River Plate won and won the classic match against Boca Juniors this Saturday (21), at the Bombonera, in Buenos Aires, for the Argentine Championship. The goal that made it 1-0 was scored by Lanzini, former Fluminense and Premier League player, in the 19th minute of the first half. On the home side, Advíncula hit the crossbar hard and almost made things equal.

In addition to the victory itself, Marcelo Gallardo’s team also broke their rival’s big record. After all, the Xeneize family has not known what it feels like to lose with their fans for almost a year. The last time it happened was on October 1, 2023, conceding 2-0 to River, in the Argentine League Cup. Since then, 15 wins and five draws in 20 games.

River Plate did not come with full strength and decided to leave their main players aside to target the Libertadores. On Tuesday (24), they host Colo-Colo, from Chile, in the second leg of the quarter-finals of the competition, needing a win to reach the semi-finals – the first leg was a 1-1 draw in Santiago.
