Outstanding performance
Barracas Central•AttackerAtlético Tucumán looked firmly in control after Nicolás Laméndola's early strike and a response from Enzo Taborda seemed to be the extent of the drama, but Barracas Central's halftime triple substitution changed the complexion of the match entirely. Orsini, introduced at the break, proved the difference-maker, first nudging his side ahead in the 75th minute before snatching a stoppage-time winner moments after Maximiliano Villa had dramatically leveled for the hosts. Despite Tucumán's superior shooting accuracy (8 of 10 shots on target compared to Barracas' 5 of 9), the away side's control of possession (59%) and passing accuracy (79%) ultimately told, as they created more dangerous attacks and big chances across the 90 minutes. For Tucumán, sitting mid-table, this will sting as a missed opportunity to build momentum; for Barracas Central, the comeback win is a timely boost to their push up the standings.
