For the second time this weekend a home side were followed off the pitch by insults from their fans on Sunday night. River returned to the Monumental and could only draw with Belgrano, after looking for a long while they weren’t going to manage even that. The big smiles of the week, though, belong to Gimnasia, who thrashed Independiente 4-1, Sergio Leal (pictured) scoring the final goal. And if they’ve been well beaten by Gimnasia, Independiente really are struggling. Read on for the full results rundown.
