Outstanding performance
San Lorenzo•AttackerDefensa y Justicia delivered a commanding 5-2 victory over San Lorenzo in a match that was effectively decided within the opening 45 minutes. The visitors established early control through Elías Pereyra's second-minute opener and Juan Gutiérrez's first-half strike, before Aarón Molinas' penalty made it 3-0 just after the break. Despite Rodrigo Auzmendi's spirited double for San Lorenzo, Agustín Hausch and David Barbona ensured a comprehensive away win. The result leaves San Lorenzo in a precarious league position, while Defensa y Justicia's clinical finishing and ability to capitalize on their opponent's defensive frailties suggests they're finding crucial form at the right time.
