After a 15-minute break, the two sides changed sides and fought again. Mario Binco changed one person first, replacing shadow forward Espinosa and replacing him with substitute forward Dalia for rotation.
The season is coming to an end, and the Argentine Cup semi-finals are about to begin again. We must plan ahead to get through the semi-finals and advance to the final.
In the second half of the game, the two sides still fought fiercely. Tandil had no choice but to attack after falling two goals behind. As for the Hurricanes Athletic Team, they have confidence in Velarde, and the midfield and frontcourt offensive players can attack with confidence and boldness.
In this case, the midfielder naturally became the focus of competition between the two sides, and the ball changed hands very quickly. As for Velarde, even if Tandil's players don't want to face him, they are sometimes forced to have no choice but to dribble or pass the ball into the gaps around Velarde. Velarde will even better adapt to the situation. Move your position or grab it yourself.
In just 20 minutes of the second half, Willard contributed 2 steals and 3 clearances, astonishing the commentators:
"It's amazing!"
"Villade's defensive ability is absolutely outstanding in the second division. Tandil's four forwards and three midfielders are insurmountable."
"The true truth is that one man can stand the test and ten thousand men can't stop him."
"One person is worth two or three people."
"The Hurricanes are so lucky to have cultivated such an excellent defensive talent from their own youth academy."
"good."
The commentators were saying that in the 67th minute, Tandil defender Herminio Canberra was holding the ball and was pressed by Avila in the frontcourt. His teammates were also approached by Dalia, so Canberra did not dare to pass the ball to the back line. The teammate who came up directly drove the ball to the midfield with a big kick.
As a result, the ball landed right near Velarde. Velarde and Tandil center Miguel Alba rushed towards the ball landing point. In the end, Velarde ran to the position first, jumped up and headed the ball to the ball. Teammate Gonzano Martinez.
"Ah, here we go again!"
"Villade once again succeeded in the aerial challenge and helped Hurricanes get the ball."
"Gonzano Martinez got the ball, adjusted, turned and started attacking."
"Whether it's steals, clearances or aerial battles, Willard's statistics are unparalleled and hard to match."
"This is why Willard, as a defensive midfielder, is often elected as the best player in the game."
"His performance was really outstanding."
"Huh? Gonzano Martinez suddenly made a long pass, avoiding interceptions by multiple players in a row, and sent the ball directly to Avila in the gap in the front court!"
"good chance!"
As the commentators said, this is indeed a good opportunity. Gonzano Martinez performed exceptionally this time and showed the strength of a top midfielder. After discovering the opportunity to pass the long pass during the march, he did not hesitate to He hesitated and decisively made a long pass of more than 30 meters, and directly inserted the ball from the midfield to Avila's feet in the gap at the front of the penalty area.
Just now, Herminio Canberra drove the ball into the frontcourt, and Tandil's players were rushing forward, preparing to participate in the attack!
The ball was pushed down by Velarde and fell to the feet of Gonzano Martinez. It was also in the Hurricanes' half. Therefore, Tandil's midfielder did not return to defense in time, resulting in a gap between the midfielder and the defender. A huge gap appeared, which was discovered by Avila and Martinez at the same time.
Then, Gonzano Martinez made a decisive long pass. Avila ran into position and caught the ball in an instant, posing a threat.
Avila dribbled the ball towards Tandil's penalty area. Herminio Canberra, the defender closest to him, quickly retreated and blocked Avila's progress, waiting for his teammates to encircle and attack.
But when another defender Martorelli was in place to help defend, and was about to steal Avila with Canberra, Avila decisively passed the ball and lifted the ball to a low half-high height. From Marl The pass passed through the gap between Torelli and Herminio Canberra and was sent to the penalty spot in the penalty area.
Martorelli and Canberra stretched out their feet at the same time to try to steal the ball, but the ball was in the air. The two did not make the correct judgment. Not only did they fail to kick the ball, but their feet kicked each other together, causing them to lose their center of gravity and stagger down.
Another forward of the Hurricanes, Dalia, who had just come on as a substitute, had already taken advantage of his abundant physical fitness just after he came on the field. He rushed past Martorelli like the wind, rushed into the penalty area, and beat the attacking goalkeeper. Eric Olivero took a shot without stopping the ball and knocked it out.
Eric Olivero saw that he could not touch the ball first, so he spread his hands and feet to try to expand the defensive area, trying to block Dalia's goal. Unexpectedly, Dalia's shot hit a ground ball, rolled right through the gap between his legs, and rolled against the turf into the goal behind him.
"The ball is in!"
"Dalia!"
"Hurricanes' winger Dalia, who came on as a second-half substitute, took a pass from Avila and flicked the ball between the legs of goalkeeper Eric Olivero, rolling it into the goal without any doubt. .”
"Hurricane Athletics expanded the score to 3-0 and completely sealed the victory."
"Three goals behind, Tandil won't have any chance."

This goal not only gave the Hurricanes a three-goal lead, sealing the victory with a big score, but it is also very likely that the Hurricanes will surpass the points when they win this game and tie the points with their rival Santa Fe United. The opponent's goal difference returns them to first place in the standings.
Therefore, it is of great significance, and it is no wonder that even the coaches are extremely excited.
The Hurricanes fans in the stands and in front of the TV were even more ecstatic, shouting, roaring, and screaming in celebration, and cheered for Dalia, who scored the goal, and Avila, who provided the assist, and Vera, who had successfully competed for the top spot.

3-0, this game is already stable. Atletico Hurricanes has not been opened up by Santa Fe United, and it is possible to overtake the ranking and return to first place because of winning more goal difference in this round.
How can such a game and victory not be exciting?
After completely sealing the victory, head coach Mario Binco was relieved and made the second substitution in the 72nd minute, replacing Mancinelli with Federico Bismara; in the 80th minute The third substitution was made at the minute, with Lucas Villaruel replacing Gonzano Martinez.
Three substitutions were used up, but the visiting team Tandil still failed to score. Not only that, the Hurricanes, who had changed three people in a row, also made a pass in the 91st minute before the end of the game from the left wing by Giman Mandalino.

As long as the Hurricanes can hold on and take first place in Group B, they really have a high probability of directly winning the A-B championship.
The only difficulty is that other teams do not have the interference of the Argentina Cup, and Atletico Hurricanes still have to play in the Argentine Cup semi-finals, and their opponents are still the A-League teams. If you pass the semi-finals, you will have to play the finals.
