Deportivo Madryn Reaches Primera Nacional Final

Deportivo Madryn defeated Deportivo Morón 1-0 this Sunday in the second leg of the Primera Nacional promotion playoff semi-finals for the second spot to the Argentine Primera División. In a match covered by the Noticias Argentinas agency, the only goal of the game was scored by Santiago Postel in the 15th minute of the first half. Meanwhile, in the 7th minute of the second half, Joaquín Livera was sent off, leaving the 'Gallito' with ten players on the field at Estadio Abel Sastre. In this way, the 'Aurinegro' will face Estudiantes de Rio Cuarto in the final with the aim of achieving promotion to the Professional League, after missing their first chance against Gimnasia de Mendoza. Although the first leg ended with a 1-0 victory for the away team, the local side advanced due to a sporting advantage, as they finished the regular phase of the tournament in a higher position. The match began with controversy as the Ethics Tribunal decided to sanction Walter Otta for 30 days due to 'fake news'. In the 15th minute of the first half, Santiago Postel rose high and connected with a header from a cross by Nazareno Solís to put Deportivo Madryn ahead and get closer to the final. The score did not change at halftime, and the 'aurinegro' went into the break with a slight advantage. In the 7th minute of the second half, an unusual incident led to the expulsion of Joaquín Livera in the 'Gallito'. The left-back, while a player was lying on the pitch, struck a hard blow with his elbow against an opponent, and referee Pablo Echavarré decided to show him a red card. Once the final whistle blew that sealed Deportivo Madryn's passage to the final, a massive brawl broke out on the field, and the police had to intervene. The security forces ended up using pepper gas and suppressing the Deportivo Morón players.
