Their share of possession in that meeting was 38%, while racking up 15 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Independiente, who had 16 shots on goal with 2 on target.
Manager Julio Vaccari will be delighted with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 12 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 6 goals conceded in the same period.
