The program of the Professional League Cup 2023: fixtures, dates, calendar and results
A high-flying game was expected in the Diego Armando Maradona and the predictions did not fail. There were dangerous actions in both areas, back and forth, dizziness and even some sparks. And the three points were mainly for El Bicho because he managed to take advantage of his rival’s mistakes: the locals opened the scoring with a set piece, made it 2-2 in the same way and finally won it after a mistake at the start of Rodrigo Aliendro.
On the other hand, River could not take advantage of the time of very good football it showed in the first half, as it went from 1-0 to 2-1 with a level similar to the one it had during the overwhelming run in the Tournament of the Professional League. However, this Demichelis team doesn’t know how to be reliable and the blow of Argentinos’ third goal was one they couldn’t get up from, apart from having a good chance to equalize at the feet of Facundo Colidio.
