September 25th features a match where Tigre will travel to La Plata to battle Gimnasia La Plata in a meeting of these two Superliga teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 17 degrees, which should make for a nice day for football. Gimnasia La Plata sits at 2nd place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 0-1 loss against Central Cordoba SdE. Cristian Gonzalo Torres struck first for Central Cordoba SdE in the %Minute minute of the %HalfNumber half’s stoppage time, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring At the end of 90 a dissapointed Gimnasia La Plata couldn’t manage to score, and Central Cordoba SdE took the shutout win. With 18 points in their last 10 matches Gimnasia La Plata should be reasonably happy with their performance, while in their last match, Tigre recorded a 2-0 shutout win against Vélez Sarsfield. Blas Armoa Núñez scored the first goal for Tigre in the 6th minute, then Facundo Colidio added another in the 22nd minute In the end, Vélez Sarsfield was frustrated by Tigre’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Tigre ended the match with the shutout victory. Tigre is looking for direction having 3 win and 1 losses in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out.
Tigre’s top weapon lately has been Mateo Retegui, who has three goals in the last 5 matches. Nicolás Contín and Leonardo Morales are the top scorers for Gimnasia La Plata in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
