banfield He scored his first victory in the championship by beating at his stadium 2-1 Central Cordoba of Santiago del Estero. Alejandro Cabrera opened the scoring after 3 minutes of the initial stage and Francisco González Metilli equalized after 9 minutes of the complementary stage.
Nine minutes from the end and with a very controversial penalty that referee Fernando Espinoza charged at the request of the VAR, Giuliano Galoppo definitively overturned the marker for the Drill.
It took four minutes of checking to detect the subjection within the area of Matías Di Benedetto to Alejandro Cabrera. The move had gone unnoticed and even in the action immediately following, Urzi missed a goal against Toselli.
But the VAR, in charge of Hernán Mastrángelo in Ezeiza, called the referee Espinoza and after several repetitions, it could be seen how Di Benedetto knocked down Cabrera. Galoppo took charge of the penalty, who converted and decreed the Banfileño triumph.
