Independiente draws and moves away from first places in the Argentine League Cup

Independiente, who was at a disadvantage for a long time, ended up drawing 3-3 at home against Godoy Cruz on Monday night, at the end of the fifth round of the Argentine League Cup.

In Mendoza (west), Godoy Cruz and Independiente staged a high-voltage match from start to finish, although the result did not help either of them, because the local is still in the lower part of the table, and the ‘Rojo’ , with three draws in a row, is far from the top positions in Zone 2, where it was eight points behind the leader Estudiantes.

Ezequiel Bullaude (19 and 63) and Martín Ojeda (79, from penalty) scored the goals for the ‘Tomba’, while Uruguayan Carlos Benavídez (44), Rodrigo Márquez (71) and Leandro Benegas (82) converted for Independiente.

Also in Zone 2, Tigre jumped to third place by beating Colón de Santa Fe 1-0 at home with a goal by Alexis Castro (33).

In the south of Buenos Aires, Arsenal and Lanús shared points in a changing and controversial 2-2, which the ‘Granate’ won early with shouts from José López (10) and Braian Aguirre (19), but Lucas Brochero (32) discounted, and then Facundo Kruspzky (56) signaled the final equality for Arsenal with a great goal from outside the area.
