BUENOS AIRES - Two own goals in
the opening quarter sent title holders Estudiantes on their
way to a 3-0 home win over All Boys that took them top of the
Argentine Clausura championship on Friday.
All Boys goalkeeper and captain Nicolas Cambiasso spilt a
low cross from the right by Facundo Roncaglia into his net in
the 18th minute to put Estudiantes in front.
Five minutes later, defender Cristian Vella also scored an
own goal trying to divert another cross from the same wing by
striker Rodrigo Lopez.
Striker Leandro Gonzalez completed the win when he headed
home from close range at the far past following another cross
from the right eight minutes into the second half.
A 0-0 stalemate at the Diego Armando Maradona stadium
against struggling Quilmes left home side Argentinos Juniors as
the only unbeaten team in the league.
Argentinos, who have two wins and five draws, could not find
a way past bottom-placed side Quilmes, who have two points and
are the only side without a win.
