Within the framework of an
Argentine Cup
that since its return in 2012 has given great surprises,
Miter from Santiago del Estero
added one more by knocking down
Belgrano from Córdoba
this Wednesday at the Eva Perón stadium in Junín.
The Santiago team, which debuted in the First National with a home win against San Telmo, eliminated the First Division team 2-1 and advanced to the 16th round.
at the end of the competition, where the winner of the cross between Unión and Gimnasia de Mendoza awaits.
In stoppage time of the first half, when 0-0 seemed to be the story of the opening 45 minutes, a
penalty by David Romero
gave the advantage to those led by Joaquín Sastre, who gained confidence and tranquility from there.
There was an offside in the previous action, but both the referee Andrés Gariano and his assistant omitted it
and added a new referee error to a day cured of horror by what was experienced with Deportivo Riestra and Comunicación on the Temperley field .
They went 1-0 at halftime.
MITER GOAL!
With controversy, the Santiago del Estero team surprises Belgrano in Junín: at the end of the first half, Romero, with a penalty, made it 1 to 0. The play should have been annulled due to a previous offside.

That goal, which came after a definition in which goalkeeper Nahuel Losada guessed Romero's intention but was unable to get it out, was a mental boost for Mitre, who dominated Belgrano in the first minutes of the complement and reached 2-0.
What I say is a goal, a great goal,
an old narrator would say.
Cristian Díaz, the right back, found
Franco Posse
inside the area and the forward defined the right corner of Losada's goal first, which he was not going to be able to do.
Like Lautaro Martínez.
Thus, after 60 minutes of play the 2-0 score seriously complicated the Cordoba Pirate.
MITER'S SECOND ARRIVED!

From there, as the clock ran, the First National team began to play with the tranquility of the result and retreated on the field, allowing their rival to come, who with greater urgency assumed the leading role in the game and imposed the conditions. .
The discount of
Juan Barinaga,
who appeared behind everyone on the right to sweep and connect a cross from Bryan Reyna to the goal, sowed excitement in those led by Guillermo Farré, but it was nothing more than that.
DISCOUNT BELGRANO!
El Pirata returns to the match against Miter: 1-2 in Junín through Barinaga.
