Miramar Misiones continued to apply pressure, with Axel Pandiani extending the lead at the 31st minute, followed by a header from Jorge Ayala right before halftime, solidifying the score to 3-0.
In the second half, Plaza Colonia managed to secure a consolation goal through Álvaro López in the 80th minute, but it was too little, too late to mount a comeback.
Jorge Ayala was undoubtedly the standout player, contributing significantly to Miramar Misiones’ success with his goal. Axel Pandiani also had an impressive performance, adding another goal to his tally.
