(ESPN.com) – River Plate won this Saturday morning 2-1 against Boston River at Artigas Park for the ninth date of the Clausura Tournament. The Darren began losing with both Facundo Rodríguez, but was able to turn the score with goals from Thiago Galletto and Matías Arezo, despite playing with ten players in the last half hour of the game against Facundo Bonifazi’s direct red.
The first half did not have many dangerous actions, and it was Boston River, still with many difficulties, who was able to progress more in attack.
In addition, the Tailor corrected in the end zone and began to be dangerous in the face of Salvador Ichazo’s goal.
At 59 ‘, the most controversial play of the match occurred when Bonifazi was very strong in search of the ball against Leandro Lozano. The referee Diego Riveiro understood that the action merited the direct expulsion of the visiting left-back, which generated the protest of River, whose coach also received the direct red.
To make matters worse, four minutes later Boston opened the scoring with a goal from Facundo Rodríguez. Then, the goalkeeper Salvador Ichazo was essential on several occasions to avoid a second fall of his goal.
The local could not sentence the match, an aspect that River capitalized on, managing to reach the equalizer at minute 78 with a shot from Galletto after a corner kick.
Chavo Díaz’s team took advantage of the clean and jerk and took the lead in the 83rd minute with Arezo’s penalty goal, and then focused on successfully defending that 2-1 lead on the scoreboard.
Thus, with ten players, the Dancer was able to return to victory after two 0-0 draws and now add eleven points in the Clausura, while Boston River, which is still in the fight for permanence, regretted too much the missed opportunities.
On the next date, River will play on Wednesday, November 3 in the morning (10:15 time) against Wanderers in Saroldi Park, while Boston will play on Thursday 4 against Cerro Largo at Raúl Goyenola Stadium. In the eleventh stage, the Dancer will visit Rentistas on Saturday 6 at four in the afternoon, and Boston will be local in Artigas Park before Progreso also at 4:00 p.m.
