Boca, with 71 local titles added the amateur (14) and professional (57) erawill try to settle the pending issue he has in “La Docta”, where he lost the last two finals he played against San Lorenzo for the Argentine Super Cup in 2016 and against Tigre for the Super League Cup in 2019.
Boca built their campaign in the League Cup with a second place in Zone B behind Estudiantes de La Plata, then in heads-up they eliminated Defensa y Justicia and Racing Club.
Tigre, for his part, was fourth in the same group as the “xeneizes” and in heads-up he eliminated River Plate and Argentinos Juniorswhile against Boca he played for the last time on the last date in the area and lost in victory by 2-0 with goals from Darío Benedetto and Luis Vázquez.
Victoria’s “Matador” will play the final instance of the tournament with the enormous chance that if he wins it he will be in the Copa Libertadores next year, just five months away from achieving promotion to the First Division, and in case of lifting the trophy will achieve a mark that very few teams have: return to the highest category and be champion.
It is presumed that it will be a final of even development, because Tigre is a hard-working team and Boca has experience in decisive matches, in addition to the individual hierarchy of players such as Marcos Rojo, Benedetto, Villa and the foreign full-backs, the Peruvian Luis Advíncula and the Colombian Frank Fabre.
Total, Boca and Tigre met in 78 official matcheswith 51 victories for the “xeneizes” against 14 for the “Matador” and 13 draws.
Boca also prevails in the number of goals scored: 183 points against 82 for the Victoria team.
The final promises a spectacular setting in the stands of the Cordoba stadium, with 52,000 fans and sold-out tickets, 35,000 for Boca and 17,000 for Tigre.
