Unión played poorly and ended up losing 1-0 against Central Córdoba. The game seemed like it would end tied, but Ferroviario found the advantage on a still ball.
Was What is evidenced by the red and white cast is very poor and the contrast is very great in comparison to what Unión had done against Gimnasia de Mendoza.
A defeat that should generate concern insidebecause it was a game to at least not lose, since the rival was not going through a good present.
An even first half and without dangerous actions
Within an even game development, The first approach was for Central Córdoba at 7′ when Horacio Tijanovich from the left sector put a cross to the far post that Michael Santos headed wide.
In that action, Unión was badly stopped in defense and also the ball was left over to Valentín Fascendini. This allowed the Uruguayan striker to head unopposed.
While at 13′ Santos controlled the ball well and gave it to Lucas Varaldo, who hurriedly finished off from mid-distance. and the ball went through the back of the court.
Era a little more the local team, who played on the red and white field trying to progress in attack, while that the Tate stopped to counterpunch.
A Unión found it difficult to find precision and in the final meters he repeatedly made mistakes. Therefore, after 20 minutes, Tate had not generated anything in attack, not even a shot at the rival goal.
In nothing resembled the team that four days ago had beaten Gimnasia de Mendoza. The team did not show the intensity that Leonardo Madelón intends and in the divisions Ferroviario had the advantage.
Just at the 23′ Unión accelerated in attack, when Marcelo Estigarribia came from the left and put in a low cross so that Tarragona, on the run, finished imperfectly and the ball was caught by Alan Aguerre.
However, The action was invalidated due to Tarragona’s advanced position, Although it is clear that if it had ended in a goal, it was an action to review, since the Tatengue striker seemed to be enabled.
Union had spaces to counterattack since the local cast gave some advantages, but Both the midfielders and the red-and-white forwards failed in the last pass.
On a couple of occasions, Unión won the rival area, but the headers from Estigarribia and Del Blanco went completely wide without generating a concrete chance to open the scoring.
And when little or nothing happened, At 41′, a mistake by Maizon Rodríguez inside the area almost made it possible for Central Córdoba to score the goal, but Tijanovich’s shot was blocked by Matías Mansilla.
In the final minutes of the first half, Central Córdoba was more ambitious by pushing Unión who could not find a foothold in the middle zone and showed imbalances in the defensive block.
Unión started better in the complement, but ended up losing
At the start of the second half, Tate came out determined to find the goal. And in just two minutes he prowled the rival area with danger, first with a good action by Lautaro Vargas that Julián Palacios failed to take advantage of.
And it is that he The midfielder’s shot hit a Central Córdoba player and then Estigarribia assisted Tarragona, but goalkeeper Alan Aguerre went to the ground and managed to clear the ball.
While at 5′ he reached Unión again after Palacios assisted Estigarribia, but the forward missed the goal and the shot went completely off target.
But that Union’s good start faded as the minutes passed. But only at 26′ Madelón moved the bench making three variations. Two of them tactical and one mandatory.
And it is that Fascendini asked for the change and his replacement was Juan Pablo Ludueña, while Misael Aguirre replaced Palacios and Santiago Grella replaced Del Blanco.
But at the 31′ and on a still ball, Central Córdoba took the lead with a center from Marco Iacobellis and Michael Santos’ precise header that beat Maizon Rodríguez to make it 1-0.
He goal ended up sentencing history, because Unión had no rest to go for the tiesince the Changes this time were not a solution, since Aguirre and Grella failed to unbalance on the wings.
Beyond that discount time, Estigarribia won with a header inside the area and Aguerre with effort ended up deflecting the ball to the corner kick.
Was Unión’s worst game in these four dates of the championship and ended up going back several places in a few days, adding his second fall in a row as a visitor and the most worrying thing is that it was against a rival that barely had a point.
He red and white team had no intensity nor freshness and once again demonstrated shortcomings both defensively and offensively. Perhaps it serves as a mitigating factor that came from playing on Monday, but it was still a disappointing performance.
