Boca sweep into 2026 Sudamericana quarters, San Pablo await | OneFootball

Boca thrashed Recoleta 4-0 in Paraguay to complete a 7-1 aggregate and book a place in the 2026 Copa Sudamericana quarter-finals. According to LaNumer12.com.ar, their next opponents were confirmed only hours later.

After a 1-1 draw in Bolivia, San Pablo beat Bolívar 3-1 in Brazil to take the tie 4-2 on aggregate and set up a last-eight meeting with Boca. Dorival Junior’s side included former Boca forward Jonathan Calleri, now Tricolor captain, who converted a penalty for 2-1 past ex Boca goalkeeper Carlos Lampe.

The tie is yet to be officially dated, but the first leg is set for La Bombonera between 8 and 10 September, with the return at Morumbí between 15 and 17.

It will be a first Sudamericana meeting between the clubs in nearly 20 years. In 2007, Miguel Ángel Russo’s Boca won the first leg 2-1 at La Bombonera thanks to a Martín Palermo brace.

Borges pulled one back on 89 minutes, then at Morumbí Aloisio scored on 53 to level the aggregate. With away goals in force, Boca were knocked out in the round of 16.
