The first 45 minutes in the
Bombonera
were quite flat in terms of football generation.
Boca tried to impose its hierarchy but never managed to impose itself on
River
, who knew how to plant a flag in the midfield to sustain the attacks of the local team.
However,
Xeneize
hit harder and went ahead at halftime. After combining a good associated play,
Carlos Tevez
opened the scoring and put the partial 1-0 for de la
Ribera
. At 10 ', Apache anticipated
Jonatan
Maidana
, attacking him from behind, and sent the ball to the back of the net after a correct cross by
Cristian
Medina
on the right side of the playing field.
Total relief in the Bombonera.
The cast of
Núñez
felt the blow, although they did not despair and continued trying to impose their conditions.
With
Jorge
Carrascal
as the creator of the game, those led by
Marcelo
Gallardo
were at the front but did not have the necessary efficiency in the final meters and did not disturb
Agustín Rossi
.
At halftime, the game for River was complicated with the injury of Enzo Pérez, also thinking about the Copa Libertadores.
The
Millionaire
cast
never shrunk and came out plugged into the complement despite having several important casualties due to coronavirus.
Therefore,
at 68 they equalized the score after an accurate header from Julián Álvarez
and spiced the match played at the stadium located in Brandsen at 805.
Miguel Russo
moved the bench, but to no avail.
The changes had no effect on him and
Boca could
not manipulate his eternal rival, who found
his main figure
in
Leo Díaz
: the rival goalkeeper covered a tremendous shot at
Tevez
and kept his team in the game.
The minutes ran, the scoreboard did not move and the classic of the date ended on
penalties
: there,
Agustín
Rossi
dressed as a hero and helped his team advance to the semifinals.
The
Xeneize
not only ticket pulled, but also cut a long streak against rival lifetime.
Party
in La
Boca
, party in half the country plus one.
