Tigre Salvages 2-2 vs. Barracas Central With 90+9' Equalizer Down to Ten

The result heightened scrutiny of officiating after a clear-looking shirt pull on Ignacio Russo went unreviewed despite an earlier VAR intervention.

Overview

  • Barracas went ahead through Jhonatan Candia at 27 minutes after an 18' grab on Ignacio Russo was not reviewed for a potential penalty, and Tigre’s Elías Cabrera was sent off around 35' following VAR.
  • An early second‑half finish by Sebastián Medina was ruled out for offside on Russo, but Ignacio Russo later made it 1-1 at 38' of the second half.
  • Gonzalo Morales restored Barracas’ lead at 39' ST before Medina struck at 90+9' to secure the draw for Tigre.
  • Both teams now have 18 points in Group A, with Barracas sixth on goal difference and Tigre seventh according to the match reports.
  • Barracas is winless in five league matches and will host Boca Juniors next Monday at the Estadio Tapia.
