In the derby match of the 5th round of the Copa de la Liga Profesional, River celebrated after an extremely difficult visit to San Lorenzo – 1:0.
“The Millionaires” reached the third victory with a lot of trouble, but also the first position on the table, at least for 24 hours.
And everything could have been different for Gallardo’s team.
In the 33rd minute, San Lorenzo had a penalty for the lead, but it was not realized by Nicolas Fernandez.
Four minutes later, a harsh punishment arrived. Barco centered and Paulo Diaz scored – 0:1.
River continued to control the events on the field, and San Lorenzo threatened a few times.
However, the guests kept a safe game, and in the end, they kept the acquired advantage.
