Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Rodrigo Auzmendi’s 64th-minute strike earned San Lorenzo a 1-0 Superliga win over Unión, with the match decided by a single moment of quality despite the visitors’ stubborn resistance. The result keeps San Lorenzo’s momentum rolling, though the narrow margin flattered a contest that was far from one-sided.

The game turned on the hour mark when Auzmendi, already booked in first-half stoppage time, found the net to break Unión’s resolve. The visitors had soaked up pressure early, with Lucas Menossi and Maizon Rodriguez both cautioned in a scrappy opening, while Juan Pablo Luduena and Emilio Giaccone picked up yellows as they chased the game. A late VAR check at 87 minutes briefly delayed the celebrations, but the goal stood, leaving Unión with nothing to show for their disciplined effort.

On the numbers, San Lorenzo controlled the flow with 54% possession and 14 shots to Unión’s six, though their xG of 1.08 against 0.19 tells a tale of dominance without ruthlessness. The first half was particularly one-sided, with the hosts racking up eight attempts and 59% of the ball, yet the second saw Unión level the possession count at 50-50, suggesting they grew into the contest. Matías Mansilla, the Unión goalkeeper, was the standout with a 9.1 rating, his heroics keeping the scoreline respectable, though even he could not prevent the decisive goal. San Lorenzo deserved the win on efficiency, but the margin was tighter than the stats suggest.
