Deportivo Muñiz — Juventud Unida, Primera C

Juventud Unida took all three points at Deportivo Municipal in the Regular Season-24 clash of the Primera C, closing out a 0:1 victory on the strength of a stoppage-time strike. The visitors held firm after a red card changed the complexion of the encounter, and F. Cardozo made sure of the result when the clock ticked past 90+5.

By then, the game had already been tilted. L. Brandan saw red in the forty-fifth minute and Municipal were left chasing shadows for the final forty-five minutes. They pushed, they pressed, but the visitors held their shape.

And here's the thing about playing with ten men: you start worrying about survival before you think about scoring. Cardozo's goal arrived when the home side had thrown everything at it, a single moment that told the whole story.

The numbers back up what happened on the pitch. Municipal enjoyed 43 per cent possession and registered 91 attacks, but only managed two shots on target. Juventud Unida had the ball more, 57 per cent, and converted one of their four attempts.

The result leaves Juventud Unida fifth with 38 points, while Deportivo Municipal sit fourteenth on 22 after 26 games. It's a gap that shows what consistency looks like over a season.
