River Plate's miserable run continued on Sunday as they were beaten by Gimnasia-Jujuy 1-0 in the Argentine championship.
Hector Desvaux scored the only goal in the 58th minute, heading in from the penalty spot from a corner on the left.
The match was briefly interrupted in the first half when police intervened as rival factions of the Gimnasia supporters fought amongst themselves.
Boca Juniors jumped to third, a further three points behind, by beating Rosario Central 2-1 with an 87th minute winner from Nicolas Gaitan.
Lucas Viatri headed in Juan Roman Riquelme's cross in the seventh minute for Boca before Central replied when Emilio Zelaya turned in Alexis Danelon's low cross early in the second half.
