Argentinos Jrs: Latest Matches, Stats & xG

2:0

River Plate held the ball just 42% of the time but comfortably outscored the opponent on expected goals (xG), 1.58 against 0.70 for Argentinos Juniors. The eventual 2:0 came from a Montiel goal in the 37th minute and a stoppage-time Correa penalty in the 89th. The match anomaly score here is low: per the Bravsen model, a result like this at that quality-of-chances gap shows up in roughly 32% of comparable matches — the scoreline is not a paradox, it's the direct consequence of which side struck more often from the better positions.

3:0

Did Argentinos JRS actually have to work for this, or did Estudiantes de Rio Cuarto simply hand them ninety minutes to fill however they liked?

2:3

Sarmiento led this match, then trailed it, then drew level with it, and still lost. A result with that many swings usually comes down to one stretch of play rather than the full ninety minutes, and here it was a ten-minute burst early in the second half that Argentinos Juniors used to turn a losing position into a winning one, before a stoppage-time strike from the bench settled the rest of the argument.
