The ‘Fortín’ was on the brink of elimination in the Copa Libertadores, but the squad came back to life with the impressive 3-2 win over Nacional, in Uruguay. Those led by Julio Vaccari sealed the victory in the last minute, after starting losing and receiving a partial draw shortly before the end.
The architects of Vélez Sarsfield’s first victory in the international competition were Lucas Janson, Matías de los Santos and Máximo Perrone. In this way, the team was left with options to advance to the round of 16, although it will not depend on itself: they must win and hope that Bragantino draws or loses on their visit to Nacional.
The objective is clear and the club will seek to maintain the good streak that it recently linked: it has gone four games without losing (three wins and one draw). However, the technical command must also correct some details, especially in defense, since that area has always been violated in the last seven presentations.
For its part, Estudiantes La Plata showed great power in the regular phase of the Professional League Cup, but said goodbye in the quarterfinals, after penalties against Argentinos Juniors. Despite the bad outcome in the local competition, the board trusts the project of coach Ricardo Zielinski.
So far, “Pincha” has not lost in the Copa Libertadores and is assured of first place in his group. At this time, the institution’s top scorers in this South American contest are forward Gustavo Del Prete and defender Agustín Rogel, each with two goals.
