Banfield came to Liniers with the clear objective of taking a point. And he took three gold. With that great goal from another game from the jewel of his inferiors Gerónimo Rivera. Vélez, who had to remain strong at the José Amalfitani, where he had four wins in a row, took another false step and got complicated heading into the final stretch of the definition of the only relegation in the annual table.
No one is still saved, but the Drill resolved a very tough duel. It is enough to look at the annual standings to understand the present of the two teams, which have been struggling for some time. From a football perspective, little or nothing. If you add the general nervousness about the situation, everything becomes complicated. Everything weighs. There are only four dates left, twelve points in conflict. No one can sigh with relief. Minus Vélez and Banfield.
Méndez’s team started better, with a certain calm, as a result of the last victory against Atlético Tucumán and the draw in Rosario against Central. Four points that gave him some oxygen particles. He took over as the protagonist and was close to scoring with that header from Elías Gómez that Cambeses sent into the corner at 8 minutes. Also, several crosses brought danger to the rival area. But by not finding the goal, he was diluted. The stance of the visit was speculative. Wait, buckle in the back and look for a quick exit, some error in the delivery at the exit of the premises.
Falcioni’s teams know how to build from the bottom up. Then, he closed in more and more on Vélez, who after 20 minutes could not build plays. Encina, Francisco Pizzini was very imprecise and the ball bounced off him several times. And the team needs his good footing, like the center he threw for Santiago Castro’s goal in Arroyito.

With calm, parsimony, with plenty of time to take each goal kick, each lateral, each free kick, Banfield moved Vélez away from his area and began to make Chila Gómez uncomfortable, first with a free kick, then with a shot from outside the area after a bad start by Gianetti, and then with a shot by Cañete that the goalkeeper sent to the corner. Also, a couple of centers.
Arrivals must be listed in droppers. Collective actions, too. In general, poverty dominated, therefore, it was a very boring first time. For oblivion. With very little to highlight from an individual point of view. Aquino’s mobility and Elías Gómez’s rise in the local team. Recovery and clarity to open Eric Remedi’s game on the visit. For the fans, a lot of concern.
Vélez’s second times were not good almost all year. And this time was not the exception. When it does not reach the goal, when it is a sum of inaccuracies, when the murmurs from the stands and stalls subside, when people make their disagreement heard, the decline is pronounced. And with little, advancing just a few meters, with centers into the area, the Drill began to approach the local goal again.
Given the lack of reaction from the team, Gallego Méndez, who is slow to make changes, made four variations between 20 and 25 minutes into the final half.
After several dates, the kid Gianluca Prestianni re-entered, the only one who could unbalance with his impudence. But It is not a good time in Vélez to play alone and try to make your own. There are no individual saviors. Not the Liniers. But yes in the South.
The game got too dirty and Vélez entered the game that he wanted and suited Banfield. From a silly infraction by a Vélez striker, from exasperating Cambeses to make time once again (who won the clique), came the winning goal for the visitor. After a long shot, the ball was left for Rivera near the big area, he hooked it, settled in and took a saving right hand for Banfield. The place went, once again, from excitement to dismay. The team left whistled, worried about an increasingly complicated future.
