Velez move top, Tigre advance

Velez Sarsfield took top spot in the fledgling Argentinian Clausura table by beating All Boys 3-0 at the Estadio Jose Amalfitani on Tuesday. Mauro Zarate (29), Jorge Correa (49) and substitute Ramiro Caseres (73) scored the goals that earned Velez a second win from their three games to lift them above rivals Estudiantes, who host Lanus next. In third place are Tigre, who clinched a 1-0 victory at 10-man Racing Club.
