Boca take 1-0 lead to Morumbí for São Paulo test | OneFootball

Boca Juniors carry a narrow 1-0 advantage into the Copa Sudamericana quarter-final second leg away to São Paulo, while aiming to reverse a long-running struggle on Brazilian soil.

According to LaNumer12.com.ar, the trip ranks among the club’s most demanding tests on the continent. Rodolfo Arruabarrena’s side edged the first leg at La Bombonera, yet the tie remains fully in the balance.

Recent figures underline the scale. Across their last 19 continental matches in Brazil, Boca have managed only two wins, eight draws and nine defeats.

The only victories in that stretch were 1-0 at Atlético Paranaense in 2019 and 1-0 at Internacional de Porto Alegre in 2020. They have also eked out vital draws and shoot-out successes in the country, examples they will look to draw on in pursuit of a semi-final berth.

Their most recent visit to Brazil ended in a 1-0 defeat to Cruzeiro in this year’s Libertadores.

The return is on Tuesday 15 September at 21:30, at the Morumbí.
