Thanks for joining us! Stay tuned to VAVEL.com to keep up to date with the world of sport.

With 15 minutes to go, there was no way River could get an equalizer. Pablo Solari's goal, which in the end ended up being given as an own goal, gave Martín Demichelis' team some extra air, which kept looking for the rival goal and found its reward with an ace up the coach's sleeve. Rodrigo Aliendro ended up being the hero of the night, to give the 'millonario' a new title in an agonizing way.

EEEEEEND! END OF THE MATCH! END OF THE GAME! RIVER! RIVER! RIVER IS SUPER CHAMPION OF ARGENTINA!

GOOOOOLAZO! GOOOOOLAZOOOO FOR RIVER! RODRIGO ALIENDRO! TREMENDOUS MID-RANGE SHOT! A BOMB THAT GOES INTO THE LEFT CORNER OF THE LEFT POST! 2-1. Demichelis' change came off.

Five more minutes will be played in the match.

Free kick for Estudiantes. Edwuin Cetré made it in front of Santiago Simón's mark.

Last substitution in River. Rodrigo Aliendro replaces Facundo Colidio.

River's Rodrigo Villagra was cautioned for a foul in the middle of the pitch. Some breathing space for Estudiantes now.

River wins all the rebounds and constantly presses against Estudiantes' attempts to get the ball back, who do not recover the ball, but only rejects it.

River is encouraged and with a new air wants to occupy more spaces in the opponent's field. Estudiantes has stuck to its original plan after the goal it had scored in the first half.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOL for River! Pablo Solari! The striker was looking for a shot to the center and a rival deflected to displace the goalkeeper Mansilla. 1-1.

Substitution at Estudiantes. Santiago Flores replaces Enzo Pérez.

Enzo Díaz comes in for Milton Casco. Demichelis is looking to have someone with a natural profile on that flank.

RIVER HAD IT! Claudio Echeverri's great shot in the vicinity of the area and the goalkeeper saved Estudiantes again. He is the star of the match up to this point.

Half an hour of play in the second half. River cannot find the equalizer and still needs to activate its offensive players.

ESTUDIANTES HAD A CHANCE! Guido Carrillo's shot went just wide of the left post.

Fernando Zuqui was cautioned in Estudiantes for a foul on Miguel Borja.

River is now making two changes. Rodrigo Villagra and Claudio Echeverri will replace Matías Kranevitter and Nacho Fernández.

Double change in Estudiantes. Tiago Palacios and Guido Carrillo replace Javier Correa.

The minutes are slowly passing and River is lowering the intensity with which it started the second half. Martín Demichelis will look for variations.

First quarter of an hour in the second half. For now, River cannot find the equalizer; Estudiantes, with very little, manages to hold on to the win.

There is a change in Estudiantes. Fernando Zuqui replaces Javier Altamirano.

Miguel Borja tried to score with a scissors kick after a cross from the right.

River came out in the second half to occupy the spaces in the rival's defense and to take advantage of the fact that they have more offensive players.

RIVER HAD A CHANCE! Facundo Colidio had a good shot in the box, but the goalkeeper saved Estudiantes from the equalizer.

The match restarts. There was a change in River with the entry of Santiago Simón in place of Leandro González Pirez.

The first half of the match got off to a great start with Estudiantes' goal. However, with their idea of falling back with the score in their favor, they gave the ball to a River team that has not worked collectively and whose individuals have struggled to take the initiative to recover the soccer memory that has given the team good results so far this semester.

Martín Demichelis' choice of players was poor in the midfield, leaving Kranevitter, who with his loneliness, forces Nacho Fernández to make long runs. He will have to rethink that area and activate more of his offensive players to win in each zone of the last quarter of the field.

The first half of the match ends. Estudiantes partially wins 1-0 against River with Javier Correa's early goal.

Two more minutes will be played in the first half.

River had it! Sebastián Boselli shot inside the area, but the ball went over the goal.

One more card. Leandro González Pirez brought down Edwuin Cetré in the middle of the pitch and gets the first yellow for River.

The second caution of the match was given to Javier Altamirano. The referee listed those he had already accumulated.

Estudiantes have not had many approaches, but when they get close to Armani's goal, there is an imminent sensation of danger.

River keeps trying. There are 10 minutes left in the first half, where they will have to find the equalizer.

It was too close and Estudiantes' second goal arrived! Edwuin Cetré's cross shot went just wide of the right post.

Half an hour into the match. River is having a hard time recovering the ball in the midfield. Demichelis' plan has not worked out.

River tried. A quick start on the right flank. Esequiel Barco received on the left and made the pass to Nacho Fernandez who shot a soft and controllable shot for Mansilla.

River tries, unsuccessfully, to hurt the rival through the flanks. Demichelis' team finds a little more space.

The match is stopped. Milton Casco (River) and Edwin Cetré (Estudiantes) collided in the pursuit of an aerial ball.

Great save by Mansilla! The goalkeeper stretched after Miguel Borja's low shot following a rebound from a corner kick. It was the equalizer!

RIVER HAD IT! Paulo Díaz's header after Nacho Fernández's shot and the goalkeeper put his hand to send the ball out.

First caution of the match. José Sosa was cautioned for Estudiantes for a strong foul on Nacho Fernández.

ESTUDIANTES HAD IT! Javier Correa's powerful shot forced Franco Armani to keep his hands out.

Primer cuarto de hora. Martín Demichelis se paró ya del banquillo a dar indicaciones. No le gusta nada lo que está viendo ahora en estos 15 minutos.

Estudiantes passed the ball over the line. With the early goal, it is much easier to fulfill their plan of waiting a little longer for River. Facundo Colidio is the man who has tried to trouble Demichelis' team's attack on the left flank.

River does not feel very comfortable at the beginning of the match. Edwuin Cetré looks like the most worrying man in Estudiantes' attack.

For now, River is trying to take control of the ball, but lacks clarity in passing the midfield.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL for Estudiantes! JAVIER CORREA! The striker scores with a header after a beautiful cross from Edwuin Cetré and quickly puts the first of the match, in the first action of danger. 1-0.

The match between River and Estudiantes gets underway. The Argentine Supercup 2024 is already being played.

In Estudiantes de La Plata, the presence of Mauro Méndez stands out. The 25-year-old Uruguayan player is one of the most outstanding players so far this season, where he has scored three goals and one assist in eight games, in which he has played five as a starter, totaling 411 minutes in all.

In River Plate, the presence of Miguel Borja stands out. The 31-year-old Colombian player is the team's top scorer in the current season so far with 10 celebrations, which he has achieved in nine matches, eight of which he has played as a starter. He has a total of 658 minutes.

There is no record of these two teams meeting head to head for a title. However, the history of confrontations is in favor of River Plate, which has shown superiority over Estudiantes de La Plata. There are 98 wins for the 'millonario' over 41 for the 'pincha' and 43 draws.

Estudiantes de La Plata has had a very complex last week to deal with, due to the defeats suffered against Platense and Sarmiento. Despite these defeats, they enjoy being in a good position in their group, which allows them not to have so many worries about how to face the rest of the competition and to be able to concentrate fully on this match.

The champions of the most recent Copa Argentina have added new training sessions, thinking about how to counteract the offensive power of their rival and how to take advantage of their virtues to put them in trouble. It will be a key match for the team coached by Eduardo Domínguez, who are looking for a new impulse to try to continue on the path of triumph and glory.

River Plate arrives to this supercopa match with a great present, as a result of the good performance it has been showing in the league. Although they drew in their most recent match against Independiente, Martín Demichelis' team has gained a lot of confidence with the passing of the matches.

However, they must be very alert because they have the same number of points as four other rivals, so any slip-up could leave them empty-handed. In the meantime, the team has been preparing for this match, a new opportunity to add a trophy to its trophy cabinet, something to which it has become accustomed in recent years.

This will be the second Argentine Super Cup final that this stadium will host. In 2015, it was Boca and San Lorenzo who had the opportunity to fight for the title, with the winner being the cyclone, with an overwhelming 4-0 victory over the xeneize team.

The River Plate vs Estudiantes de La Plata match will be played at the Mario Alberto Kempes Stadium, located in the Parque Chateau Carreras neighborhood in the city of Cordoba, Argentina. This stadium, inaugurated in 1978, has a capacity for 57,000 spectators.

This stadium is sometimes used by Talleres de Córdoba to host matches of great importance. It has hosted tournaments of great importance such as the 1978 World Cup, the Copa America in the 1987 and 2011 editions, as well as several local tournament finals, either first division or the Argentine Cup, and continental competitions such as the South American Cup in the 2020 and 2022 editions.
