On 13 March 2011 River Plate hosted Vélez Sársfield in the fifth round of the Clausura 2011 tournament. The home side were unbeaten in their first four games and their rookie goalkeeper 20 year old Leandro Chichizola hadn't conceded a single goal. After 395 minutes without conceding a goal Chichizola finally let one in and he had nobody to blame but himself after gifting the ball to Vélez striker Santiago Silva.
Mariano Pavone equalised for River in the second half but Santiago Silva scored again late in the game to give Vélez a 1-2 away win.
