This Wednesday in Victoria, for the Professional League Cup, Matador fell narrowly against Halcón and did not achieve its first victory in the competition.
Defensa y Justicia defeated Tigre 1-0 on matchday 5 of the Professional League Cup. The only goal of the match that was played at the Monumental de Victoria was scored by Nicolás Uvita Fernández in the second half. With this result, Halcón approached the top positions in the area and sank Matador in the table.
The team led by Julio Vaccari took a well-deserved victory in Victoria. During the first half they had dangerous chances to take the lead and, although in the second half Tigre raised the level and the match was tied, Halcón remained persevering and reached the goal thanks to their figure: Uvita Fernández.
At 31′ of the complement, the play started with the former Boca, Aaron Molinas, and a pass for the opening of Luciano Herrera. The 27-year-old footballer combined with Julián López, who with an attack managed to deliver the ball to Uvita inside the area. The former San Lorenzo took a man off and hit a left-footed shot to stab the ball into Matías Tagliamonte’s corner.
Defensa achieved its third victory in five games, managed to finish in fifth position behind Racing and for now would qualify for the Copa Sudamericana. On the other hand, Tigre has a bleak outlook: it lost four games and is last in the annual table, so it would be losing the category.
