Salto Uruguay beat Arsenal 2-1, recovering after two losses, based on an interesting collective game and the effectiveness of Emiliano Rosas.
With just 8 minutes played, there was a pass behind the Verdolagas defenders that allowed the scorer to score 1-0 for Salto Uruguay with a cross shot.
The deans were more incisive in attack, taking advantage of Silveira’s mobility and Rosas’ diagonal runs.
Arsenal, for their part, tried to press the middle of the pitch, trying to create some play circuits through Toriani, but they lacked the depth to reach the goal defended by González.
As the final minutes of the first half drew to a close, Acevedo took advantage of a short clearance in the opponent’s area and connected with the ball into the back of the net to tie the game.
In the second half, Salto Uruguay managed to score again, taking advantage of a dirty play in the opponent’s area that Rosas took advantage of again for his second goal of the season.
Noboa’s team tried to react, mainly through substitutions, but had a couple of chances that they were unable to capitalize on.
The Dean did not let his foot off the accelerator and the offensive entries gave him more freshness to disturb the goal defended by Federico Noboa.
Great victory for Salto Uruguay against a rival that has not been able to raise its footballing level compared to previous seasons and its participation in OFI.
