ซาน ลอเรนโซ vs Defensa y Justicia

Defensa y Justicia demolished San Lorenzo 5-2 at the Nuevo Gasómetro in a stunning matchday 11 clash in the Torneo Apertura. Former Ciclón academy product Elías Pereyra haunted his old club by striking inside the opening minute, and Juan Gutiérrez made it two just before half-time. The second half descended into chaos. Aaron Molinas converted a penalty on 64 minutes before debutant Rodrigo Auzmendi pulled one back with a header moments later. San Lorenzo were reduced to ten when Agustín Ladstatter saw red for a reckless challenge, and Alexis Cuello's spot-kick was then saved by Cristopher Fiermarin. Agustín Hausch and David Barbona completed the rout late on, though Auzmendi did nod in a second consolation. The win lifts Defensa y Justicia to third in Zone A on 16 points with their unbeaten run intact. San Lorenzo remain on 13 and slip outside the last-16 qualifying places — now four games without a victory.
