Matchday 15 APERTURA

Talleres doubled their advantage in the 25th minute. Augusto Schott found the net after being set up by Matías Catalán, putting the home team 2–0 up and firmly in control before the half-hour mark. Riestra’s frustration showed shortly after, with Alejo Duarte booked in the 23rd minute, while Rick saw yellow for Talleres on the half-hour.

Riestra head coach turned to his bench at the interval, introducing Gabriel Obredor and Antony Alonso for Matías García and Duarte at the start of the second half in an attempt to change the dynamic. They later brought on Jonathan Herrera and Rodrigo Gallo, but the visitors could not find a route back into the match.

Talleres managed the game well after the break, even as Schott picked up a yellow card on 54 minutes. Both sides continued to adjust, with Mateo Cáceres replaced by Juan Sforza for the hosts on 63 minutes, followed by a triple change on 71 minutes involving Augusto Schott, Diego Valoyes and Franco Cristaldo, who made way for Valentín Dávila, Alex Vigo and Valentín Depietri.

Gonzalo Flores received Riestra’s second booking on 62 minutes, underscoring the visitors’ increasingly physical approach in search of a lifeline.

With no further goals after the interval, Talleres comfortably protected their early lead to secure a 2–0 win over CD Riestra. Beyond the listed goals, bookings and substitutions, detailed statistical data and minute-by-minute events were not available at the time of writing.
