San Lorenzo took a step forward in the game in its second preseason game. The result, the 1-0 defeat, hurts, of course. Vasco da Gama did not deserve so much. But take everything calmly. This is an adjustment stage.
San Lorenzo left a good image in the first half. He grew compared to the first friendly against Gimnasia.
In the absence of Adam Bareiro, Rubén Insua included the youthful Toto Medina to give fluidity and ingenuity to the intensity and recovery of Eric Remedi, Elián Irala and Manuel Insaurralde.
Thus, San Lorenzo had more rhythm and depth than in its first presentation. A shot from Tobías Medina passed very close. And an individual play by Giay, covering a large part of the field, ended with a shot by Agustín that grazed a post and went out.
Ramón Díaz’s Vasco da Gama has individual hierarchy. That’s why a couple of times he worried. There Facundo Altamirano demonstrated his hierarchy with two good covers.
The match slowed down in the final stage. Toto Medina continued to contribute some paintings. He was fouled, he took the free kick and the goalkeeper took it from an angle.
Later, Gastón Campi and Matías Hernández entered for Carlos Sánchez and Remedi. But they almost couldn’t settle… Vasco da Gama, who had not deserved to win, found the first with a header from Leo, at 29 minutes.
Then, Nahuel Arias and Francisco Perruzzi entered for Irala and Insaurralde. However, nothing would change much. And it was just a victory for Vasco da Gama.
Now the Ciclón returns to Buenos Aires to focus on what really matters, in the debut on Saturday the 27th in the League Cup against Lanús. It will be at home. Let’s take over the Bidegain!
