Arsenal-Argentinos and Colón-Gymnastics, the matches of the day
ARSENAL 3-2 ARGENTINE
Arsenal turned around a tough commitment to win 3-2 against Argentinos in Sarandí for Zone 1 of the League Cup. The host recovered from an early goal, reaped three fundamental points and feeds the illusion of permanence.

After the initial loss against Instituto, Arse had a lousy start because they came out of the middle and after eight seconds they were already at a disadvantage thanks to Gabriel Ávalos’s goal. Lucas Brochero’s quick equality leveled the actions, but he returned to row from behind in the result after 32 minutes due to Luciano Gondou’s celebration.
Already in the complement, the referee Nicolás Lamolina charged Arsenal with a penalty at the request of the VAR, in charge of Jorge Baliño, to signal the initial kick of the comeback. Santiago Toloza converted the maximum penalty 19 minutes from the end and, seven minutes later, Néstor Breitenbruch completed the long-awaited header that declared victory for those led by Federico Vilar. In the last quarter of an hour, Alan Lescano was sent off at El Bicho.

In the same way, the homeowner is last in the Annual Table with 25 points and is the bottom in the averages, 16 units from Platense, the last one that would be saved from going down to the First National. Next Monday they will seek to continue the winning streak against Barracas Central as a visitor. On the other hand, Argentinos could not get close to the qualifying positions for the Copa Libertadores 2024 and on the following day they will receive Atlético Tucumán in La Paternal.

COLÓN-GYMNASTICS:
Colón-Gymnastics, key duel for permanence
A match that is lived with the calculator in hand is the one that will take place at the Brigadier Estanislao López stadium (Cementerio de los Elefantes). There Colón de Santa Fe and Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata collide. The referee is Fernando Echenique and will be televised by TNT Sports.
El Sabalero, after an important renewal within its squad, eliminated Lanús from the Copa Argentina and began the tournament with a 1-0 victory against Independiente in Avellaneda. However, they must add units to move away from the relegation zone (today they would be playing a triangle with Huracán and el Rojo to maintain the category for the Annual Table).
El Lobo, meanwhile, has gone nine games without winning and began the League Cup with a tough 3-0 defeat at home against Talleres de Córdoba. He also accumulates 30 units, which positions him only two units above his current rival in the bid to avoid relegation to the First National.
