River and Vélez drew 2-2 at the Monumental, with more of the ball but less penetration for the home side

River Plate had 57% possession and took more shots, but Vélez were more efficient and ended up taking the match to a 2-2 draw that was even both on the scoreline and in what each side created. The standout figure was the balance between production and the slim difference in clear chances, with a finish that stayed open until the end.
