The La Plata derby had its goals and excitment as both sides ended up with a controvsersial 1-1 draw.
Juan Cuevas had given Gimnasia the lead on 71 minutes but that would lead to controversy towards the end of the game. Gimnasia were crusing until 89 minutes when Estudiantes pushed Gimnasia back. Then 6 minutes into added time Cristian Sánchez Prette scored the equailiser that caused joy for Estudiantes and dispair for Gimnasia. Then both sides had a player sent off for violent conduct. Diego Villar for Gimnasia and Leondro Benítez f Estudiantes both seeing red.
The draw will be better for Gimnasia with them in 6th place with 12 points from 8 games. But Estudiantes needed a win and the draw leaves them in 19th with 6 points from 8 games.
Gimnasia are away to Godoy Cruz next weekend while Estudiantes host Boca Juniors!
