The unfair 2-0 defeat by group H of the

was the first of the year in Bajo Flores.

Fortaleza came to do what rivals usually do in these cup duels: wait and counterattack.

That is why the responsibility of the leading role had to be assumed by San Lorenzo.

The Gallego team is not very used to having that role of leading actor.

He tends to feel more comfortable in a supporting role.

However, he picked up the gauntlet and accepted the challenge.

El Ciclón put on the brave suit and went out to look for the local victory aboard the self-confidence of Nahuel Barrios who, together with Malcom Braida, puts together one of the most unbalanced companies in Argentine soccer.

Over there, on the left, this dynamic duo spent their time touching the ball to achieve the overflow or the diagonal towards the area.

So much was the owner of the house immersed in the dominant role that it was rare to see him in a very bad position in the first counterattack that the Brazilian team put in.

Three against two they had remained in the Barcelona bottom, but the visit could not take advantage of it.

Nor did San Lorenzo manage to squeeze the situations generated.

Barrios, Braida, Adam Bareiro, once again Braida.

Neither was fine in front of the rival goalkeeper, Fernando Miguel, in a rough first half.

Argentine Juan Martín Lucero had to leave the game after 17 minutes due to injury and was replaced by his compatriot, Silvio Romero.

And Bareiro was on the verge of not continuing due to a shocking injury to his ankle from the involuntary stepping on by Emanuel Brítez when they both fell after disputing an aerial ball.

Finally, he was able to continue.

In the fervor to try to take advantage on the scoreboard, Boedo's cast left some gaps behind.

And Fortaleza occupied them.

Moisés escaped to the left, reached the bottom and sent the pass to the middle.

Yago Pikachu tried a cue and failed to connect the ball that went through the area without being intercepted by someone.

Bareiro did not seem to be affected much by the six stitches that he must have given his left foot in the locker room.

The Guaraní played with the usual deployment and after a cross from Jalil Elías (who started with a protective mask due to the broken nose suffered in Córdoba and later removed it) he was very close to converting.

The shot from him came very high.

Those directed by Juan Pablo Vojvoda never left their script.

Not one comma changed their party planning.

Always dressed in 4-4-2, the Brazilians hardly attacked in the match.

San Lorenzo was more careful not to leave too much free ground, beyond the fact that they did not lose control of the ball.

Those in blue and red had two problems.

First, apart from Barrios and Braida and some Bareiro until he left at 15 in the final stage, no one else accompanied the attack.

And second, the tiredness.

With the passing of the minutes, the Insua team felt more and more exhausted due to the accumulation of matches with almost the same formation (their players are the ones that have accumulated the most minutes in local football so far this season).

When he had to push the most, he ran out of gasoline.

And from a free kick came the center, Tinga's advance, the stick and the rebound off Batalla's back that went into the goal to the perplexity of the entire Nuevo Gasómetro.

San Lorenzo was disconcerted and suffered the second slap due to Calebe's run and Guilherme's goal in the face of defensive passivity.

It could have been worse: the VAR annulled Romero's third for taking it with his hand.
