CA San Lorenzo de Almagro 0:2 CA Huracán — Informe del Partido

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Jordy Caicedo scored twice as Huracán beat San Lorenzo 2-0 in the Superliga, the forward’s brace settling a contest that never truly caught fire. San Lorenzo, playing at home, huffed and puffed with more of the ball but rarely threatened, while Huracán struck decisively on the counter.

The opener arrived on the stroke of half-time, Caicedo finishing unassisted to give the visitors a lead they deserved. He doubled it in the 57th minute, this time Facundo Kalinger providing the assist, and although Caicedo picked up a yellow in the same passage, the game’s real blow came on 62 minutes when San Lorenzo’s Orlando Gil saw red. A VAR check at the hour mark had already hinted at trouble for the hosts, and from then on their task grew increasingly hopeless.

The numbers tell a blunt story: Huracán had 14 shots to San Lorenzo’s five, an expected goals tally of 1.22 against 0.39, and four corners to one, despite the hosts enjoying 54 per cent possession. Huracán were the better side in the first half with nine shots and an xG of 0.96, and though the second half was tighter, they never lost control. Caicedo was the standout with a rating of 8.2, his two goals from the forward position deciding the contest.
