The race for the Clausura title is heating up. There is one week left in the season. For many years, Argentinos Juniors stunk the joint out but now they are top dog with 38 points.
Bichos Colorados defeated Independiente 4-3 on Sunday.
Argentinos Juniors scored the match winner in the dying moments of the match.
Matias Caruzzo nailed a close range header to propel Bichos Colorados into first place.
Second place Estudiantes and bottom feeder Rosario Central tied nil-nil. This tie could cost Los Pincharratas the Clausura title. Estudiantes was in first place prior to play on Sunday May 9th.
Los Pincharratas has 37 points.
Godoy Cruz is in third place with 34 points.
River Plate ripped the twines in a 3-0 win over Racing.
Los Millonarios are in 12th place with 22 points.
Boca Juniors lost to Huracan 2-1.
I bet the Los Xeneizos can’t wait until the Clausura is over.
Boca is currently in 15th place.
If Argentinos Juniors can beat Huracan on Sunday May 16th, the title is theirs.
If Bichos Colorados ties and Estudiantes losses the title is Argentinos Juniors, however if Estudiantes wins and Bichos Colorados losses or ties Los Pincharratas is the champ.
Oh yes, this is fun in the sun.
It all comes down to the last week of the season.
