On Monday, home victories for Gimnasia de Jujuy and Atlanta against Midland and Quilmes, respectively, marked the end of the first round of the Primera Nacional. The 'Jujuy Wolf' won 2-1 with a brace from Cristian Menéndez, scoring in the 29th and 34th minutes of the first period, while Juan Cruz Vega pulled one back for the visitors in the 48th minute, but it was not enough. Meanwhile, the 'Bohemian' secured the three points thanks to the agonizing goal by Alejandro Quintana in the 46th minute of the second half. With these results, both teams, part of Group B of the Argentine football Second Division, started the tournament with a win, just like Nueva Chicago, Gimnasia y Tiro de Salta, and Agropecuario in their respective groups. In the match held at the 23 de Agosto stadium in San Salvador de Jujuy, Menéndez showed his class by scoring two goals as a true 'number nine' for the team led by Hernán Pellerano. First, he appeared in the small area and pushed the ball into the back of the net following a pass from Maximiliano Casa.
