concern: He has 7 matches without wins.

On the next day, Godoy Cruz will visit the difficult Gimnasia on Friday, while Vélez will travel to Santa Fe to face Unión on Saturday.
