In a stadium with a small number of people, Gimnasia put the best it had at its disposal, trying to take advantage of Arsenal’s bad moment. With a clear offensive stance, Chirola Romero’s team tested from the beginning the formation of a new pair of attackers made up of Cristian Tarragona and Ivo Mammini.
Little, almost nothing, offered a process without a creative flight in the first quarter of an hour where there were no risk situations and the ball was lent permanently.
For the 15th date of the Professional League, Gimnasia equalizes against Arsenal 0-0 at Viaducto, with the need to continue adding after accumulating 4 of the last 6 points in the local tournament.
It is a clash of teams that need to get out of the bottom of the table with greater needs for the local that is also last in the table of averages, in real numbers, more than 4 games behind their predecessors.
The match will be played at the Julio Humberto Grondona stadium, with refereeing by Sebastián Martínez, who will be accompanied by Javier Uziga and Lucio Méndez as assistants, with Edgardo Zamora as Fourth referee while Salomé Di Iorio will be in charge of the VAR assisted by Diego Ceballos . The television broadcast will be on ESPN Premium and there will be supertransmi radial by La Redonda from 1:30 p.m..
For its part, Arsenal is penultimate with just 11 points, two units above Unión de Santa Fe. In addition, it is located at the bottom of the table of relegation averages, 14 points below Sarmiento de Junín who according to the table current would retain the category.
DT Carlos “Moncho” Ruiz will play a key game for his continuity, since Arse, after the victory over Tatengue, has just lost to Huracán 2-1 and suffered a harsh elimination in the 32nd round of the Argentine Cup on penalties against Villa Mitre, a match in which the coach arranged for an alternative formation to the usual one.
The right-back Lucas Souto will not be able to be in the local team for having accumulated five yellow cards and could be replaced by Néstor Breitenbruch, who started against the Bahía team. For his part, the Colombian Flabián Londoño Bedoya has been asking for a clue, but the DT would lean towards Luis Leal, the striker born in Portugal who previously wore the Newell’s Old Boys shirt.
