The game was played at the Julio Humberto Grondona stadium, Juan Ramírez opened the scoring for Boca at 44 minutes of the first stage and Bruno Sepúlveda equalized at 3 minutes of the second.
Boca now has 60 points in the general table and surpasses Lanús by five, who if he wins the two remaining games he still has a mathematical chance of qualifying, which is not easy but not impossible.
The poor performance of those directed by Sebastián Battaglia was the end of a week to be forgotten, after the versions of acts of indiscipline by Carlos Zambrano, Edwin Cardona and Sebastián Villa.
On Wednesday he will play the final of the Argentine Cup against Talleres next Wednesday, in Santiago del Estero, as a start for a team that showed a barely discreet first half and a final part in which it was clearly surpassed by a team that is also last in the Annual table and that came from losing 5 to 0 in Santiago del Estero by Central Córdoba, Boca’s next rival.
In the first part of a process from mediocre downwards, Boca became the owner of the ball but lacked the ideas to create the situations according to his domain.
A header from Izquierdoz, a shot from Cardona and an arrival from Villa was the little the visitors created against a rival that showed why they are last in the tournament.
In those led by Battaglia, only Cardona showed some intelligence in the middle.
At the end, a ball from the Colombian midfielder was brought down by Fabra so that Vázquez enabled Ramírez to tackle and he, in the first half, scored his first goal in the “Xeneize” and established the logical 1 to 0.
In the final part Boca entered “asleep” and allowed Arsenal to grow in the middle due to the work of Miloc and Picco. In the visit only Campuzzano resisted and the locals began to create situations against Rossi.
Albertengo had it twice and in the following Sepúlveda achieved the tie at 31 minutes with a crossed shot that put justice on the scoreboard.
The confusion of the Battaglia team was very evident, especially due to the poor deliveries of their defenders Izquierdoz and Rojo, and if things were not worse it was due to the inexperience of the youthful Viveros, who solved badly only against Rossi and deprived his team of a victory that at that point would not have been surprising.
On the next date, the 25th. and last of the LPF, Boca will host Central de Córdoba and Arsenal will visit Banfield.
