Boca had everything to win it but Colón surprised him at the end

But ultimately equality was fair beyond that in the final part Mouth, with some counterattack he was able to establish more differences on the scoreboard.

The gaze was fixed on the two returnees, the aforementioned Benedict and Guillermo “Pol” Fernández, who were from the beginning in the formation diagrammed by Sebastian Battaglia.

But just as he was noticed at the wheel without rhythm, “Pipa” met his goalscoring quota although it was noted that he still lacks physically.

With nothing left over and with the merit of having the scorer at the right time, those led by Battaglia they were in advantage until at the end a center by Facundo Farias, who was on the Boca radar at the beginning of the year, was received by “Flea” Rodriguez and as a heel she left only Beltrán so that the former River Plate pushed her before the silence of the crowd that filled the Bombonera.

At the beginning of the game, the surprise visit had the clearest situation of the first half, when the 60 seconds had not passed and the “Flea” Rodriguez He entered only from the left and with a header he surpassed Agustin Rossibut about the line rejected Carlos Izquierdoz.

From then on and within a slow and boring development, on a difficult playing field and that still could not recover from the work carried out to fix its drainage, since the sand covered the most damaged surfaces, Boca tried to become strong but “pol” Fernandez did not come into play and Juan Ramirez it appeared too far to the left, so it did not weigh in the assembly of the game.

In the middle of that insignificance Luis Advincula He went through his sector, the right, and launched a center back that could not be connected by Benedict.

It was an alarm for the arch of Leonardo Buriansince two minutes later a precise cross from Sebastián Villa found Benedict very only in the small area and the scorer with a header did not forgive.

It was the reunion of the idol with his people and his cry was to tell everyone that “Pipa” had returned.

But then came the bucket of cold water from Beltrán’s goal at the end of the game and the logical equality, because in the distribution of merits the two had to take something.

And although the return of Benedict was surrounded by emotion, there were also two other moments of high emotional voltage on the night of the Bombonera, and both were recorded before the game.

The first was when Colón’s coach entered the field of play, Julio Falconiwho received a warm and affectionate recognition from the “xeneize” fans, the same that he did not have back in 2012 when the current vice president of the club, did not have for him when he was directed.

And the other took place when it was delivered to the relatives of the deceased third vice president, Roberto Digón, who received a plaque as a tribute, before another emotional tribute from the auriazul bias.
