The goals from Sunday's two Promoción second leg matches, which resulted in both Gimnasia La Plata
and Rosario Central keeping their places in the Primera A, are now online and you can watch them
right here. Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata 3 0 Atlético Rafaela (3-3 agg., Gimnasia stay up due to
'sporting advantage') Rosario Central [.
The final weekend of the 2009 Torneo Clausura is upon us at last, and it's going to be a dramatic
one. Racing and Newell's celebrate having nothing to play for to kick things off on Friday night,
whilst Saturday sees Central take on Godoy Cruz in a match that could be vital to next season's
[...]
In circumstances about as controversial as they come, and after thirteen minutes of second half
stoppage time, Vélez Sársfield beat Huracán by a single late goal from Maxi Moralez who was sent
off for his celebration to climb above them in the table and claim the Torneo Clausura 2009 title.
Huracán had a [.
Racing and Newell's Old Boys completed their seasons on Friday night in El Cilindro, with Ricardo
Caruso Lombardi's boys completing a stunning campaign largely under their new manager to climb to
fifth place prior to the rest of the weekend's games. After an appalling start which saw Alexis
Machuca give Newell's the lead only [.
The big finale of the 2009 Torneo Clausura has seen its first act played out with a late winner for
visitors Lanús in Tucumán and a victory for the hosts in La Plata which see Gimnasia La Plata
secure a relegation playoff spot ahead of San Martín de Tucumán, who go straight down to B [...]
After the finalísima comes the rather more mundane business of recording the scores from the final
round of the 2009 Torneo Clausura. Vélez took the title and Gimnasia de Jujuy and San Martín de
Tucumán both go down, as we already know, but elsewhere there were wins for Boca and San Lorenzo,
one last humiliation [.
Needing a three-goal win against a team they'd never previously beaten in three encounters the most
recent of which was just three days ago Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata left it oh so late but, in the
last twenty minutes, they struck three times the last two goals coming with only nine [...]
The goals from the final round of the 2009 Torneo Clausura are online now, and you can watch them
on the TN Sport blog by clicking here. As usual, if you want to know which teams are wearing which
shirts to tell the games apart, just read on and I'll give you the running order [...]
The first leg of the first Promoción (playoff) for a place in the Primera División next season in
Córdoba, and top flight incumbents Rosario Central had goalkeeper Jorge Broun to thank for a clean
sheet against hosts Belgrano which allowed Jesús Méndez to settle a very tight match with a
tremendous drive from outside the [.
In the second Promoción between Primera A and B Nacional, Atlético Rafaela hosted Gimnasia y
Esgrima La Plata on Thursday afternoon in the first leg. The result was the heaviest win for a B
Nacional side over a Primera A team since the Promoción was introduced, courtesy of a hat trick
from striker Aldo Visconti.
Photo by guille rusconi on the HEGS Flickr pool It's a bit late this year, but with the pre-seasons
well and truly underway it's about time HEGS explained the teams who will be changing divisions
this year. We've got the Copa Sudamericana participants, and every promotion and relegation through
the Argentine league, down to and including [.
The Torneo Clausura now has just three matches remaining the final relegation clashes and the title
decider, a preview of which you can hear, if you've not already, over on the Mundo Albiceleste
podcast from earlier in the week. Argentina's representatives for the Copa Sudamericana are all
confirmed after Saturday's matches, and for once [.
What with the Copa Libertadores final first leg as well as those of the Promociones during the
week, I didn't have time to post this link. Those who paid attention to HEGS last week will
remember my debut appearance in a podcast over on Seba's wonderful Mundo Albiceleste, and on
Tuesday night, in the face [.
In the remaining second leg of this year's Promoción in Primera A, Rosario Central eased to a 1-1
draw at home to Belgrano de Córdoba which confirms their participation in Primera A next season
thanks to a 2-1 aggregate win. In a match that was considerably less dramatic than the ridiculous
Gimnasia comeback against Rafaela which [.
There's been some transfer or other in Manchester (I'll let Seba fill you in on that), but of more
immediate concern to the domestic scene, Miguel Angel Russo has resigned as manager of Rosario
Central, the day after guiding them safely through the relegation playoff against Belgrano de
Córdoba. Russo actually enjoyed a winning spell at [.
