In another demonstration of effectiveness, Atlético beat Unión at the Monumental and continues as the leader, with an ideal score, in zone 1 of the Professional League Cup. Leonardo Heredia, Javier Toledo and Matías Alustiza they converted the goals for 3-1 in favor of the “Dean”. Gabriel Carabajal discounted, of penal, for the santafesinos.
The two times were totally opposite for the Tucuman team, who in the first 45 minutes lost to Ramiro Carreras already Luciano Monzón, both due to injury, while Sebastian Moyano Heredia held a penalty.
In addition, on the contrary, in 90 seconds the Tucuman scored two goals. The first came after a large center of Gabriel Risso Patron, which Heredia connected headfirst. Like the one he did to Independiente, for the South American, but in the arc of Chile.
That sensation of justice was going to enlarge just 60 seconds later, when Toledo saw Moyano ahead and, from more than 35 meters, hit the furthest pole. Great goal and a return to the festivities for the forward, who had scored for the last time on March 1, against River. Of course, only five games have passed since the restart of the competition, halted for seven months by the pandemic.
With the 0-2 down, “Tatengue” just reacted, returning to the game at 15 minutes, after the referee Nazareno Arasa charge a penalty against Cristian Lucchetti, which was also punished with the yellow card. In television reruns, the lack, if any, is almost imperceptible. But Carabajal cared little and discounted for the visit.
From there, also pushed by Union, the Tucuman team fell back on the field and tried to look for the faults of the rival, who dominated the game and was about to get a tie. Again, Lucchetti swelled in the “Dean” bow and put a padlock on it.
In discount time, the “Laucha” covered a hand in hand with Franco Troyansky, in a play that ended in a foul for the local. From his area, the captain threw a ball, which Toledo dropped, so that Alustiza put the final 3-1 and, like Melano in Sarandí, have his baptism of goal with the Atlético shirt.
This is the third consecutive victory of the team led by Ricardo Zielinski, which remains undefeated and pointer in Zone 1. This Thursday starts the second round, against Racing, again at home.
