River lost 2-1 to Arsenal at the El Monumental stadium, within the framework of the fifth date of the Professional League tournament and missed the opportunity to be one of the leaders of the championship with 12 points.
With the goals from Lautaro Guzmán from a penalty and from Luis Leal, Arsenal embittered River, who could not join the batch of Defensa y Justicia, San Lorenzo, Lanús and Talleres, and left the bottom of the table by getting their first win in the tournament. José Paradela had scored for “Millo” at the start.
In the goal for the locals, the entire play was started by Enzo Díaz with a great pass to Ignacio Fernández. Nacho opened the ball for Lucas Beltrán, who faced to the end and threw the pass-low center for the Venezuelan Salomón Rondón, who did not arrive but the ball was left to Paradela to define hand in hand with Alejandro Medina.
Arsenal played better, despite the fact that River had some approximations. Felipe Peña Biafore had an excellent game and always assisted his teammates. Franco Armani tried to fix a mistake by Agustín Palavecino and committed a penalty on Santiago Paiva. The striker of “Arse”, Lautaro Guzmán, changed the execution for a goal.
In Arsenal’s best moment, Adrián Sporle made a run through the left sector, he threw a spectacular cross in the middle of the area to Leal, who connected it with his right foot, between the central defenders and stepping into the six-yard box.
