Núñez’s team broke the zero at 31 minutes of the initial stage by the hand of midfielder Agustín Palavecino, who with a subtle definition overcame the resistance of goalkeeper Gabriel Arias in an intense first half that had clear situations for both teams but that leaned to the side of the cast of Marcelo Gallardo after the opening of the scoreboard.

Already in the complement, it was a monologue of the champion: just at the beginning, the outstanding figure of the team in the tournament, Julián Álvarez, stretched the difference and Braian Romero, at 22 and 32 minutes, sealed the win over a bewildered Racing that was a luxury spectator of the “Monumental” festival.
With this result, Núñez’s team won the championship three dates after the end of the competition, because their pursuers Talleres de Córdoba and Defensa y Justicia no longer have a mathematical chance of snatching the top from them.
