Arsenal come from behind to win and Veléz grab late victory (VIDEO)

As expected Arsenal de Sarandí were the only Primera club to honour the death of AFA President Julio Grondona prior to kickoff but their comeback against a talented, young Estudiantes side was a little surprising. Guido Carrillo stabbed Estudiantes in front after 36 minutes following some woeful defending from the home side and the 23-year-old striker will be hoping to add to his burgeoning goal tally. However, a minute later, Estudiantes gifted Arsenal an equaliser with similarly lapse defending and Emilio Zelaya poked in. The second half was poor but with 5 minutes remaining, Ramiro Carrera sent a looping header into the far corner and gave Arsenal all 3 points. Later, in Victoria, Veléz Sarsfield snatched a late win over Tigre despite being down to 10 men after Jorge Correa was sent off. New signing, Milton Caraglio’s 88th minute lob was enough to win what was a rather dull affair.

Arsenal de Sarandí  2 – 1  Estudiantes

Tigre  0 – 1  Veléz Sarsfield
