# Huracán Dismantle Belgrano with Commanding 3-1 Victory at the Ducó
**BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA —** Huracán delivered a dominant home performance at the Estadio Tomás Adolfo Ducó on Tuesday, dismantling Belgrano 3-1 in the Argentine Liga Profesional de Fútbol to snap a difficult recent run and announce themselves as genuine contenders in the competition.
From the opening whistle, Huracán set a relentless attacking tempo that Belgrano could not match. The reward came swiftly. Thaiel Peralta broke the deadlock in the 14th minute, converting a left-footed shot from outside the box to the bottom right corner after being set up by Ignacio Campo. Just seven minutes later, Óscar Cortés curled a left-footed effort from distance into the bottom left corner to double the advantage. By the interval, Huracán's 2-0 scoreline reflected their clear superiority in the opening half.
Belgrano, deploying a 4-2-3-1 formation matching their hosts, struggled to establish any meaningful presence. Lucas Zelarayán and Adrián Sánchez tested the Huracán backline with efforts from distance, but neither could trouble the home goalkeeper. Instead, Belgrano's Thiago Cardozo found himself the busier of the two stoppers, finishing the match with four saves to his name as Huracán's attacking prowess kept him constantly engaged.
The second half saw Huracán extend their control. Peralta struck again in the 57th minute, finishing from the left side of the box to the bottom right corner following a swift fast break, with Cortés providing the assist. At 3-0, the contest appeared decided. Belgrano's consolation came in the 67th minute when Franco Vázquez struck a left-footed effort from outside the box to the top left corner, assisted by substitute Lucas Passerini, but it amounted to little more than a footnote to Huracán's commanding display.
The statistics underscored Huracán's dominance. The hosts registered 20 shot attempts to Belgrano's nine, with seven on target compared to just two for the visitors. Possession remained relatively balanced at 51.3% to 48.7%, yet Huracán's clinical finishing in the final third proved decisive. Cardozo's four saves prevented an even heavier defeat, a testament to Belgrano's defensive resilience despite their overall struggles.
Both sides finished with two yellow cards apiece and no dismissals, maintaining competitive discipline throughout.
For Huracán, the victory provides a timely confidence boost following their previous loss to Estudiantes de Río Cuarto. For Belgrano, the result demands serious reflection as they prepare for their next Liga Profesional assignment.
