بوکا جونیورز مقابل ریورپلیت

Boca Juniors won the Superclásico 1-0 at La Bombonera, and River Plate played most of it a man down and the last stretch with nine. The visitors lost a defender early in the first half and never got level. Referee Nicolás Ramírez first waved away a foul by Lucas Martínez Quarta on Miguel Merentiel. VAR called him back, and the defender was sent off as the last man. Lautaro Di Lollo then headed in a Sebastián Villa corner in the 27th minute, the only goal of the afternoon. In the 34th minute of the second half Gonzalo Montiel got a straight red for a hard challenge on Lautaro Blanco. He then made gestures at the home crowd. Boca hit the post against the nine men. River's players argued that Leandro Paredes should have gone for a second yellow, and that a possible penalty on Nicolás Otamendi was not reviewed. This was matchday 15 of the Clausura. Boca Juniors are second in Zona A, three points behind Instituto, and can take the annual table by beating Defensa y Justicia. River Plate fell to eighth.
