Ángel Di María had a remarkable influence in his brief time on the pitch, helping Rosario Central turn around their match against Banfield. Despite not being fully fit due to a leg issue, Di María entered the game and needed just 30 minutes to make his presence felt. His two accurate crosses contributed to his team's comeback, transforming a challenging match into a victory that placed Rosario Central at the top of Zone B in the Torneo Apertura.

In his absence during the previous game against Argentinos, it was evident how much Rosario Central relied on Di María's skill and leadership. The team's struggles without him highlighted his importance, as they remained unable to score in a goalless draw. His return not only revitalized the team's spirit but also showcased his ability to alter the course of a game quickly.

The victory against Banfield marks an important moment in the tournament, signaling the start of a new phase for Rosario Central under Di María's influence. With this victory, they are now sharing the lead with Belgrano in the standings, emphasizing the critical role he plays, even when not at full fitness, in guiding his team to success.
