Platense and Lanús Draw 0-0, Miss Key Points in Apertura Tournament Qualification Race

Vicente López, Argentina – Platense and Lanús played out a goalless draw at Estadio Ciudad Vicente López on the 9th matchday of the Apertura Tournament. In a game lacking clear chances, both teams missed a crucial opportunity to strengthen their positions in the race for playoff qualification.

A Match Without Spark

The first half saw little action, with neither team able to string together consistent attacks. Goalkeepers Nahuel Losada (Platense) and Juan Pablo Cozzani (Lanús) had a quiet 45 minutes, as both sides struggled to create meaningful scoring opportunities.

Platense’s closest chances came from Maximiliano Rodríguez, who narrowly missed the far post, and Franco Zapiola, whose header went just wide. Lanús, on the other hand, saw Walter Bou fire over the crossbar after receiving a pass from Marcelino Moreno.

The second half began with more intensity but soon faded into frustration as neither side could break the deadlock. Substitutions made little impact, and no player stood out enough to tilt the match in their team’s favor.

Qualification Hangs in the Balance

With this result, Platense remains in 7th place, while Lanús sits in 8th. Both teams stay within the playoff qualification zone but must rely on other results to maintain their spots.
