On field 1 of the Campo Argentino de Polo in Palermo, on Saturday 11/12, dates 5 of the most important tournament in the world ended: the 129th HSBC Argentine Polo Open.
In a match in which there was a lot at stake because both arrived undefeated, La Irenita Grand Champions defeated La Ensenada RS Murus Sanctus 13-11 and, with two wins in the same number of presentations, was in a good position to define Zone A , on Friday 11/25. In addition, he won the Johnnie Walker Cup, which was at stake in this match.
In a changing game and at times very even, La Irenita achieved an important victory that leaves it standing very well in the face of a hypothetical zone definition. With a great game by Fran Elizalde from Pampas, LI Grand Champions turned the score around after the 0-4 in the initial chukker, went ahead from the fourth and then managed the advantage. La Ensenada RS MS did not give up and tried to achieve a tie that would take the game to extra time, but Jero del Carril's expulsion with one minute to go cut off the chance.

La Irenita Grand Champions: Juan Britos (h) 9 (4 goals, three penalties), Francisco Elizalde 9 (4), Pablo Mac Donough 10 (3, one penalty) and Juan M. Zubía 8 (2). Overall: 36.
