The match between San Martín (SJ) and Instituto concluded with a scoreless draw, as both teams failed to find the back of the net in their 11th round clash of the Clausura.
One of the standout moments came in the 82nd minute when Luciano Recalde unleashed a fantastic shot that rattled the post, but unfortunately for his side, it did not result in a goal.
Recalde was instrumental throughout the match, particularly noted for clearing four dangerous balls from his area. Meanwhile, Juan Ignacio Méndez from Instituto also made a significant impact, completing 17 successful passes and recovering possession three times.
San Martín’s head coach, Leandro Romagnoli, opted for a 4-3-3 formation, deploying Matías Borgogno in goal, with a defense comprising Ayrton Portillo, Tomás Lecanda, Luciano Recalde, and Lucas Diarte. The midfield consisted of Diego González, Nicolás Watson, and Sebastián González, while Marco Iacobellis, Horacio Tijanovich, and Ignacio Maestro Puch led the attack.
On the other side, Instituto’s manager Daniel Oldrá arranged his team in a 5-4-1 formation, featuring Manuel Roffo in goal, protected by Emanuel Beltrán, Leonel Mosevich, Fernando Alarcón, Nicolás Zalazar, and Lucas Rodríguez in defense. The midfield was manned by Jonás Acevedo, Gastón Lodico, Juan Ignacio Méndez, and Alex Luna, with Luca Klimowicz serving as the lone striker.
The match was officiated by referee Sebastián Martínez.
