Belgrano Triumphs Over Sarmiento 4-1 in the Professional League Cup

Belgrano achieved the first victory of the season and in what way. They beat Sarmiento 4-1 for the sixth date of Zone B of the Professional League Cup. The match was played at the Gigante de Alberdi, with the refereeing of Jorge Baliño.

Sergio Quiroga, 24 minutes into the first half, gave Junín’s team the lead.

At 28, Santiago Longo stole a ball from Sarmiento and set up Ulises Sánchez, who scored the tie.

And Belgrano’s burst ended in the 31st minute, when a cross from Sánchez found Juan Barinaga at the far post.

Minutes later, at 39, and with all the momentum in the world, Bryan Reyna scored 3-1 for the light blues.

In the second half, with Belgrano in total control, Facundo Lencioni appeared to make it 4-1 with a header, at 26.

With this result, the Pirate reached five points, while those from Junín remained at two points. The leader of the area is Godoy Cruz, with 16.

On the next date, Belgrano will be the location of Talleres on Saturday, February 24 at 10:00 p.m. Sarmiento, for its part, will be the location of Barracas Central on the same day, but at 7:30 p.m.

Belgrano had a hesitant start, frequently losing the ball in the middle of the field and even conceding a goal with the same formula as the previous ones: cross from the wing, header return and Quiroga for the 1-0. El Pirata overcame and took full advantage of all the mistakes of a rival that gave so many advantages that allowed the local team to go into halftime winning 3 to 1.

That beginning in which the ball was the property of the Junín team, silenced the people, brought nerves to the surface. García was not the driver and Metilli (second striker) could not find the space for him.

Sarmiento justly got ahead on the scoreboard and the ghosts of previous nights in 2024.

But in a horrible attempt to get out from the back, Longo anticipated, played for Sánchez and made it 1-1 four minutes after the opening of the score. And in the next play a passed cross went to the head of Barinaga who appeared alone to make it 2 to 1.

Belgrano improved in the lead-up, put strength into each cross and took over the game. The visit continued in tune with the defensive error and Insaurralde wanted to clear a simple ball and gave it to García, the midfielder defined poorly, but the rebound was left to the Peruvian who made it 3 to 1.

The second part was to close with a smile, just before the classic with Talleres. It was 4 to 1 and it turned out to be a greater advantage. A rival full of advantages passed and the important thing is that the Pirate took advantage of them.

Winning by a landslide is a relief for the entire Pirate people, because it is the first victory of the year, they did it without shining, but with absolute justice. He won by a difference that may be somewhat exaggerated, but that does not withstand questioning.
