Banfield vs Independiente Match Report
Banfield thrashed Independiente 3-0 at the Florencio Sola stadium on Monday, a result that saw the side escape from the bottom of the table. The result also complicated Independiente's passage towards the 2012 Copa Libertadores, South America's premier club competition.Right from the beginning, Banfield took the initiative in the midfield and created several goal-scoring opportunities, although they were quite imprecise when it came to finishing. Despite the dismissal of Independiente's Julian Velazquez in the 30th minute, Banfield couldn't make the most of the advantage.
However, the situation changed for Ricardo La Volpe's side in the second half, when in the 53rd minute Facundo Ferreyra broke the deadlock for Banfield when he beat Fabian Assman with a simple finish after being sent through on goal by Jonathan Gomez. Four minutes later Ferreyra was at it again, adding Banfield's second with another straight-forward finish.
Independiente, who lacked authority in their game, came closest to scoring with a Ivan Perez drive that hit the crossbar. Right before the final whistle Walter Acevedo sealed the rout for Banfield with a fabulous long-range thunderbolt.
