Manuel Lanzini scored the only goal as Vélez Sarsfield beat Instituto Córdoba 1-0 in the Superliga, a result that extends their winning run without setting up a specific next fixture. It was a match of stark contrasts, where the scoreline flattered the home side considerably.

Instituto had already seen Matías Gallardo booked early on and Fernando Alarcón cautioned in the same minute as the goal, while Vélez's Claudio Baeza and Thiago Silveor were later yellow-carded in a scrappy second half that produced no further goals.
