River Plate achieved a much-needed win in the Professional League. They beat San Lorenzo 1-0 in a match in which they suffered until the end and recovered after two consecutive losses (against Boca at La Bombonera and against Banfield at the Monumental).
In such an irregular tournament, el Millonario reached 32 points and was four points behind the Gimnasia leader (with one more game). It is also three away from Boca and Atlético Tucumán, who have not yet played on this date and could stretch the difference.
river knows that he has no margin for error, but a winning streak can put him back in contention for the championship. It will be a very difficult mission, but not impossible and what is clear is that you cannot leave more points on the way.
It is a good time to review the games that Marcelo Gallardo’s men have left in the Professional League and start to do accounts about the chances of becoming champion. All will depend on being able to find regularity, something that has not been given to him this semester.
River vs Talleres (September 24 at the Monumental):
Argentinos Juniors vs River Plate (October 2 at Diego Armando Maradona)
River vs. Estudiantes de la Plata (October 5 at the Monumental)
Patronato vs River (October 9 at Presbitero Bartolomé Grella)
River vs Platense (October 12 at the Monumental)
River vs Rosario Central (October 16 at the Monumental)
Racing vs River (October 23 at the Cilindro de Avellaneda)
There are only seven dates left and there are 21 points at stake. The chances are very complicated, but everything will depend on the final stretch of the Millionaire. Will he be able to put together a winning streak that will put him back in the championship? He will have to go game by game, because he is still far from the top.
