Lanús also added three and, despite the fact that the Millionaire is still far away, everyone maintains the dream of being able to continue discounting his advantage.
River lost to Barracas Central but it doesn’t matter: still defeated five dates from the end, when the 22 that is at stake is completed, it will take nine points to Talleres and San Lorenzo, its main pursuers.
The only incidence in the defeat of the Demichelis team is that it postpones the possible early consecration: if he won this weekend and his escorts did not, the Millionaire could shout champion the next date. The alternative was given in the opposite direction, with the T, San Lorenzo and Lanús adding and those of Núñez falling after nine games.
With the tie against Godoy Cruz, the T remains in second place but with 41 points. San Lorenzo, third on goal difference, has the same number of units. It is worth remembering that regardless of who wins the tournament, the teams led by Javier Gandolfi and Ruben Insua also appear above in the annual table, becoming increasingly attached to the three places available for the best of all 2023.

In that second fight “for the cups” Lanús also appears, fourth with 40 points, one less than Ciclón and three more than Estudiantes, which is fifth (with 37) and had to settle for a draw against Central Córdoba as a local .
That is why the date 23 will be attractive. Because in addition to the fact that Talleres, San Lorenzo and Lanús can change positions with just a tie, other results can add competitors for the same squad: Estudiantes’ rival will be Rosario Central, who if they get the three points will surpass Pincha and score in that consolation prize flavored fight.
