Chacarita responded by dominating possession in the second half, but the Suarez defence held firm, with the central defensive pairing making several crucial blocks and interceptions.

Standout Performers
The Tristan Suarez goalkeeper was the hero of the night, producing a man-of-the-match display with five saves, including that vital late stop. His defence, led by the captain, also deserves credit for absorbing pressure without cracking. For Chacarita, the right winger looked lively but lacked support in the final third.
This victory lifts Tristan Suarez into the upper half of the Primera Nacional standings, while Chacarita Juniors will regret their inability to convert dominance into goals.
