How to explain such an attack in the middle of the euphoria xeneize? How to set aside the strictly emotional side to analyze these ninety minutes of journey to glory? Boca revived a night that will be unforgettable. Because it's not just about his 69th Olympic lap. Much less, of a win against Gymnastics, the day of the return of Diego Maradona, which was once Fluff with the blue and gold shirt.

The victory begins to pay off the debts of the last five years. Because River was his black beast. In the South American 2014, in the Libertadores 2015, in the Supercopa Argentina 2018, in the unpublished final of Madrid, in the semi-cup of 2019. Then, this result of high impact, a meager 1 to 0 but just since the development, Celebrate with madness, with emotion, with vindictive spirit. It is not for less. If the above were "chickens," as the tribune sings, how not to unleash such happiness?

Boca won because he never threw in the towel. Even when the ball burned. That the goal has come from the feet of Carlos Tevez is a symptom of this brief but intense cycle of the last technical champion of America, who only needed seven games to snatch the title from River. The one that was Gustavo Alfaro's flag since the sayings ended up being the emblem of Miguel Angel Russo from the facts.

Carlitos made the goal of the championship. It was from a climb of Frank Fabra, a sharp side, without inhibitions. From a wall with his compatriot Sebastián Villa. Of a pass of Wanchope, that a while had entered by Franco Soldano. And from a shot of the right foot of the idol of Fuerte Apache that overcame the resistance of Jorge Broun, until that moment the figure of the court. The Rosario goalkeeper put his hand loose and tarnished all the good he had done during the first half.

In that span, precisely, Boca looked much more like Alfaro's team than Russo's. Fundamentally, because it made no collective sense. He lacked connection and clarity in 3/4, where Tevez was disheartened to receive the ball because Gymnastics surrounded his apple. He left with dominion and conviction from the middle Jorman Campuzano, sometimes Julio Buffarini broke off and much more Fabra. However, there was little triangulation. Hardly a wall that Villa and Carlitos armed that the captain finished off the crossbar.

Boca's best offer was on the sides, especially for the sector that Matías García and Lucas Licht covered. There, Villa turned around for a while, after Eduardo Salvio, both very imprecise. But each center behind found the gymnastics centers well stopped. And when Maxi Colonel or Paolo Goltz did not arrive, Broun became enormous.

The archer was decisive during the first half. He covered a Salvio cross shot, a header from Zambrano at the exit of a Tevez corner and a Soldano popcorn that he connected after an overflow from Salvio.

Boca pushed, he demanded, on board his fans, that they were waiting for every movement in Tucumán. How much will Atlético Tucumán's goal have influenced the development of the game? The message went down to the playing field. And the team was not lucid. With the exception of Campuzano, who even took the spear to break lines, the rest went into confusion. And everyone ended up asking for penalties that Facundo Tello, impeccable, did not buy.

Gymnastics grouped back and looked for some against, but none of Pérez García's shipments had brilliance. With Quick Stable, but not very ductile, recovery flyers and defenders worked much harder than attack men.

Esteban Andrada had the save worth the title. A medium-distance Continin bomb that the goalkeeper drew remarkably. And Salvio was able to put the party together a long time before, but it resolved badly, just in front of the arch. And Broun anticipated Wanchope. Until the legendary auction of Tevez arrived. Everyone had a chill when Agudelo almost tied his head. But it was Boca night, the one he waited for in a five-year period full of rival triumphs.
