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 [...]
At the time of writing, TN haven't got round to putting this week's Show de Goles onto their blog
yet, so instead, I'm embedding it directly into this page. Read on to see the goals, and the normal
running order, as well as a couple of links to the TN videos of goals from the [...]
The penultimate weekend of the Torneo Apertura 2008 might see the title race decided, but it's
unlikely. Lanús get things going away to Vélez; win and they'll crank up the pressure on
the sides above them. The other contenders all play on Sunday. If Boca win away to Gimnasia La
Plata, and Tigre (away to [.
To start the ball rolling for the next edition of the Copa Libertadores de América, the
Confederación Sudamericana de Fútbol (CONMEBOL) have released their latest all-time
league table of the best teams since the competition began. And thus, 2009 can end on a happier
note for River Plate fans of a slightly idiotic bent.
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 [.
After Lanús had kept themselves in with a slim hope of the title on Friday night with a 2-0
win away to Vélez (their first win away to the Liniers side in 49 years), the focus
shifted to the relegation battle on Saturday afternoon as Racing took on Gimnasia de Jujuy. A win
would take the [...]
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 [.
The Torneo Apertura 2008 ends this weekend, and whatever happens now, it's been a good one. All of
the matches featuring title contenders - and also, for some reason, Independiente vs. Arsenal - are
taking place at the same time on Sunday. Friday sees a key relegation clash in Rosario, whilst the
meaningless matches are [.
The destination of the 2008 Torneo Apertura title probably won't be decided today - that would
require only one of the top three to win - but those who aren't able to watch any of the matches
can follow it here. I won't be doing live match reports (if you're wondering why, you try watching
[...]
Boca Juniors, San Lorenzo and - who'd have thunk it? - Tigre will have to play a three-team playoff
to decide the 2008 Primera A Torneo Apertura title, after all three won their last matches of the
campaign on Sunday to finish on 39 points. Lanús, who beat San Martín de Tucumán,
are out of [...]
The goals from the nineteenth round of the Torneo Apertura aren't being put on the TN website this
week, because they're going on the assumption that all you want to see is the goals from the
matches involving the 'finalists'. If you'd like to see all the goals, you'll have to do so right
here, [...]
The four - yes, four - matches involving championship contenders on the final weekend of the Torneo
Apertura 2008 will all be played simultaneously, on Sunday afternoon. The AFA announced on Tuesday
that the games would kick off at 5:20pm, bringing them forward almost two hours for security
reasons. It'll be an interesting afternoon for [.
El presente se podría convertir en uno de los torneos más emocionantes de la historia del
fútbol argentino. Boca, San Lorenzo y Tigre, que llegaban empatados a la última jornada,
consiguieron resolver sus encuentros y terminaron el campeonato con 39 puntos. Como es norma en
Argentina, tendrá lugar un desempate, que, en este caso, al [.
