Boca thrash Newell’s 5-0 at La Bombonera, end three-match winless run | OneFootball

BOCA crushed Newell’s 5-0 at the Bombonera, in matchday 11 of the Clausura Tournament 2025, achieving a triple objective: they returned to victory after three games, took the lead in Zone A of the championship, and entered the direct qualification spots for the group stage of the Copa Libertadores in the Annual Table.

The xeneize team, led by Claudio Úbeda on the bench, as happened in the defeat last weekend against Defensa y Justicia due to health problems of coach Miguel Ángel Russo, won with goals from Milton Giménez twice, Ayrton Costa, Brian Aguirre, and Lautaro Blanco.

Boca leads Zone A of the Clausura thanks to the goal difference with a total of 17 points, the same amount as Unión, Barracas Central, and Estudiantes.

In the Annual Table, perhaps the most relevant for the Xeneize's semester, now accumulates 50 points and ensured to finish the matchday in the qualification zone for the group stage of the next Copa Libertadores, a stage that has not been contested since the 2023 edition.
