The biggest clash of the opening weekend of the 2009 Torneo Apertura could well be the match in
Rosario between Central and Racing, two clubs eager to improve on their relegation points averages
early on in the season. This was particularly important in Central's case, and it was the hosts who
won thanks to a [.

Largely thanks to the efforts of River Plate, Chacarita Juniors, Independiente, Vélez Sársfield
and Estudiantes, there were 33 goals in the Argentine Primera División Torneo Apertura during the
weekend just gone. You can watch all of them right here on this post, since the normal TN Sportblog

Three teams are tied on twenty points at the top of the Torneo Apertura after Saturday's matches,
and San Lorenzo could join them on Sunday. As well as Central's 2-0 win over Independiente,
Estudiantes had already won on Friday night, 1-0 over Atlético Tucumán, and on Saturday Banfield
(3-0 at home to Godoy Cruz) and [.
Five teams remain unbeaten after the sixth round of matches in the Torneo Apertura, although
amazingly one of them San Lorenzo are down in 8th. Having drawn four, Saturday's five-goal thriller
over Tigre was only their second victory of the campaign. Chacarita finally got a win, whilst the
replay of last season's Clausura [.
The goals from the seventh round of the 2009 Torneo Apertura are online now, and they include some
crackers. Watch out in particular for Pablo Toranzo's screamer for Huracán against Racing, and
Juan Román Riquelme's equaliser for Boca against Vélez which was a far better goal than the
improbable 40-yard header Martín Palermo scored [.
The goals from the tenth round of the 2009 Torneo Apertura are online now, but the people at the TN
Sportblog are obviously Colón fans still hungover from seeing their team go top on Sunday evening,
because they've not updated their site since before the superclásico. You can watch the goals
right here though, embedded [.

them right here on HEGS. Read on for the goal video, as well as the lowdown on which teams are
wearing which coloured shirts, for those unfamiliar with the kits. Running order: Argentinos (red)

Over the course of the 2009 Torneo Apertura, the mantra of fútbol para todos has transmogrified
into something meaning that one easily embeddable, easily findable goal video for the whole round
has become increasingly hard to find. The closest I can find are the four videos embedded here,
which viewed in order will give you [.
The goals from Saturday's matches are now online, and there are some true golazos among them, not
least from Darío Gandín for Independiente and two magnificent free kicks in one match: the first
from Chacarita Juniors' Emanuel Centurión and the other, cancelling it out, from Sebastián Longo
of Atlético Tucumán.
Sunday's matches saw San Lorenzo comfortably beat Boca Juniors in the clásico, after which Vélez
claimed a win by the same scoreline (3-0) away to Tigre on a veritable bowling green of a pitch.
There was even time for a shock: Racing visited league leaders Banfield and won, 2-1. Three games,
nine goals; you can [.
The eighth round of the 2009 Torneo Apertura finally ended on Monday night with the first match of
Leonardo Astrada's second spell in charge of River Plate. There wasn't even the shortest of
honeymoon periods, though Independiente took a 3-0 lead by half time and only a Marcelo Gallardo
penalty with a minute to [.
There were only twenty goals scored in the Argentine Primera División during the weekend just
gone, but you can see all of them on the TN Sportblog by clicking this link. As usual, if you want
to see the order in which the goals appear and which teams are wearing which shirts, just read

Banfield and Newell's lead the table with Argentine champions Vélez, South American champions
Estudiantes, Colón and Diego Simeone's San Lorenzo in the chasing pack. River Plate and Boca
Juniors both lost again, whilst Racing won in style. All the heroes and villains are here as ever.
Read on... Primera División Torneo Apertura 2009, twelfth round: Vélez Sársfield (F.
Due to December's Club World Cup in the United Arab Emirates, the Torneo Apertura eighteenth round
match between Central and Estudiantes de La Plata was moved forward to last night in order to avoid
a fixture clash later in the year for the South American champions. Taking their eye off the ball,
Estudiantes played dreadfully [.
The lack of a single video featuring all the weekend's goals last week meant that the round 14
goals post was a rather fragmented one. From now on, then, I'll be posting each day's goals the
following afternoon or evening, when they're online (I've been a bit slow this first time, I
admit). This will: [.
There were ten goals spread across three matches on Sunday, as the clásico rosarino finished all
square, Boca Juniors thrashed Gimnasia La Plata with goals from Gary Medel, Osvaldo Gaitán and a
double from Federico Insúa, and River Plate claimed a draw away to Godoy Cruz, with Mauro Rosales
scoring again following his recent return [.
Completing the goal videos from the fifteenth round of action in the Torneo Apertura, we've got the
strikes from Monday evening's two matches. Argentinos and Arsenal drew 1-1, before Vélez having
given their opponents a head start with an own goal thrashed Racing 4-2. Watch all eight of the
goals right here.
In the second midweek match (the first was a couple of weeks ago) designed to prevent a fixture
pile-up for Estudiantes de La Plata due to their Club World Cup appearance in December, the
champions of South America did the same as in the last one they lost. And by defeating the Copa
Libertadores [.
Huracán lost yet again, this time 2-0 away to Independiente on Friday night. El Rojo scored in the
first minute of the second half, and again near the end, first through Leonel Galeano and then
through a solo effort from Darío Gandín. The storm, though, is elsewhere. On the day that
Atlético Tucumán drew 1-1 [.
Saturday's matches saw Chacarita Juniors claim their fourth win of the season, over Godoy Cruz,
thanks to a winning goal from Diego Morales which came four minutes into stoppage time. And in
Núñez, River Plate drew with Estudiantes courtesy of another show-stopping return to action and
stoppage time goal from Ariel Ortega.
The goals from the final day of the sixteenth round of the 2009 Torneo Apertura are online now. You
can see the crucial points of Newell's narrow away win over Colón (only their fifth ever),
Argentinos' edging out of Gimnasia and Lanús's extraordinary last-ten-minutes thrashing of Arsenal
right here.
Friday evening's matches saw Godoy Cruz and Rosario Central battle to a draw which doesn't suit
either team tremendously, and Racing get a win over Tigre thanks to a great finish from Sebastián
Grazzini. In the other match, Banfield travelled to Huracán and got a 1-0 win courtesy of a shot
from Santiago Silva (who [.
Following a controversial election which was 'won' by Rodolfo D'Onofrio by a margin of only two
votes, a recount was held which went into the early hours of Sunday morning, and the result is in:
Daniel Passarella, former player and manager, is the new president of Club Atlético River Plate,
having won 5,298 votes to [.
Completing the goal videos from the seventeenth round of the Torneo Apertura, we've got the goals
right here from Vélez's 3-1 win over River Plate (which confirmed the hosts as the top points
scorers domestically of 2009), Newell's 2-1 home defeat at the hands of Arsenal, and Lanús's win
over Gimnasia by two magnificent goals [.

The goals from Saturday's matches in the final round of the 2009 Torneo Apertura are online now,
and you can watch them below. Argentinos Juniors signed off the year in style with a 5-1 thrashing
of Huracán, who after such a promising first half to the year will be glad to see the back of
[...]
Sunday's matches were orderly in scoreline if nothing else: there were four 2-0 scorelines, all but
one of those going to the away side (Boca, who beat Banfield 2-0, were the only home victors but
their victims didn't care because they took the title anyway). Vélez Sársfield vs Rosario Central
was the sole exception [.
I really needed an early night on Monday, which is why the full scores from the final round of a
wonderful Torneo Apertura didn't go up as usual right after the last match. Monday's two games saw
only one goal Atlético Tucumán beat Gimnasia but you can watch it here all the same. [...]
The Torneo Apertura started in chaos, with no-one sure which TV channels games would be screened on
and many finding it so difficult to find just one title contender that Boca Juniors, of all teams,
were held up by some commentators as the most likely candidates (I'd never make a silly mistake
like that of [.
According to TN and ESPN, that is. Argentina's a funny place. National news broadcaster TN decided
this year to run a ' Ten Best Goals Of The Apertura' feature, which their website says is,
'inspired by the Puskás Award [FIFA's new "best goal of the year" gong].' It's as if this weren't
an idea the [.
