Outstanding performance
Platense•GoalkeeperEstudiantes controlled the game in the key metrics that matter, dominating possession at 57% and firing 16 shots to Platense's 12, with 10 of those on target compared to just 2 for the visitors. The hosts struck early through Gaich but were pegged back almost immediately when Guido Mainero equalized just five minutes later, setting up a tense, card-heavy affair that saw seven yellows shown across both sides. Platense's Eric Meza and Joaquin Tobio Burgos both threatened late attempts to turn the match again, but it was substitute Guido Carrillo who settled it in the 90th minute, pouncing to make it 2-1 after a flurry of late chances. The result keeps Estudiantes firmly in the title race while Platense, despite generating more dangerous attacks (40 to 32), will rue their wastefulness in front of goal with only 2 shots on target all match.
