Boca Unidos achieved a key victory yesterday afternoon against a direct rival. In his stadium he beat Juventud Unida de Gualeguaychú 3-0 in one of the matches that closed the curtain on the twenty-third date of the Federal A tournament this Sunday.
The resounding victory allowed Aurirrojo to match the line of the Entrepreneur Dean, with a less played game and better goal difference, to settle in fifth place in the table of positions of zone B of the contest.
The performance of the Corrientes team went from lowest to highest. Despite having a favorable wind for the locals, it was difficult for them to settle in the field of play, being the Entrepreneur team the one that had the predominance of the game in the first minutes, although without depth.
Gradually the Aurirrojo was matching the tenure, and although Gabriel Morales came into play little, each time the ball reached Arriola’s feet, the alarms were lit in the background of Juventud, because the saladeño would often beat his arm wrestling. marker.
Boca Unidos’ first deep finish was after an Arriola cross into the heart of the area that passed Salom and could not be deflected by “Gabi” Morales, who entered from the far post.
On the second attempt, Arriola delivered a very strong left-footed shot that burned Horst’s hands, sending the ball to the corner kick. The execution fell to Peralta, with Ataliva Schweizer jumping higher than anyone to hit a header against the left post that the goalkeeper again deflected with great effort.
In another offensive action by the premises, Sánchez Paredes found “Gabi” Morales very well, who took a half-turn shot that Horst controlled by throwing himself against the right vertical.
It was Boca Unidos’ moment, which immediately reached the opening of the scoreboard. Godoy came out playing from the bottom for Peralta, who enabled a pass to the clearing for Salom, who faced a Horst who stayed under the arc and shot him with a shot at the near post.
Before the end of the first half, Juventud was close to equality, when Schell Grané put a filtered pass to Parada, and the forward’s left-footed shot crashed into the right pipe of the Corrientes goal.
Shortly after returning from the changing rooms, Boca Unidos practically defined the lawsuit. In a play where Trejo and Saliadarre were wrong, but in which the wind also played in favor of the local, “Gabi” Morales fought and stayed with a ball on the edge of the large area and his shot against the right parade overcame the resistance of Horst to make it 2-0.
Touched, Juventud Unida went for the discount, but the figure of the goalkeeper of Boca Unidos Martínez appeared to close his bow. “Fideo” first covered a heads up with Schell Grané, and then he did the same with a tackle from Trejo, reading the plays very well in both cases.
In the local Fernández and Ataliva were injured, joining in their replacements Silva and Ramiro Schweizer. In a counterattack, Aurirrojo was close to the third, when Morales, Salom and Peralta got together, but the left-footed shot of the Tucuman was taken to a corner by Horst.
Players on both teams kept coming from the benches. At the local Lazzaroni came through Leani – he was the only one who was reprimanded by Boca Unidos – and Peralta left his place to “Panchito” Esteche, who immediately made people talk again. The youth received a ball in three quarters of the court, took advantage of the fact that Salom took the marks, to step on the area and take a left-footed shot that rose after deflecting in Saliadarre and beat Horst to celebrate his third goal with the aurirroja shirt.
With Boca Unidos regulating the rhythm and Youth looking to discount, the last minutes passed, standing out a new cover by Martínez against the first post before a shot from Corbalán, who, dazed by the goal, did not observe that Vargas asked him to pass back and Juan Luis Alfaro arrived also from the bottom to push the ball.
With the result 3-0, the referee took pity on the protagonists of a suffocating afternoon, and decided to end the match practically without adding anything.
It was a resounding and key victory for Boca Unidos, who endorsed the carnival classic against Juventud Unida to maintain the streak and continue to climb positions in the championship.
