Buenos Aires, Feb. 5 -- Deportivo Riestra climbed to second in Group B of Argentina's Primera Division Apertura standings with a 3-0 victory at Atletico Tucuman.
The visitors took the lead in the 39th minute through Nicolas Sansotre on Tuesday, who swept a powerful first-time effort into the top-left corner after Mario Sanabria's cutback.
Jonathan Herrera made it 2-0 in the 70th minute when he intercepted an errant backpass and coolly rounded goalkeeper Tomas Durso before completing the easiest of tap-ins.
Antony Alonso completed the rout by capitalizing on more lax defending as he blocked a rushed clearance from Durso, prompting the ball to rebound into an empty net.
The result leaves Deportivo Riestra with seven points from three ...
