Luís Rodríguez scored his 100th goal for Atlético Tucumán to help El Decano to a 3-1 win over Defensa y Justicia on Saturday afternoon. El Pulga reached the milestone from the penalty spot in first half stoppage time and although Rafael Delgado equalised for the visitors with a sweetly struck free-kick, two second half substitutes ensured the supporters were celebrating a fifth home win. With a man advantage after Damián Martínez’s sending off Guillermo Acosta and Fernando Zampedri both scored to in the second half to send Atlético third in the table.
In Santa Fe, Víctor Malcorra’s powerful finish handed Unión a 1-0 win over Tigre. The visitors had hoped to build on their excellent win over Boca Juniors last week but couldn’t find the vital goal in a game that was decided by the finest of margins.
