Banfield and Talleres de Remedio de Escalada tied 1-1 in a controversial classic during the nineties and the Albirrojo made history and eliminated them on penalties to get into the quarterfinals of the Argentine Cup. The match was played at the Estadio Centenario Ciudad de Quilmes; and the classic was reissued after 30 years. Now, Talleres will have to face Huracán, who also won on penalties against Argentinos Juniors.
In the first half, Talleres de Remedios de Escalada started better, having the ball and generating a lot of danger in the Banfield goal, where José Devecchi, debuting with the Taladro jersey, had to appear several times. But when everything seemed to be closer to the advantage for those from the B Nacional, those directed by Munúa scored the 1-0 thanks to Rodríguez’s goal that came after a corner kick.
The result was unfair because the Albirrojo had been better, but had not been able to score. Enrique was one of the most influential players who had some good chances. At 34 Banfield had a double chance with Sepúlveda to make it 2-0, but first Sánchez cleared it with his chest and then the post denied him the celebration. Two minutes from the end of the first half, Fernando Duré deflected a cross from Enrique very well with his head to equalize.
In the second half, Munúa moved the bench a lot and scored four goals. But even that did not work for the Uruguayan, because he had more of the ball but could not generate much risk. Talleres stood up well and in the 92nd minute had an incredible chance that Jeremías Denis could not convert.
In the penalty shootout, there was also a lot of parity, so much so that they were tied after kicking five and had to extend the definition to the sixth, where Bonifacio kicked it well over the crossbar and Denis converted to unleash the Albirrojo madness.
Bombshell in San Lorenzo: they will try to bring Batalla back
San Lorenzo, in the midst of an institutional and sporting crisis, will try to bring back an old acquaintance: they want Augusto Batalla as a reinforcement in this transfer market, after Facundo Altamirano’s mistake in Atlético Mineiro’s goal in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores.
The 28-year-old goalkeeper, who became captain of the Cyclone with Rubén Darío Insua, ended his loan at Granada in Spain and returned to River, owner of his pass (his contract ends in December). He will not have a place at the Millionaires: he has Franco Armani and Jeremías Ledesma (new addition) ahead of him.
In the last few hours, the management of San Lorenzo began conversations with Augusto Batalla’s entourage, with the intention of bringing him back. They even do not rule out buying his pass. The goalkeeper could return to the Boedo club, 8 months after his departure to Spanish football.
Independiente’s real chances of signing Emiliano Rigoni
After lifting its inhibitions, Independiente is not giving up the fight to sign Emiliano Rigoni in this transfer market. Julio Vaccari has already been brought Marco Pellegrino, Kevin Lomónaco, Felipe Loyola, Federico Vera and Santiago Montiel, in that order. Now, the objective is a winger and all guns are aimed at the 2017 Copa Sudamericana champion.
The outlook is difficult for the leaders, since Rigoni asked for a very high contract that the Argentine club is not in a position to pay. And since the negotiation is far away, for now, the strategy is to convince the footballer from a sentimental point of view to repatriate him.
Although they call him all the time and Vaccari wants him, the truth is that the ex-Belgrano is waiting for an offer from abroad after terminating his contract with Austin FC of the MLS, where he arrived at the end of July 2022 as a ‘Designated Player’, for almost four million dollars for his transfer.
Independiente knows that it cannot make the same mistake and fill itself with debts that lead it to the abyss again. It pays its reinforcements in installments, instead of looking for cheap options or freedom of action, because it has no other economic way.
