Jorge Newbery Eliminated: Boxing Wins Penalty Shootout

Jorge Newbery was eliminated on penalties against Boxing de Río Gallegos, after a first leg match in which they won 3-1 at home, and in a rematch – already in Río Gallegos – where the home team won 2-0.

The first goal of the match was scored 29 minutes into the first half, from a penalty, in which Marcelo Rodríguez would take it and effectively make it 1-0 and with the rain being the main protagonist in the Pichón Guatti.

However, with three minutes added in the first half, the “Albiverdes” equalized the series through a goal from Facundo Erramuspe.

Newbery is already in Río Gallegos and was fired by Aeronautas fans with a big flag

In the second half, Lobo was close to the goal that would put them in the Patagonian final, but they were not fine in the last few meters and The Río Gallegos team became strong defensively to hold on and take everything to penalties.

The Newbery goalkeeper saved the first penalty, exciting all the fans of the Comodoro team, but then those from Río Gallegos turned the series around after the missed penalties by Gabriel Toledo and finally by Gastón Barrientos to close the series 6 to 5.

End of the dream for Hugo Barrientos’ team who were seeking promotion to Federal A and the team from the capital of Santa Cruz took the dream away from him.
