Quilmes won for the first time in the 2010 Torneo Apertura on Sunday, beating Godoy Cruz 2-1 in the only game of the day to go over two goals. Vélez Sarsfield went joint top of the league, on thirty points with Estudiantes de La Plata. They did so by beating Lanús 1-0 with a fantastic shot from Ricardo Álvarez.
