Next weekend’s superclásico is perfectly poised after Boca Juniors were unable to find a way past Estudiantes in La Plata and simultaneously in the Monumental, River Plate were making light work of Temperley to reduce the deficit between the two sides to seven points.
League leaders Boca Juniors certainly had chances to kill off Estudiantes’ slim hopes of lifting the title but could not find a breakthrough. However, El Pincha remained a threat throughout and the decision not to award the home side a penalty during the first half sparked a moment of sheer rage in manager Nelson Vivas, prompting him to rip his shirt off before storming down the tunnel.
A third draw in four matches for Boca could see their lead cut to a single point if Newell’s win on Sunday evening.
