Instituto de Córdoba Stuns Gimnasia La Plata 3-1 in League Cup Match

Gimnasia La Plata lost 3-1 this Thursday in Bosque against Instituto de Córdoba, which surprisingly reached the top in Zone A together with Argentinos Juniors, at the start of the eighth round of the League Cup. The triperos led by Leonardo Madelón ended up with nine players due to the expulsions of Matías Abaldo and Yonathan Cabral.

Diego Dabove’s team started better than their host, who showed some inaccuracies. After a quarter of an hour, the Wolf managed to balance the procedure.

But the Cordobans were very involved in the game and after half an hour of play, Facundo Suárez received a deep pass from Lodico and, enabled by Canto and facing Insfrán, he shot it at the goalkeeper to score the opening.

Gimnasia suffered the blow and could not have the ball to put together the game and aspire to tie. To make matters worse, the entire Institute immediately claimed a handball inside the La Plata area, but referee Lamolina did not consider it a penalty. And before the break, Abaldo was sent off after a bad tackle from behind on Puebla. The Wolf couldn’t get his foot in the door.

In the second stage, Instituto gave way and, even with one more player, paid for it with a tie. De Blasis took the lead, the visiting defense fell asleep after a bad clearance and Benjamín Domínguez did not forgive.

The joy lasted a sigh because Suárez immediately escaped in a lethal counterattack and Sánchez brought him down inside the area; penalty that Puebla changed into a goal and unleashed triple frustration. Then, a terrible delivery behind by Enrique left the third served to Suárez, who squandered an unbeatable chance to close the game.

El Lobo pushed and went for the heroic one, but Instituto settled the dispute with defender Jonathan Bay in a flipper play and inattention, he was left with a great success and dreams big.
