3-0: Blow up Boca at La Bombonera

The screams of the fans Mouth repeating “I like Libertadores” and singing for colors doesn’t cover the blow delivered by banfield. Any of the xeneized replacements could be the starter to the green and white team celebrating a win over Bombonera. That’s why it’s hard to punch Boca.

While trying to impress Arturo Vidal, Boca bet everything on the continental cup and reserved the best for Tuesday’s rematch against Corinthians, for the Libertadores ’round of 16. And that option once again had value. The replacements have already lost at home against a replacement version of Unión. They now end up kneeling through the main formation.

Boca’s difficulties were born in the middle of the first half. In the spaces he has already found, Banfield completes them with depth, precision and brutal efficiency. Then Giuliano Galoppo appeared with scissors to make it 1-0. Later, Ramiro Enrique came out twice. The son of Mexico’s 86 world champion, the remembered Héctor Enrique, pushed him to second and resolved to third.

It all happened between 21 and 38 minutes of that initial stage. They are three direct daggers to the heart xeneizes. The 3-0 was undisputed, although Boca hid it in the search in the second period and on some free throws by Aaron Molinas that sent off goalkeeper Enrique Bologna.

Boca is stuck in seventh position with 9 points, in a position table where the Students lead with 13. In any case, the table will change because the sixth date of the league is just beginning.
