Torneo Apertura 2009: round 14 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 16 November @ 09:41 PM EST
The fourteenth round of the Torneo Apertura ended on Monday. Relegation strugglers Racing claiming a hard-fought win over the champions of South America, Estudiantes de La Plata, thanks to a goal from a former Estudiantes player. Estudiantes' city rivals Gimnasia tore Huracán to shreds, running out 4-1 winners in a match which saw two superb [. Click to continue reading...

Millonarios show some character

Hasta El Gol Siempre 15 November @ 09:53 PM EST
In probably the most unexpected development of the domestic league's fourteenth round, River Plate played with spirit and intelligence to overturn a deficit and actually win a football match on Sunday afternoon. 1-0 down after only two-and-a-half minutes at home to Atlético Tucumán, it looked like the same old story for River.

Torneo Apertura 2009: round 13 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 09 November @ 06:44 PM EST
The thirteenth round of the 2009 Torneo Apertura ended on Monday night with a late, late goal from Arsenal de Sarandí midfielder Diego Galván which clinched a point for El Arse after they'd trailed for practically the entire second half to Huracán. Angel Cappa's team were thus denied a third win of the campaign. Click to continue reading...

Newell’s go top and Atlético return to winning ways

Hasta El Gol Siempre 07 November @ 11:00 PM EST
Saturday's matches saw Newell's Old Boys return to the top of the table with a 2-1 home win over River Plate in which, not for the first time, Diego Buonanotte gave the visitors their only joy of the match. A little later, Atlético Tucumán ended a run of eight matches without a win, thrashing Tigre [. Click to continue reading...

Two wins, two leaders

Hasta El Gol Siempre 02 November @ 09:52 PM EST
Monday evening's matches saw Banfield claim a 2-1 victory at home to Estudiantes, and Newell's grab a late win by the same scoreline away to Tigre. With these results, both teams go joint top with 26 points, two ahead of champions Vélez and three ahead of Estudiantes and San Lorenzo. Colón could go joint third [. Click to continue reading...

Torneo Apertura 2009: Round 11 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 29 October @ 09:51 PM EST
Boca Juniors beat Chacarita Juniors by three golazos to nil (losing Juan Román Riquelme to a foot injury until 2010 in the process), and Lanús dismembered Tigre in El Sur, but the big story of Thursday was River Plate's 2-1 victory over Argentinos Juniors the Núñez giants' first away win in 17 attempts, with [.

Independiente return home

Hasta El Gol Siempre 28 October @ 10:06 PM EST
Tuesday and Wednesday have seen some decent games in the midweek round of the Torneo Apertura, with Estudiantes regaining top spot with a 2-1 away win over Godoy Cruz on Tuesday, hours after champions Vélez moved into sixth (two points off the top) with a 2-1 win over Atlético Tucumán that came thanks to a [.

Torneo Apertura 2009: round 10 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 26 October @ 12:00 AM EST
The game of musical chairs atop the Primera División gathers apace. Estudiantes, Banfield and Newell's have all led the table at various points since Friday afternoon, but at the end of the weekend it's Colón who are left looking down on the rest of Argentina, after a 2-1 win at home to San Lorenzo courtesy [.

Torneo Apertura 2009: round 9 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 18 October @ 08:57 PM EST
We're now halfway through the Torneo Apertura, and two points separate 1st from 8th. How's the AFA's playoff system going to work if everyone ends up on the same points total? San Lorenzo lead after edging out Central on Friday evening, Racing and Gimnasia La Plata both lost on Saturday, and Sunday saw Rolando Schiavi [. Click to continue reading...

Thursday night action

Hasta El Gol Siempre 08 October @ 09:59 PM EST
It was an intrigue-packed evening of football in Argentina on Thursday, in the eighth round of the 2009 Torneo Apertura. Colón went fourth with a performance full of golazos to beat Arsenal 4-1. Shortly afterwards champions Vélez Sársfield, who haven't lost a single match at home in 2009, ended Argentinos Juniors' unbeaten run with a [. Click to continue reading...

Torneo Apertura 2009: Round 7 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 04 October @ 09:39 PM EST
Martín Palermo scored an amazing 45-yard header to win a five-goal bonanza in La Bombonera as Boca Juniors became the first team this season to beat Vélez Sársfield. It's got the more excitable elements of the Argentine press (which is to say, the Argentine press) insisting that he should start for the selección. Click to continue reading...

Torneo Apertura 2009: Round 5 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 20 September @ 08:35 PM EST
The weekend's clásico was a damp squib, with San Lorenzo and Racing cancelling each other out in Boedo. Earlier on Sunday Newell's beat Lanús to go fifth, whilst on Saturday Chacarita's pointless start to the season continued with a 3-1 defeat to Colón, and Independiente took a point from the champions, Vélez Sársfield.

Torneo Apertura 2009: round 4 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 13 September @ 08:10 PM EST
The clásico del Sur was a happy one for Banfield, who ran out 2-1 winners away to Lanús. The goals came from a Paraguayan and a Uruguayan, which could be the Argentine version of some sort of 'Englishman, Irishman, Scotsman' joke. Estudiantes beat Independiente late on, and in the first half of the final match [. Click to continue reading...

Torneo Apertura 2009: Round 3 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 08 September @ 08:29 PM EST
Tuesday night saw a home win at the Gigante del Arroyito, not that it'll be much consolation for the majority of supporters of the selección. River Plate played ineptly and when Diego Buonanotte gave the ball away in midfield, Rosario Central were able to break and score their second goal in an eventual 2-1 win.

Torneo Apertura 2009: Round 1 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 23 August @ 08:11 PM EST
River Plate began the Apertura as they mean to continue it, conceding a chaotic goal to Banfield after just a minute and looking largely toothless in an attempt to get back into the game. Clausura runners-up Huracán scored a cracker but still lost to Lanús, and Boca were 2-0 down at home to Argentinos at [. Click to continue reading...

Apertura ‘08: Round 19 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 14 December @ 07:54 PM EST
It's not over just yet. The Torneo Apertura proper came to a conclusion this weekend but so far we only know the order of things at one end of the table. Yes that's right, it's official: River Plate are rubbish. The top four all won - in Lanús's case in vain - so the title [...] Click to continue reading...

Apertura ‘08: Round 18 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 07 December @ 11:00 PM EST
Lanús won; Boca drew; Tigre and San Lorenzo were both victorious, and the race for the Torneo Apertura title this year will go to the last weekend, with four teams still involved. River Plate lost in Vélez's stadium to Godoy Cruz, and are two adrift at the bottom. Get the full lowdown from all the [. Click to continue reading...

Apertura ‘08: Round 17 scores and scorers (so far)

Hasta El Gol Siempre 01 December @ 12:00 AM EST
Boca Juniors edge closer to the title but Tigre, after ensuring River Plate remain bottom, are still right on their heels. Gimnasia La Plata climbed to the top of the Promedio relegation zone and dragged Colón towards it, should the sides below them have a run at some point. The other relegation clash, in Jujuy [.

Apertura ‘08: Round 15 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 16 November @ 08:19 PM EST
Hard to say what was the biggest surprise this weekend: River winning after twelve matches; Argentinos vs. Estudiantes producing a performance (from one side at least); Vélez beating Boca in the Monumental, or the upshot of that score, which means the leadership of the table is now shared between San Lorenzo and Tigre with four [.

Apertura ‘08: Round 14 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 09 November @ 08:50 PM EST
Racing got an away win which will help them immeasurably in the relegation battle; Estudiantes edged out Independiente; both Rosario clubs lost on Friday night, and River were involved in a good match in which it wasn't them who did the throwing away of a good lead, for a change. At the top, San Lorenzo [. Click to continue reading...

Apertura ‘08: Round 13 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 02 November @ 03:00 AM EST
A low-scoring weekend, this one. River Plate fielded a reserve side (the first team have already flown to Mexico to prepare for the Copa Sudamericana quarter-final second leg), lost to Lanús and remain rooted to the bottom of the table; Boca Juniors beat leaders San Lorenzo in the clásico in La Bombonera; Tigre lost, away [.

Apertura ‘08: Round 11 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 26 October @ 06:55 PM EST
The chasing pack all won and the leaders lost this weekend, so the title race is tightening up. At the bottom River struggled - and lost to another set piece goal - in Jujuy and Central lost in La Bombonera, whilst Banfield couldn't follow up last week's win over Racing with a result against Gimnasia La Plata.

Apertura ‘08: Round 10 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 19 October @ 08:15 PM EST
The superclásico wasn't the only match featuring struggling teams on Sunday. Racing visited Banfield and lost out on three points which could well prove crucial in El Sur, whilst the clash between Central and Gimnasia La Plata in El Gigante del Arroyito finished in a win for the visitors - meaning River have at least got some company at the [.

Apertura ‘08: Round 8 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 28 September @ 06:57 PM EST
On Friday night, Tigre kept up the pressure on leaders San Lorenzo, who kept their noses in front thanks to a comfortable win over Arsenal the following day. Sunday was clásico day, with River matching Racing blow-for-blow in a supremely entertaining match of six goals before Estudiantes eased past neighbours Gimnasia in the clásico de [.

Apertura ‘08: Round 7 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre 21 September @ 07:18 PM EST
River and Boca both suffered shock defeats on Sunday, San Lorenzo won on Friday to ensure they still top the table tonight regardless, and Vélez, who won well against Central on Saturday, are close behind them. Racing, having seen a three match unbeaten run ended in midweek by Huracán, got back to winnings ways against managerless [. Click to continue reading...
