Overview

  • On matchday five at the Mario Alberto Kempes, Talleres created clear openings but Matías Borgogno excelled, a Valentín Depietri finish was disallowed, and Guido Herrera blocked Salle late.
  • Carlos Tevez started in a 4-2-1-3 with Depietri as the center forward before switching to a 4-2-3-1 by bringing on Nahuel Bustos.
  • The stalemate leaves Talleres level with Aldosivi in the relegation fight, opening the door to a potential playoff tiebreaker if positions do not change.
  • Tevez said he is pressing president Andrés Fassi to sign a No. 9 and noted Luis Miguel Angulo was left out with a quadriceps issue as 17-year-old Ignacio Alastra debuted.
  • Boos and chants reflected supporter frustration, and defender Augusto Schott called the response understandable while stressing the team pushed to the end.
