Vélez Sarsfield (DDWLW)
Velez Sarsfield and Belgrano played to a 1-1 draw. It was an intense start as Belgrano scored the first goal only 6 minutes in to the match, with Fernández N. scoring with a pass from Compagnucci. But Velez, despite their attacking attempts, including 27 shots in total, could only trouble the other goalkeeper with more incisive shots in the 13th minute, without success. In the second half, Velez upped the pressure before Fernández T. equalized in the 53rd minute with a pass from Braian Romero. Velez dominated possession with 60 percent of the ball and created several looks, but could not change the outcome, being blocked on 8 shots. With a more defensive posture and only 3 attempts on goal, Belgrano was able to stop the opponent's attacks. Overall stats show Velez Sarsfield in control, who managed 60 percent possession and shot more than double their opponents (27 against 3).
