With Romero as a figure, Boca eliminated Almagro and went to the quarterfinals of the Copa Argentina

For the knockout stages of the Copa Argentina at the Centenario stadium in the province of San Juan, Boca beat Almagro on penalties after having tied 2-2 in the 90 regulation minutes. In the first half, Xeineize were incredibly superior, something that allowed them to overcome their rival by two goals from a header from Bullaude, recently arrived from Feneyoord in the Netherlands, and, minutes later, with a powerful low shot from Blondel, acquired from Tigre in the last transfer market. The second stage was completely different, as the B Nacional team felt much more comfortable and began to take advantage of their opportunities. From an error in departure of Boca, Silvera got the discount and a few minutes later, with a new mistake of those led by Almirón, Maidana scored the equalizer. Finally, after the end of the match, everything was defined by shots from the penalty spot where, after Sergio Romero tied two penalties, including the final one, those of La Boca got the pass to the quarterfinals and Talleres de Córdoba awaits it. It should be noted that, on Saturday, both Racing and Independiente were eliminated after being defeated by Huracán and Estudiantes.
