So pretty bad that he’s banned himself from the final game, by timewasting at 2-0 up with seconds to go! Inexplicable, there was no way Velez were gonna get back into the game at that stage.

Still, Lanus should have too much for San Martin. I hope they win, as much for helping Racing and GELP in the relegation stakes as for the fact that, notwithstanding all the love for Tigre in these pages, I’d rather like Lanus to win the title again, cause I do enjoy their easy on the eye style. They weren’t great tonight, but they have been recently, and deserve a reward. Especially as the side will probably break up in January : (
