Buenos Aires, Sept. 20 -- Swiss defender Lucas Blondel scored late as Huracan showed its title credentials with a 2-1 victory at River Plate in Argentina's Clausura tournament.
Oscar Cortes put the visitors ahead with a 25-yard free-kick but Tomas Galvan equalized when his first-time effort from outside the area left goalkeeper Hernan Galindez with no chance on Saturday.
Blondel restored his side's advantage in the 80th minute, slotting a low 18-yard drive into the far corner as Huracan clinched its fourth win of the campaign.
The result at Monumental Stadium in Buenos Aires leaves Huracan third in the 15-team Zone B standings, three points ahead of ninth-placed River Plate, according to Xinhua.
