Beracatagi secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Central Córdoba in the Primera C Regular Season on 4 August. The result came in round 20 of the competition, played at the home ground. T. Benitez found the net in the 70th minute to separate the sides. It was enough to move the hosts clear of their visitors in the table.
Central Córdoba started brighter, registering six corners to Beracatagi's three. They pushed forward with purpose, but couldn't test the goalkeeper properly. Beracatagi held firm at the back and waited for their moment. And here's the thing — they only needed one chance to make it count.
The goal changed everything, even if the statistics barely shifted. Beracatagi kept 55 per cent possession and managed three shots on target. Central Córdoba had none. By then the visitors were chasing the game, and the opening they needed never materialised.
On the table the gap between them remains tight. Beracatagi sit third with 41 points from 27 games, while Central Córdoba are fifth on 39. Both sides have won 10 matches, but the hosts have taken two more points from draws. To be fair, this win extends their unbeaten run beyond what recent results suggested.
Central Córdoba's recent form had been encouraging — three wins in their last five — but this outing offered little to build on. Beracatagi, meanwhile, showed the patience they've lacked at times. The result means they're two points clear with games to come.
