Independiente brought the victory in the Avellaneda classic to social media and, through its official account, launched several jabs at Racing with posts full of symbolism and direct references to the match. One of the most commented posts was a photo of a family on the field wearing jerseys with the word 'SON', a clear allusion to the historical folklore of 'paternity' between the two clubs. Additionally, the Avellaneda club also shared a message with a photo of Gabriel Ávalos, the goal scorer, with a phrase that did not go unnoticed: 'How well did Independiente do in bringing a top-tier striker like Ávalos. Today Rojo has a national team striker, of high caliber. It was a VERY simple decision.'
