Huracán defeats San Lorenzo 2-0, causing incidents in the classic match
Huracán won 2-0 at the Nuevo Gasómetro, but a celebration sparked a brawl and an expulsion that complicated the end of the match.
Huracán achieved a 2-0 victory over San Lorenzo at the Nuevo Gasómetro during the Torneo Clausura. With this win, the team led by Diego Martínez reduced the gap in the head-to-head record between the two clubs.
In the match, Ecuadorian forward Jordy Caicedo scored both goals, becoming one of the standout players. This victory also marked the end of a 25-year winless streak for Huracán at their rival's home ground.
However, Caicedo's celebration triggered a disruption in the match's atmosphere. The celebration led to a confrontation between the players, resulting in a VAR review that culminated in the expulsion of a San Lorenzo player.
The action that prompted the expulsion was a headbutt from defender Gill, who was penalized after the VAR consultation. This altered the outcome of the match, complicating the local team's situation even further in the second half.
The match was overshadowed by the incidents following Huracán's second goal, and the moment of tension reflected the dissatisfaction currently felt by San Lorenzo's supporters.
In light of this victory, Huracán positions itself more favorably, while San Lorenzo's crisis deepens, raising concerns among its followers about the team's immediate future.
