River got the tie cheap
The match took place in two very different facets. During the first half, the visiting team exhibited absolute dominance in the midfield and great effectiveness in attack, which allowed them to obtain a well-deserved two-goal advantage. In contrast, Talleres performed well below expectations, failing to generate danger for the goal defended by Armani.
However, the dynamics of the game changed noticeably in the second half. Talleres demonstrated a significant change in attitude compared to the first 45 minutes, while River entered the field of play with a more relaxed attitude. The home team came out with determination in search of a tie, while River seemed less focused on expanding their lead. As time progressed, Talleres gained ground and generated scoring opportunities, which finally allowed them to tie the score at 2-2.
