Boca Juniors stretched its bad moment, suffered this Sunday another defeat that left it penultimate and continues to be orphaned of triumphs in the 2021 Argentine soccer tournament, led by Independiente.
The ‘xeneize’ team fell 1-0 with Estudiantes by the sixth date with a goal by Fabián Noguera (76), with a header, for the ‘Pincha’ who quietly climbed to third place, two points behind Independiente, in a very good campaign led by the ‘Russian’ Zielinski.
In the other side, Boca returned to leave a very poor image, with just one shot on goal in the ninety minutes, a poor collective performance, with a coach who took a long time to look for variants – only when the team was already at a disadvantage – and with just two goals scored in the six dates in the tournament.
With just one win in their last 16 games if all competitions are taken into account, almost marginalized from the brand-new tournament and already eliminated from the Copa Libertadores, his great goal of the year, Boca only has to hold on to the Copa Argentina to try to win a ticket to the Libertadores-2022, although he does have a guaranteed pass to the South American Cup next year.
In the Argentine championship, Boca has 10 games without success, with which it equaled the worst streak in its history in the first division, similar to that of the 1957 championship, when it also passed 10 matches without victories, a negative run that began last May 8, with the defeat against Patronato (1-0) , for the qualifying stage of the League Cup.
After six dates, only Boca and Vélez, the last, are the only two teams among the 26 of the first tournament that have not managed to win not a single match.
Racing, after the departure of Juan Antonio Pizzi from technical driving, was reunited with victory by beating Newell’s at home 2-0, with goals from Ignacio Scocco (53, against) and Uruguayan Fabricio Domínguez (72), a result that leaves him in an expectant fourth place, three points behind his arch-enemy Independiente.
Earlier, Platense shouted their first championship win by beating Arsenal 2-1 at home with goals from Mauro Bogado (22, from penalty) and Lucas Acevedo (31), while Brian Farioli (76, from penalty) narrowed the gap for Sarandí’s team.
In Paraná, Board of Trustees won 1-0 over Central Córdoba and he took another step in a great start to the campaign, with a goal from Leandro Marín (65) for the red-black from Entre Ríos, who looks to the top positions.
