2 – 2
“Agustín Álvarez converts from the penalty spot to give Talleres the lead, capitalising on a foul after earlier pressure from Schott and Lima Morais had tested the Rosario defence.”
Pivotal“Valentín Depietri doubles Talleres' lead in the opening seconds of the second half, poking home after the goalkeeper saved Copetti's effort, with Timoteo Chamorro credited with the assist.”
Pivotal“VAR intervenes to award Rosario Central a penalty following a foul on Ignacio Ovando, and Di María steps up coolly to halve the deficit — sparking a minute of bedlam with yellow cards flashed at Copetti, Schott, and Ibarra.”
Pivotal“Di María completes the comeback, finishing from Franco Ibarra's assist after his own left-footed effort had been saved moments earlier — a moment of veteran composure that levelled the match at 2-2.”

Outstanding performance
Rosario Central•MidfielderTalleres Córdoba looked set for a comfortable victory after a disciplined first half and a clinical start to the second, but Rosario Central's veteran talisman Ángel Di María had other ideas. The home side were resolute and direct in the opening 47 minutes, converting a penalty through Agustín Álvarez and then doubling their advantage via Valentín Depietri — who pounced on a rebound after Enzo Copetti's effort was saved, assisted by Timoteo Chamorro. The statistics tell a stark story of Talleres' defensive resolve: just 35% possession but seven saves, with their goalkeeper repeatedly called into action against a Rosario side that created four big chances and registered 21 shots. The turning point arrived four minutes into the second half through a VAR-awarded penalty and the immediate chaos it unleashed — yellow cards for Copetti, Schott, and Ibarra in a single furious minute — before Di María stepped forward to convert and then complete the comeback with a fine left-footed finish from Franco Ibarra's assist. For Talleres, a two-goal lead that seemed secure has evaporated into a point, while Rosario Central will draw enormous confidence from their character, even if their dominance — 65% possession, 48 dangerous attacks — ultimately deserved a winning margin they could not quite find.
