River fell to a home defeat at the hands of Talleres Córdoba at Estadio Monumental Antonio Vespucio Liberti on Sunday. Both River and Talleres arrived on the back of wins. River were looking to pick up points, following a 1-0 victory against San Lorenzo. Talleres were looking to extend their winning run after a 2-0 victory against Colón. River are now in 6th place on the table and have 32 points while Talleres sit in 19th with 25 points after 21 matches.

After an uneventful first half, Talleres continued to pile on the pressure in the second period and were rewarded, when Ulises Ortegoza found the net just before the final whistle, seing the match finish 1-0.

Substitutions for River included Juan Quintero, Jose Paradela and Lucas Beltran for Ezequiel Barco, Santiago Simon and Pablo Solari, respectively. Talleres brought on Ulises Ortegoza, Juan Cruz Giacone, Hector Fertoli and Fabio Alvarez, to replace Christian Oliva, Matias Godoy, Francisco Pizzini and Rodrigo Garro.
