Llos Andes secured a 2:1 victory over Deportivo Moron in the Primera Nacional's Regular Season round 31 on Saturday evening, a result that shifts momentum in the mid-table battle. The match, played under floodlights at the home ground, featured two penalty kicks and a late goal that sealed the outcome. By then, the visitors had been reduced to fighting for every inch, though their position in second place remained intact.
Fagundez opened the scoring from the spot in the thirty-fourth minute, sending the home crowd into raptures. Moron responded through Asenjo, who converted his own penalty in the seventy-sixth minute, leveling proceedings. Tisera then snatched the winner in stoppage time, a moment that changed everything. The game had been evenly balanced until those decisive strikes.
There were five yellow cards distributed across the ninety minutes, with Moron collecting three and the hosts two. Substitutions came thick and fast in the second half, with eight changes between the sixty-third and eighty-sixth minutes. The coaches were clearly looking for solutions, though the flow of the match had already been set by the penalty decisions.
Statistics tell a different story from the final score. Llos Andes registered 131 attacks compared to Moron's 122, while possession was split roughly fifty-fifty at 52-48. The hosts managed three shots on target against the visitors' one, and corners were 3-2 in their favour. One mistake ends it, and the penalty area proved decisive.
The result moves Llos Andes further from the relegation zone, while Moron maintains their second-place standing despite the loss. The hosts sit ninth with forty points from thirty-one games, while the visitors hold fifty-five points. We had tipped a draw with modest confidence, but this match had other ideas.
Recent form suggests neither side was in peak condition, with Llos Andes drawing three of their last five and Moron losing two of their previous six. This victory gives the home side something to build on, while the visitors will need to regroup quickly. The old head settled them down in the final minutes, as experience told.
