Another blow from Tigre: Colidio takes advantage of River's defensive error and scored the 2-1 at the Monumental.

Facundo Colidio surprises once again at the Monumental stadium. The attacker scored the 2-1 for River Plate vs. Tigre in the quarterfinals of the Professional League Cup.

Facundo Colidio surprises once again at the Monumental stadium. The attacker scored the 2-1 for River Plate vs. Tigre in the quarterfinals of the Professional League Cup.

Paulo Díaz's gift and Facundo Colidio's merit: the two key actions for River Plate's 2-1 victory over Tigre in the quarterfinals of the Professional League Cup. The defender made a terrible mistake in the build-up and the forward approached goalkeeper Franco Armani to silence the Monumental stadium for the second time.

Enzo Fernández's great goal put Marcelo Gallardo's team back in the game, who until that moment dominated the actions. In fact, Gallardo's team had the patience and time to build the plays from the back. That's how Héctor Martínez, from the wing, combined with Paulo Díaz in the center.

River Plate's center-back intended to make the pass near the circle, still in his own half. But in front of the River player was Facundo Colidio, who intercepted it. Immediately, the Tigre player made a cut to get past the defender and advanced towards Armani. A few meters from the '1', the forward delicately placed the ball into the near post to make it 1-2.

River Plate vs. Tigre: the preview

River will face Tigre on Wednesday, a team that was promoted this year and has been a revelation in the Liga Cup, despite not having star players and showing a decline in the final stages with three defeats in their last four matches.

River couldn't secure first place, which was held by Racing, who finished the regular stage undefeated, while Marcelo Gallardo's team suffered three setbacks that left them in second place, although their qualification was never at risk.

The red and white team had ups and downs, with the ability to demolish Sarmiento (7-0) and Gimnasia (4-0), but also lost to Talleres (1-0) and drew with Atlético Tucumán (1-1), two teams that were near the bottom of the table.
