The Clásico Rosarino between Rosario Central and Newell's Old Boys ended in a 1-1 draw at the Estadio Gigante de Arroyito during the eighth round of the Torneo Clausura. Gastón Ávila opened the scoring for Central in the 46th minute of the first half with a powerful volley following a corner kick. Newell's secured a late equalizer in stoppage time through Matías Cóccaro; the goal was initially ruled offside but was subsequently validated by VAR. The match was marked by high tension and frequent fouls. During the first half, the stadium paused to honor Lionel Messi following his international retirement, with chants for Ángel Di María also noted. Following the equalizer, celebrations by Newell's players directed toward the local stands resulted in projectiles being thrown onto the pitch, necessitating police intervention. With this result, Rosario Central occupies sixth place in Group B and Newell's sits fifth in Group A, both holding 12 points. The draw also breaks a streak of six consecutive losses for Newell's in this classic matchup.
