The Millionaire was ahead of the leaderboard twice and looked set to take the win, but de Fortin didn’t let his arms down and prevented him from celebrating.
José Amalfitani witnessed an excellent match in which, especially in the second half, it did not seem to be about the comfortable declarer with the third from last. Because apart from a negative streak that Vélez goes through and Tigre Gareca fails to reverse, the 2-2 draw was a reward for not giving up and a punishment for River’s inefficiency, except that he converted twice and in figure had changed to Chila Gómez.
Because before Robert Rojas’ goal, Fortin’s goalkeeper had already made several excellent saves, but they couldn’t when de Sicario picked up the rebound of the ball he had previously covered. And when the local fans complained about the lack of attitude, a game of pure precision and speed arrived, so that Lucas Pratto, simply the bear, sealed the 1-1.
With equality came stick for stick and it was the millionaire who struck with a deadly header from Beltrán but again he failed in defence, Ortega came in alone and unleashed a left foot shot that still left Armani 2-2 for the final that , Because of the manners it was celebrated in Liniers and lamented in Núñez.
