ARFC – 18 June 2026

Ezeiza claimed a gritty 1–0 away victory over Alumni Los Hornos in the ARFC (Argentine Regional Football Championship) on a tense night at Los Hornos. The solitary goal was enough to send Ezeiza home with all three points and continue their push for a strong finish in the competition.

Match Overview

The contest was defined by stubborn defending and few clear‑cut chances. Alumni Los Hornos enjoyed the majority of possession but lacked the cutting edge to break down a well‑organised Ezeiza backline. The visitors, meanwhile, soaked up pressure and struck decisively on the counter‑attack.

Key Moments

• 34' – Goal Ezeiza: A quick break from midfield saw the ball played wide before a low cross was turned in at the near post, 0–1.
• 58' – Chance Alumni: A dangerous free‑kick from the edge of the box was tipped over the bar by the Ezeiza goalkeeper.
• 78' – Red card: Alumni Los Hornos were reduced to ten men after a second yellow card for a reckless challenge, further hampering their comeback hopes.

Tactical Story

Alumni Los Hornos attempted to dominate through short passes and overlapping runs from full‑backs, but Ezeiza sat deep, defended in numbers, and looked to exploit the space behind the home defence. The tactic paid off when a rapid transition caught Alumni out of shape. After the sending off, Alumni pushed forward desperately but could not find an equaliser.

Standout Players

Ezeiza’s central defender was immense, making several clearances and blocking shots. The away goalkeeper also produced a vital save late on. For Alumni Los Hornos, the midfielder who earned the free‑kick that almost brought a goal showed creativity but lacked support.

League Context

The victory lifted Ezeiza into the upper half of the ARFC standings, while Alumni Los Hornos remained in the mid‑table zone. Both teams will look to build on this performance – Ezeiza will take confidence from their defensive resilience, while Alumni will rue their inability to convert possession into points.
