Almirante Brown and Ferro Carril Oeste played out a 0-0 draw in the Regular Season, stage 29 of Argentina's Primera Nacional. The match took place on 13 September 2026 at 18:30, and neither side could find a breakthrough despite creating enough to suggest one might come. By then, both teams had already played 29 games, with the hosts sitting fifth and the visitors second in the table.
F. Tevez picked up a red card in the 18th minute, reducing Almirante Brown to ten men for most of the encounter. The hosts responded with N. Gomez coming on for a substitution in the 24th minute. Three yellow cards were shown in total — G. Alegre Rojas and E. Cardozo for the hosts, none for the visitors.
Substitutions came thick and fast after the break. M. Abreliano replaced Tevez immediately after the red card. Then came pairs at 57, 68, 81, and finally L. Jara in the 77th minute for the visitors. The game had a scrappy quality to it, with neither side willing to take risks.
Almirante Brown held 58 per cent possession but managed only two shots on target from five off target. Ferro Carril Oeste had the reverse — 42 per cent possession, one shot on target, three off. Both teams registered three corners and similar attack counts, 92 and 93 respectively. The statistics tell you what you already knew: chances were sparse.
The result keeps Ferro Carril Oeste in second place on 55 points, four ahead of Almirante Brown who sit fifth with 46. Neither side moved significantly in the standings, and the gap between them remains untouched. Both teams have now drawn two of their last five matches, including this one.
We had backed the hosts for victory, confidence sitting at 47 per cent. The prediction didn't come off, and the red card in the first quarter changed the shape of the game. It's hard to break down a side playing deep with ten men, and the visitors never looked likely to fall apart.
