The match between Estudiantes La Plata and CA River Plate BA was a tightly contested affair, with River Plate emerging victorious with a 2-1 win. The early goals from River Plate were pivotal, as they set the tone with their clinical finishing in the opening ten minutes. Estudiantes’ defense was caught off guard early; this lack of early defensive organization had a profound impact on the game's outcome. River Plate took advantage, capitalizing on their chances with high precision.

From an attacking perspective, Estudiantes struggled to convert their scoring opportunities, indicated by their comparable number of corner kicks but fewer successful attacks. Although they managed to pull one goal back in the second half, thanks to improved positioning and strategic play, it was too late to counter River Plate's early two-goal lead. Estudiantes’ inability to respond effectively before halftime left them with too much ground to make up in the latter stages of the match.

Disciplinary actions were notable in the match, predominantly against River Plate, who received three yellow cards, all during the second half. Estudiantes maintained slightly better discipline with two yellow cards, but the number of cards reflects the match's competitive nature. Despite this aggression, the lack of any red cards suggests it was fierce but not excessively dirty. The evenly matched corner and offside statistics show that both teams created pressure, yet River Plate's early decisive actions secured their lead. Overall, the combination of early offensive efficiency and a solid enough defensive display allowed River Plate to manage their way to victory safely.
