In a closely contested affair between CA Nueva Chicago and Gimnasia y Esgrima de Jujuy, the match's outcome was swayed significantly by the host's ability to capitalize on their only goal-scoring opportunity. Despite both teams struggling to break a defensive deadlock, Nueva Chicago managed to edge ahead with a solitary goal in the second half, securing a narrow victory. The home team's disciplined defensive setup, alongside their aggressive press, forced the visitors into numerous errors, precisely highlighted by their higher offsides count.

Aggressive play from CA Nueva Chicago was evident as they committed a staggering 26 fouls, compared to Gimnasia's 7. This high foul count, combined with four yellow cards, indicates a strategy focused on breaking down the away team's attack rhythm, which successfully limited Gimnasia's goal-scoring opportunities. On the other hand, while Nueva Chicago's aggressive strategy was risky, it paid dividends as Jujuy failed to translate their possession into effective goal attempts.

Interestingly, both teams could not make effective use of set pieces, as shown by the equal number of corner kicks. Gimnasia's inability to make headway through their corners or capitalize on rare open play opportunities was evident. Nueva Chicago, while disciplined defensively, will have to assess their performance critically, particularly concerning high foul play that could be costly against more clinical opponents. Nonetheless, this resilient performance underlined their tactical astuteness and will be seen as a vital three points gained in the competition.
