Independiente aren't yet out of the hunt for a Copa Sudamericana place, but if they qualify for continental competition they'll be playing in it next season without their top scorer Germán Denis, whose transfer to Napoli is looking more and more like a done deal. Colón manager Antonio 'El Turco' Mohamed, meanwhile, is refusing to apologise [.
Early leaders Tigre and champions River have yet to play in the third weekend of the Apertura, but
on Friday evening Colón lead the league table after a 1-0 win away to Rosario Central for
their second win of the season. Having drawn with River on the opening weekend and thrashed
Gimnasia de Jujuy away [.
With two matches remaining of the 2008 Torneo Clausura, River Plate edged narrowly ahead of
Estudiantes in the table, and with the opening of a two-point gap at the top of the table they can
keep alive their dream of claiming a first trophy in four years, in Diego Simeone's first campaign
in charge.
Argentina has a team named Colon -- stop laughing -- which has a coach named
Antonio
Mohamed.
He's paid about $750 in fines for smoking on the bench, but he doesn't care.
The monetary damages are worth lighting up. So the reigning body had to do something dire.

fourth round Torneo Clausura match, which was called off due to torrential rain first time round.
There was very little to say about such a short match. Elsewhere, ex-Huracán manager Antonio
'Turco' Mohamed has taken over at [.
River Plate went temporarily top earlier on Sunday evening, and Boca Juniors leapfrogged them on
goal difference a couple of hours later by beating Colón de Santa Fé 2-1 in La Bombonera. The
league table tonight is topped by the two giants for the first time in a surprisingly long while,
although when the AFA [.
Boca Juniors and Estudiantes were both held to draws on Saturday, allowing River Plate to stretch
their lead at the top if they could beat champions Lanús away on Sunday - which they managed
courtesy of a brilliant strike from teenage forward Diego Buonanotte, and a penalty save from Juan
Pablo Carrizo.
Saturday's matches saw two 3-1 wins, one for Independiente and then one for San Lorenzo, to keep
both sides just a point apart in their battle to hang onto the coat-tails of the leading pack.
Independiente got a comfortable away win against Olimpo, whilst San Lorenzo claimed their sixth win
on the trot in the [.
