Velez, 2009 Opening pointer

Fortin got over the defeat by 3 to 2 with Boca's last weekend and won, and local, Argentinos Juniors for one to zero. Maximiliano Moralez, former Racing, scored the only goal of the game. It was a game locked, complicated, with an Argentine who at times was better than all Gareca, who suffered too much to get this new victory to catapult to the top of the Apertura 2009.

The game started evenly, with both teams trying to generate threat on goal but without success. Cristaldo and Moralez were the most dangerous attack fortinero while Hauche Oberman and demanded of the last line of all Liniers. At 40 minutes the place would find the advantage on the scoreboard: Moralez defined with empty goal after a shot by Cristaldo that crashed off the crossbar and left paying the entire defense of Bug.

In the second half Borghi all determined to get out to save the tie and go undefeated at home in the bunch behind the leaders. Within five minutes Sosa had the equalizer but his shot was above the crossbar. Bogado also had, after a good free kick that Montoya was responsible for clearing. After 10 minutes the tie again had Canuto but goalkeeper Cordoba drown him again the cry of goal. On the final whistle had other chances Argentine tie Caruzzo's feet and head of Pavlovich, but all ended in the same place: in the hands of Montoya, who was man of the match and leave Velez key at least until students play at the tip of the Apertura 2009.
