Mauro Zárate proves his worth with the winner against Boca

Four matches on Saturday and four winners, including two more away wins and a few surprises. Vélez Sarsfield kicked things off against Boca Juniors and thanks to Mauro Zárate’s fifth goal of the season they deservedly and, not so surprisingly, beat Boca. Belgrano‘s visit to face Atletico Rafaela was not easy on paper and even less so after Juan Eluchans smashed Rafaela in front after 3 minutes. However, having not lost their last 7 Primera matches, Belgrano roared back and goals from Lucas Aveldaño and Lucas Pittinari extended that run to 8 and leaves Belgrano 3 points off the pace. A pace which is surprisingly set by Colón, who made it 4 straight wins with a hard fought 1-0 win over Rosario Central. Carlos Luque’s excellent solo effort after half an hour and some determined defending sent Colón to the top of the table. Finally, Argentinos Juniors scored a crucial victory in their relegation battle over Arsenal in La Paternal. Having not won since the opening day, Claudio Borghi’s side were in need of a lift and the influential Leonardo Pisculichi’s brace provided just that. WATCH ALL THE GOALS HERE….
