River Plate Draws 0-0 with Deportivo Riestra

The match between Deportivo Riestra and River Plate corresponding to the tenth date of the Apertura Tournament of the Professional Football League ended in a 0-0 draw at the Estadio Guillermo Laza, located in Bajo Flores. Both teams failed to capitalize on clear scoring opportunities, and the match proved boring for the spectators.

In River Plate's lineup, players such as Franco Armani, Gonzalo Montiel, Enzo Pérez, and Facundo Colidio stood out. However, at the 24th minute, Colidio left injured, making way for the young Ian Subiabre. Despite attempts by River, such as a chance for Miguel Borja that was stopped by the local goalkeeper Ignacio Arce, the team could not open the scoring.

In the second half, Deportivo Riestra managed to contain River Plate's advances, and the game became stagnant with few emotions. Both teams made changes to their lineups in search of greater attacking effectiveness. After the match, it was confirmed that River will face Club Ciudad de Bolívar in the Argentine Cup and will then visit Vélez Sarsfield in the next round of the Apertura Tournament.

With this result, River Plate remains among the top positions in its group in the local tournament. Although they did not achieve the victory that would have temporarily allowed them to take the lead, the team coached by Marcelo Gallardo is preparing for upcoming matches in both competitions.
