The 0-0 draw between Platense and Deportivo Riestra was a boring game of few clear cut chances, although both sides defended well. Platense had 69% of the possession in the first half while Deportivo Riestra had 31%. But while superior in possession it did not produce too many chances with Platense only managing 2 shots on target, and Riestra none. Deportivo Riestra held on to the result against Platense’s attempts to dictate the tempo, blocking all the attacking attempts. Platense also enjoyed 17 shots to Riestra's 16, after fouls and throw ins were also common, both in the competitive and physical nature of the match. Defensively balanced trend continued in the second half. Both teams were compact defensively, and Platense continued to have the better possession (63%), though Riestra was able to cause problems in attacks. In that period Platense could increase the number of shots on goal to 10, but only three were on target, while Riestra, having fewer attempts, had one good shot. In a match where more was made of the fight in the pitch rather than the clear chances created, both goalkeepers had to intervene, making 3 saves each. In the end, Platense had 66 percent possession and 12 shots on goal to Deportivo Riestra's 4. Platense were the more proactive of the two but weren't clinical enough to take their chances. Riestra, Deportivo, was able to take advantage of its defensive stance and a slow pace to keep the result in hand, to contain the opposition's attacks. The teams lack of efficiency in finishing is reflected in the goalless draw with Platense trying to take the lead in the match. With this result, Deportivo Riestra is in 9th place in the table with 30 points. In the last 5 league games, the team has recorded 1 win, 3 draws, and 1 loss, with a record of 22 goals scored and 22 goals conceded.
