Jul 25th features a match where Banfield plays host to Argentinos Juniors in a meeting of these two extremely mismatched Superliga teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 16 degrees, a perfect day for football. Banfield is fresh off their 0-1 loss against Talleres Córdoba. Diego Valoyes scored the first goal for Talleres Córdoba in the 17th minute, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring At the end of 90 a dissapointed Banfield couldn’t manage to score, and Talleres Córdoba took the shutout win. Banfield is looking for direction having earned 14 points in their last 10 matches, while argentinos Juniors is fresh off their 2-0 shutout win against Boca Juniors. Gabriel Carabajal scored the first goal for Argentinos Juniors in the 23rd minute, then Gastón Verón added another in the 42nd minute on a feed from Gabriel Carabajal In the end, Boca Juniors was frustrated by Argentinos Juniors’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Argentinos Juniors ended the match with the shutout victory. With 19 points in their last 10 matches Argentinos Juniors should be reasonably happy with their performance.
