Newell’s beat River Plate to defend lead

Newell’s Old Boys successfully defended their Argentinian league lead with a 2-1 win over troubled River Plate on Saturday.

Joaquin Boghossian put Newell’s ahead after 4 minutes, but had his goal cancelled out by Diego Buonanotte in the 63rd.

However, Boghossian had the final say as he netted again in the 79th minute. This time, his goal was enough for three points.

Newell’s shared the lead with Banfield ahead of this game, but now leave the pressure on Banfield to beat San Lorenzo on Sunday.

River Plate meanwhile, are in 17th place with just ten points from 13 games.
