“Junior Marabel opens the scoring for Sarmiento, finishing off a move assisted by Jhon Renteria after Aldosivi had already threatened through Martinez and Garcia.”
“Aldosivi respond almost immediately as Lucas Castro levels the score, assisted by Manuel Garcia, restoring parity within two minutes of falling behind.”
“With the game seemingly heading for a draw, substitute Julián Mavilla breaks the deadlock, finishing off a chance created by fellow substitute Jonathan Herrera after both had missed earlier efforts.”
Pivotal“Sarmiento put the game to bed in stoppage time as Jonathan Herrera converts after Aldosivi fail to clear two headed chances in their own box.”

Outstanding performance
Sarmiento•AttackerAldosivi and Sarmiento traded blows early, with Junior Marabel's cool finish cancelled out two minutes later by Lucas Castro, and the game then settled into a bruising, foul-strewn stalemate that produced seven yellow cards before halftime whistle work even began in earnest. Both sides created chances throughout - Sarmiento edged the big chances created column 3-1 and out-passed their hosts with 71% accuracy to Aldosivi's 65% - but it was game management in the closing stages that proved decisive. Aldosivi's heavy rotation, with five substitutions made between the 58th and 79th minute, never settled the game down, and Sarmiento punished that instability late through substitutes Julián Mavilla and Jonathan Herrera, who combined for both decisive goals inside three minutes. For Sarmiento this is a huge result in the context of the title race, while Aldosivi will rue a match where 6 corners and 4 shots on target yielded only a single goal.

Struggling Aldosivi welcome a Sarmiento side missing on form but tucked safely into mid-table for a Friday night clash at the Minella. With Aldosivi mired near the relegation zone and Sarmiento stumbling after a heavy defeat to Racing, both sides badly need a response.
