This is what the Professional League Cup tables looked like: Boca is still out of the playoffs but was the big winner on a date when everyone was packed

There are still four games left until the end of date 10 of the Professional League Cup. But the tournament enters the zone of definitions and no one wants to be left out of the playoffs that will define the champion in this first semester of the always frenetic Argentine football.

In Zone A, where there are still two games to play -Banfield-Vélez and Independiente Rivadavia-Riestra-, there are now four leaders. River, Talleres, Argentinos and Independiente dominate with 18 points. And it could be five if Fortín beats Taladro in the south of the GBA: But, in addition, Instituto (17) and Barracas Central (16) are on the alert. A little further away are Rosario Central (14) and Gimnasia (13). Yes, anything can still happen.

A little less crowded are zone B, where Godoy Cruz leads with 20 points, followed by Estudiantes with 18 and Newell’s with 17. A fact: none of the three managed to add three points this day. Behind appears Lanús, who will visit the oppressed Tigre this Monday from 7pm. Granate has 16 points and is on the same line as Boca, who recovered thanks to the 4-2 success over Racing in the beautiful match played at the Bombonera.

Defensa y Justicia also has 16 units and further back, still with possibilities, are Unión de Santa Fe (15) and Racing (14). And Tatengue and the Academy had a bad Sunday and were left empty-handed. The appointment will end on Tuesday with a duel in this area which will see Central Córdoba and Belgrano as protagonists, too far away from the one under discussion.
