Primera Matchday Recap: late drama at the Monumental

A 95th-minute winner steals the headlines in a wild round.

It took 94 minutes, a deflected free-kick and a goalkeeper's split-second hesitation, but River Plate found the win that keeps them top of the Primera Division.

Trailing 1-0 at home to a stubborn Talleres side, the Monumental had begun to fidget. The home support, used to dominance, had endured 60 minutes of frustration. Then the manager threw on the kids — and the game changed.

The 19-year-old equaliser was clinical: a half-volley into the bottom corner. The winner came from a set piece, the ball clipping a defender and looping over the goalkeeper. The whistle blew seconds later. Cue chaos.
