When everything was headed for penalties, the youthful
Oscar Cruz
surprised
Augusto Batalla
, who had become impassable, and
gave Peñarol a 1-0 victory over a San Lorenzo full of kids
.
Ruben Darío Insua
's team
lost their second game in the preseason in Uruguay.
On Saturday it will close with Danube.
Insane proof.
After last Sunday's goalless draw and penalty loss against Independiente del Valle, he rotated almost the entire team.
He just repeated Battle.
Later, he gave minutes to those who are substitutes, with the exception of
Federico Gattoni, the captain
, who had joined the preseason late since he traveled to Italy to apply for citizenship.
The Cyclone was a very young formation
: 21 years old was the average of the starting eleven in which the 19-year-old central midfielder Elian Irala made his debut, who showed personality and a good deployment.
Always on board the 5-2-3,
those from Boedo made goalkeeper Jonathan Lima shine
, who blocked a free kick from Agustín Martegani and a shot from Tomás Silva after a nice hook from the left.
Peñarol had not managed to progress on the field, until at the end of the first half they found an unbeatable chance through
a penalty
by the hand of Francisco Flores.
However, Batalla became a giant and took the shot from Abel Hernández.
After the break, the
Gallego
continued filming more values from the Cuerva quarry: Gonzalo Luján, Iván Leguizamón, Luis Sequeira, Francisco Perruzzi, Alexander Díaz.
With the changes,
the Argentine cast lost strength and had a hard time passing half the field
.
The Uruguayans, on the other hand, took control of the ball and chose the overflows and the centers as the way to the goal of Batalla, which was very firm.
Luján grabbed the spear a couple of times and went on the attack, generating danger.
In one, the youth threw a cross and generated a clear handball inside the area that was not collected by the Uruguayan referee Antonio García.
This failure of the judge was decisive because it could have changed the procedure.
About the hour, the kid Cruz, who had come in plugged in, took a punch that was impossible to stop and sentenced the game.
