Defining day in the last round of the Apertura

In another advance of the 21st round of the Apertura Marcos Méndez, in Recreo Sur, Cosmos FC closed with a victory over La Salle Jobson by 2 to 0 under the arbitration of Iván Chazarreta. The goals for the host team came through Matías Rotania, who reached eleven conquests, and the substitute Lautaro Pereyra. In the team led by Pablo Molina, Patricio Ojeda and Joaquín Schaller were expelled.

There were two advances on Thursday, one in Cayastá and the other in the south of the provincial capital. With goals from Juan Vázquez for the locals, and Máximo Bejarano, Ciclón Norte de Cayastá and La Salle Jobson drew 1-1 at the Ricardo Yossen stadium. On the other hand, Nacional managed to defeat Colón de Santa Fe by 1 to 0 with a goal from Facundo Chacón.

The positions were left as follows: Colón de San Justo and Sanjustino 45; Sportivo Guadalupe 44, Unión de Santa Fe 40, El Quillá 36, Ateneo Inmaculada 32, Nacional and Universidad 30, Colón de Santa Fe 28, Independiente and Cosmos 27, Ciclón Racing 25, Gimnasia y Esgrima 24; Ciclón Norte de Cayastá, Academia Cabrera, La Salle Jobson, and Nobleza 23; Juventud Unida 19, La Perla del Oeste 18, Vecinal Gálvez 15, Newell´s Old Boys 14, Pucará 8.

There will be three matches that focus attention. One of the leaders, Colón de San Justo, will visit Vecinal Gálvez, with the arbitration of Emiliano Maldonado, and Sanjustino, the other leader, will host Pucará with the refereeing of Nicolás Mottier. At the Tatenguita venue, Sportivo Guadalupe will visit Unión, with Joaquín Urbani in control. The team led by Flaco Tobaldo will not only depend on itself but also on what happens in Sauce Viejo and San Justo.

It is important to note that if Colón de San Justo and Sanjustino manage to win their respective matches, they will be tied at the top and will have to face each other in a historic final, which could be played at the 15 de abril stadium. There is a possibility that if both leaders draw their respective matches, and Guadalupe wins on the highway, they could be crowned champions.

There will also be other attractions in the last round of the league championship. In Colonia San José, Universidad will host Ciclón Racing with Juan Bonnin in control, La Perla del Oeste with Newell´s Old Boys in Recreo Sur with Valentín Córdoba, and in the Rodolfo Candioti, Juventud Unida will host Gimnasia y Esgrima de Ciudadela with Ariel Correa. Additionally, Independiente will play against El Quillá (Ignacio Castellano), and Nobleza de Recreo against Academia Cabrera (Alejandro Aguilera).

Sportivo Guadalupe will have to win against Unión and wait for what happens with the teams from San Justo.
