In an intense game, those led by Hugo Ibarra were able to continue their streak of 15 games without losing, but this time with the special addition of having played one of the best games in the League.
Beyond that in the final minute he suffered with a shot from the goalkeeper Sebastian table, who went to do the “heroic” in the opponent’s area and deflected Rossi in a great save, the leader of the contest showed good moments that this time justified his position in the table, apart from getting up in spirits after the injury of his captain Marcos Rojo in the right knee that made him leave in the middle of the first half.
And to that is added the failure of a penalty by the defender, who saved tableat the best moment of his team.
This time with outgoing singles like the ever firm Agustin Rossithe rises of frank fabraand the good tasks of Alan Varela, Cristian Medina and Oscar Romero in the middle.
Up Darius Benedetto fulfilled and a separate paragraph for the youthful Luca Langoni, author of six goals in Hugo Ibarra’s cycle, most of them key to achieving fundamental victories.
In the absence of the “ace of spades” in the “xeneize” offense that is Sebastián Villa, he could return this weekend against Ñewell’s, and the also injured Ezekiel Zeballosthe 19-year-old youth became the pointer’s “ace of clubs”.
Today was a nightmare for his marker Frederick Rasmussencame out in the final part and participated in the penalty play and was the author of the winning goal.
Beyond the individualities and although the locals sometimes matched him in development, this time Boca was close to the team that some claimed to be a leader in Argentine soccer.
The winner came out to take over the game from the start, despite the fact that his rival spread out and left him the ball, this time those led by Ibarra, unlike other games, had more mobility and intelligence in the middle of the field.
At 23 minutes, a quick clearance by Romero left the extreme youth alone, who entered diagonally and when he wanted to avoid Meza inside the area, he blocked him with one of his right leg and caused the penalty that Facundo Tello sanctioned without hesitation.
Marcos Rojo unceremoniously went to the ball, his execution went to the middle of the goal and the local goalkeeper deflected it with his left leg to send it to the corner kick.
But the bad news did not stop there for the captain of the leader of the League, who returned after three dates, because after that corner he fought a ball in the rival field and landed badly with his right knee, he collapsed on the field and quickly his companions requested medical assistance.
The scene was a break for Mouth from the cry of one of his referents and the entrance of Facundo Roncaglia for him. Since then there has been a Sarmiento who was encouraged and began to pressure him before Rossi’s goal.
A shot of Luciano Gondou that contained the goalkeeper and another that took the corner before a shot from Lisandro “Licha” Lopez they were the signs that the meeting had been equalized.
But towards the end Boca made the perfect counter that was born at the feet of medina to enable left to Benedict and he saw the one who “is always there”, the youthful Langoni. who did not forgive to put the visitors at an advantage.
In the first quarter of an hour of the second half, Boca had three other clear chances to settle the contest: One by Benedetto that went just over the crossbar, another individual play by Fabbra that passed several players and could not define before the exit of table, and the last one from Romero who missed it next to the goal.
Later came the changes and the departures of Benedetto and Langoni were noted because Sarmiento began to press again, albeit with more will than ideas.
And in the last minutes, Boca, with spaces and the entry of the kid Gonzalo Morales, could have increased the just difference on the scoreboard.
Until, towards the end, a shot by goalkeeper Meza almost equalized the match, something that would not have been consistent with the reality shown by the two teams.
Next Sunday, by the 26th date. of the LPF, Boca will travel to Rosario to face Ñewell’s Old Boys and Sarmiento will do it again at home on Monday against San Lorenzo.
