Boston River defeated Deportivo Maldonado 1-0 at Domingo Burgueño with a goal from Bruno Damiani in the second half that earned them three important points at home.
The match began with the home team controlling possession of the ball and trying to create opportunities with Franco Pérez and Leandro Suhr.
There were moments of getting close to Guillermo Reyes’ goal but without much clarity, having the only clear chance at 25′ when Emiliano Gómez managed to execute a cross shot that went wide.
From then on, the Fernando team grew, managed to establish itself in the midfield and had two good chances to break the tie.
The first was a shot by Pablo González that went just wide of the right post and the other, which made more than one person sigh, was a feat by Montiel who launched an attack and fired a shot that crashed over the crossbar. 0-0 and at half-time.
The celebration
In the second half, the entry of Hernán Toledo gave the visiting team greater momentum as they continued to try to get the longed-for goal that ultimately ended up going in favor of the opponent.
Jadson Viera sent Juan Manuel Gutiérrez and Bruno Damiani onto the pitch, two key changes to get to 1-0. The former lifted the cross for the number nine to head into the net and give Sastre the lead.
A goal that drove Chavo Díaz’s men to despair as they pushed forward in search of a tie, leaving spaces in the back, making the match emotional.
Little happened from there until the end, which ended with a 1-0 victory for Boston River against a Deportivo Maldonado that is in trouble in the standings.
