Soccer-Teenager Lencina bags brace as River crush Instituto 4-0
(Reuters) -Santiago Lencina struck twice as River Plate hammered 10-man Instituto ACC 4-0 on Saturday, making it two wins from two matches for the visitors in Argentina's Clausura championship. Facundo Colidio put River ahead in the 44th minute with a deflected shot before 19-year-old Lencina doubled their lead just moments before halftime with a left-foot strike that deflected off Instituto centre back Fernando Alarcon. Lencina made it 3-0 in the 67th minute with a well-controlled shot after receiving the ball in the box, while Instituto were reduced to 10 men six minutes later after midfielder Francis Manuel Mac Allister received a red card for a foul on Lencina. River made the most of the red as Giuliano Galoppo added a fourth goal to wrap up all three points in style at the Estadio Juan Domingo Peron in Cordoba.
