In Rosario, on matchday 2 of the League Cup, the last champion debuted at home with another draw, but this time without goals.
Rosario Central tied 0-0 with Banfield, for the second day of zone A of the 2024 Professional League Cup. At the Gigante de Arroyito Stadium, the last champion debuted at home again with a tie against Taladro. Below, the summary, the controversies and the best plays of the game.
In a discreet first half and on a playing field that is not in conditions for the ball to run as it should, at minute 12 of the start of the match a play between Ignacio Malcorra and Tomás O’Connor generated a shot by Lautaro Giaccone from outside the area in which Marcelo Barovero had to intervene. Central did not have another dangerous situation throughout the initial part and Banfield was a little better. Near the end, a partnership between Gerónimo Rivera and Emanuel Insúa allowed a shot from the left side, where Jorge Broun had no problems catching.
In the complement, those led by Miguel Ángel Russo improved their game but could not put it into the result. However, the chances of danger continued to be with Drill and Broun became a figure. First in an attack by Falcioni’s team where Maricio Martínez wanted to reject the ball and Broun prevented the goal from being scored. Then, a violent shot from outside the area by Lautaro Ríos that the rogue goalkeeper was able to contain. Finally, again a shot from Ríos demanded Broun, who sent it to the corner. Rosario Central and Banfield did not take advantage of each other in the Gigante de Arroyito.
