Boca showed another image, overturned the game and fell against Atlético Tucumán in a controversial final

The finish is an explosive cocktail. Of happiness and relaxation for the triumph that gives back the soul and the body to Boca in this championship that is still possible to fight. Of indignation and broncfor a penalty that is impossible not to charge with the technological support. The last play, that elbow by Carlos Zambrano on maestro Puch, is a symptom of Argentine football, so similar to the national scene. A judge can omit a foul. The other, which has access to HD images, can’t be wrong. Did it weigh on you to make the decision that corresponded to that fiery Bombonera? At the very least, one must speak of a great ineptitude.

Later, of course, will come the ninety-minute analysis. And when the foam drops, Atlético Tucumán will have to evaluate the decisions they have made in the complement. After a perfect first phase, he gave in, defended very close to his goalkeeper and despite filling the area with center-backs, he didn’t have Luca Langoni’s stellar night. The 19-year-old boy showed all the lights of him. And this time, It will be necessary to recognize that Hugo Ibarra had a pulse for change. With determination, courage and a tireless Sebastián Villa, he showed another image, overturned the game and fell on the bet.

The discussion that opens up about possession goes blank when the team that owns the possession doesn’t know how to use it. In the first time, Boca predominated in ball control, but Atlético Tucumán played better. It was enough with order, concentration, advance and quick exit. In short or long. He then followed Agustín Rossi’s goal and took the lead after the opening forty-five minutes.

Boca had a better start, more intense, with some couples, but above all very sharp on the left with the Colombian tandem. Frank Fabra and Villa unbalanced on the outside, but on the inside no one was able to resolve themselves. In the first risk situation, when just sixty seconds had been played, there was a triangulation that could have been a great goal. Juan Ramírez opened for Fabra, Villa who played on the edge of his compatriot and the central defender found the former San Lorenzo midfielder in the lead. He ended up badly trampled, intercepted Bruno Bianchi and stopped Carlos Lampe.

That game seemed to have a profile of the identity that Ibarra tries to impress on his team. But it is not enough with Villa and Fabra’s incisors if there is not a good articulation of the game. Polo shirt Fernández tried to be the axis, but Oscar Romero didn’t work for the right sector. And on the edge of the 4-1-4-1 in which Boca tried to be aggressive, the good intentions ended, as always, in the individual arrests of the attacker born in Antioquia, making the containment task of Martín Garay difficult and Renzo Tesuri. Luis Vázquez, the “9” and reference of the area, did not weigh.

And it was enough for Atlético Tucumán, who had shown himself crouched to recover and go straight to the spaces, to anticipate on one side performed by Advíncula to violate Rossi. Joaquín Pereyra enabled Ramiro Ruiz Rodríguez and Ramiro Carrera’s cross between the central defenders found an excellent response from Augusto Lotti who anticipated everyone with a header.

Ruiz Rodríguez lost the second, after a hitch against Figal. Great reaction from Rossi. Boca had only disturbed Lampe with a free kick from Romero.

In the second half, the toucumans were delayed. They tried to block the spaces, bite and Boca established himself. Pol Fernández took charge of the assembly, but Villa was always the repulsive, exposing Garay, beyond Tesuri’s effort to collaborate with his partner. And Advíncula grew to the right, very prominent behind Pereyra.

The entry of Darío Benedetto and the departure of Ramírez gave him more variations on the above. If centers were the key to the tie, he needed another striker. From a load of the fallen Peruvian Vázquez, he touches the 1 to 1, but a header from Pipa in the small area hits the crossbar.

Until Langoni entered. Guillermo Acosta gave it to him, put it on Pol’s chest. Vázquez opened for Villa and the Colombian’s center found the cover boy’s header.

There was already Nicolás Thaller, central defender, Lotti’s substitute. Also, Aaron Molinas. And from a corner of the snag that Zambrano lowered and shortly rejected by the former Lanús came Langoni’s bomb.

In the end Mateo Coronel almost equalized, but Rossi covered. Espinoza does not see the rigor of Zambrano. Even Baliño in the VAR, incredibly. Even so, Boca won well for the match. Atlético Tucumán lost him due to his excessive caution. Apart from the controversy, of course.
