Instituto from Córdoba easily defeated Atlanta 2-0 and advanced to the round of 16 of the Copa Argentina, where they will face Lanús. As reported by the Argentine News Agency, 'Gloria' from Alta Córdoba arrived at the Nuevo Monumental stadium in the city of Rafaela after a 0-2 loss to Boca Juniors two weeks ago in the 12th round of the Apertura, where they are 12th in Zone A with 11 points. Meanwhile, 'Bohemio' was coming to Rafaela after a 1-0 loss to Ferro Carril Oeste at home last Saturday in the 7th round of the Primera Nacional, where they are also 12th with 7 units. At the Atlético de Rafaela stadium, Diego Flores's team started the match by conceding a goal against themselves on the 21st minute. Following a cross from the Colombian Jhon Córdoba from the left to the far post, the former Independiente defender Leonel Galeano went up to contest the aerial ball but ended up heading it into his own net, with goalkeeper Francisco Rago unable to do anything to prevent the goal. Towards the end of the match, on the 43rd minute, Instituto sealed the victory with a goal from their star midfielder, Alex Luna.
