Newell’s Old Boys difficult run continued with a home defeat against River Plate on Wednesday night in Rosario.
Having matched River up to the break, with Nacho Scocco cancelling out Nicolás de la Cruz’s early opener, the quality of the Millonario’s forwards overwhelmed La Lepra in the second half. A brace from Julián Álvarez and another from Jorge Carrascal condemned Fernando Gamboa to another defeat as Newell’s coach – his 5th in 11 games.
