Velez with 10 men from the 14th minute of the first half didn’t give up and withstood the attack throughout regulation. From eleven meters the two errors by Argentinos Jr and the goal by Lobato make the fans rejoice in the Clasico Moderno
After beating Godoy Cruz and Defencia y Justicia in the quarter-finals both 2-1, the Clasico Moderno between Argentinos Jr and Velez Sarsfield is worth the semi-final of the Copa de la Liga Profesional in Argentina. Whoever wins will face either Boca Juniors or Estudiantes who will face each other on May 1st.
In a heated environment, after Braian Romero’s expulsion after 14′ it could have been bad for Velez. Argentinos Jr, on the other hand, in addition to dominating ball possession, did not have the same number of chances or goals. It remains 0-0 in the 90′ of regulation. There is no extra time and we go straight to penalties.
Mendez makes the first mistake and risks ruining Velez’s plans who had suffered to get to the penalties. Heredia and Gondou, however, missed from eleven meters and led Lobato to score the decisive goal. Great celebration for Velez in the Clasico Moderno and now they expect to understand their opponent in the Cup final. Big regrets for Argentinos Jr not able to score for more than 75′ in numerical superiority. Whoever endures wins, even in Argentina.
