CA Sarmiento 2:0 CA Huracán — Informe del Partido

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Sarmiento beat Huracán 2-0 in the Superliga, with Mauricio Martínez the standout performer, though the result leaves them looking towards an uncertain road ahead. Junior Marabel opened the scoring in the 30th minute and Lucas Suárez sealed it late, but the match was defined by a grinding, disciplined display rather than flowing football.

The turning point arrived on 66 minutes when Jordy Caicedo was sent off for Huracán, reducing the visitors to ten men after a scrappy first half that had seen yellow cards for Rodrigo Fernández and Oscar Cortés. Sarmiento had already taken the lead through Marabel, and the red card allowed them to control the closing stages, with Suárez adding the second in the 86th minute after a VAR check in the 39th minute went their way.

Huracán controlled possession with 68% and had an xG of just 0.16, while Sarmiento took 17 shots and earned 9 corners, dominating the second half with 11 of those efforts. Mauricio Martínez earned a 7.5 rating as the standout midfielder, anchoring the midfield without scoring. CheckLive's model clearly favoured Huracán, but the result went the other way, and the live signals offered no correction to that misread.
