Boca Juniors vs Estudiantes: a tense result and looming Libertadores clash

Xeneize has not lifted his head, still reeling from a painful defeat to León and sinking further in the standings.

Mond remains elusive and shows no sign of bottoming out. They have dropped five of their last six league matches, and for the first time in 52 years they tasted a home loss in three consecutive tournament games. The victors this time were Estudiantes, who edged Boca 1-0 at the Alberto J. Armando stadium.

After the defeat to San Lorenzo, Jorge Almirón reshaped the board by calling in Barco and Weigandt, among others, to alter the team dynamic. In the first half the flow was stuttering, the game was evenly matched, and there were few markings on goal. In the latter stage, with Sebastián Villa entering, Boca tried to surge more, but the final third failed to test Mariano Andújar in a meaningful way.

With five minutes left on the clock, Mauro Boselli struck acrobatically in the penalty area to give Pincha a 1-0 lead. Boca pushed forward with the entire stadium urging a response, but a late equalizer never materialized. The match ended with Boca’s players leaving the field amid whistles and a few encouraging cheers from the stands.

Upcoming action takes Boca back to La Bombonera. On Tuesday, ahead of the second matchday in the Copa Libertadores, they will host Deportivo Pereira and must win to keep their path to progression against Monagas open.
