Central Cordoba sinks Tigre to stay in touch with leaders

Buenos Aires, Mar 18 (UNI) Leonardo Heredia scored in the 91st minute as Central Cordoba
recovered from a goal down to clinch a 2-1 away victory over Tigre in Argentina's Primera Division Apertura tournament.
Alfio Oviedo gave the host the lead by taking advantage of a deflection to prod home from close range in the 72nd minute on Monday.
Central Cordoba equalized eight minutes later when Gaston Veron converted from the penalty spot after Lorenzo Scipioni handled in the area.
Heredia completed a remarkable turnaround as he side-footed home from the edge of the six-yard box following Matias Perello's cross from the left wing.
The result ended a three-game winless run for Central Cordoba and lifted the side to sixth in the 15-team Group A standings with 17 points, four points behind third-placed Tigre.
Elsewhere, Union Santa Fe registered a 3-1 home victory over Banfield, Velez Sarsfield won 2-1 at Atletico Tucuman, and Platense prevailed 2-0 at San Martin.
