Nacional vs Boston River

Nacional couldn't hold onto an early lead at home, falling 1-2 to Boston River in a result that summed up a miserable campaign for the tricolores. The hosts started brightly and looked set for a comfortable afternoon, but their control evaporated after the break. Rubén Botta put Nacional ahead around the 50th minute, but the lead lasted barely six minutes before Maximiliano Silvera turned into his own net to level things. Facundo Muñoa then completed the turnaround in the 64th minute, sealing it for the visitors. Tempers boiled over after the final whistle, with Camilo Cándido, Juan Acosta and Gastón Ramírez all sent off following a scuffle sparked by a confrontation involving Lucas Rodríguez. For Nacional, missing suspended forward Maximiliano Gómez, it was another blow in a season already marked by a lost Apertura and early continental exits. For Boston River, arriving unbeaten in seven, the win was a much-needed step away from relegation trouble.
