Belgrano always tends to cause problems for river. This is the rival that the ‘millionaires’ lost on the saddest day in their history, that afternoon of relegation. The people of Córdoba became an enemy who feared them. However, those ghosts did not show up on a cold Saturday afternoon at Monumental.
This River from Martín Demichelis crushed Belgrano. He did almost the same as against Central Córdoba on the first day of the Argentine league. He even repeated the result: 3-0. Of course, there is a difference. Ilog was so strong today that it scored without its top scorer Miguel Borja needing to score.
There is a big difference in the individual hierarchy between River and many of its soccer rivals in Argentina. And it was noticed again. The millionaires had 77 percent possession and improved it with the number of effective shots on goal: 12 against none from Belgrano. And on corner kicks, the same: 7 against 1.
In any case, not everything is so simple for River. Although it created situations, it did not become popular. It was not popular. It was difficult for him to find the first goal. And he found it because of a serious mistake by Belgrano, one of those mistakes that cannot be made against teams like River because they are deadly. The Cordobans failed at first. Pablo Solari pressed hard, stole and played for Claudio Echeverri. And the Devil slid like a crack into the place and put it in a corner.
The story was settled by the millionaires in the 81st minute, with Facundo Colidio (for Borja), who had his celebration after a lucky detour. He thus scored his eighth goal in the last eight games.
Colidio is a substitute thinking about the midweek Argentine Cup match. Martín Demichelis doses minutes. And he gave the title to Solari, who was not only helpful in removing and creating the first goal. He also accurately squeezed a good pass from Nacho Fernández and brought it down, next to a post. The perfect ending.
Live the days of joy and dreams River. It wasn’t a lesson in football, but it drowned out Belgrano, who barely had an answer. And he had a crush on her. Demichelis’ team has qualified for the round of 16 of the Libertadores as the first in its group and a day before the closing of the qualifying phase. And in the Argentine league, two days, two 3-0 wins. Perfect start.
