When Boca face São Paulo in the return leg | OneFootball

Boca earned a crucial win over São Paulo in the first leg of the Copa Sudamericana quarterfinals. With a goal from Miguel Merentiel, the Xeneize claimed the victory at home and hopes to make the most of the advantage to close out the tie in its favor. To advance to the next stage of the international tournament, the team from La Ribera will have to visit Tricolor in Brazil.

Coached by Rodolfo Arruabarrena, Boca beat São Paulo 1-0 at La Bombonera in the opening match of the quarterfinal tie. However, this result does not guarantee a place in the next round of the Sudamericana. To do that, Xeneize must hold on to the advantage in the second leg, which will take place next Tuesday, September 15, at Morumbi, starting at 9:30 PM.

Before wrapping up the tie, the club from La Ribera will face Central Córdoba of Santiago del Estero. The match for the ninth round of the Torneo Clausura will be played this Friday, September 11, starting at 9:30 PM at Alberto J. Armando Stadium. Meanwhile, Tricolor will play the São Paulo derby against Palmeiras on Saturday, 9/12 at 6:30 PM, away from home, for Matchday 27 of the Brasileirão.
