Boca edge closer to Superliga Argentina title

Xinhua,April 02, 2018 Adjust font size:

BUENOS AIRES, April 1 (Xinhua) -- Pablo Perez scored in second-half injury time as Boca Juniors edged closer to the Superliga Argentina title with a 2-1 victory over second-placed Talleres de Cordoba.

Boca striker Walter Bou prodded in the opener at the Bombonera stadium after a mazy run and cross by Cristian Pavon.

Carlos Quintana equalized on the stroke of halftime by nodding in after Junior Arias met Lucas Olaza's floating free-kick with a flicked header.

It took until the 92nd minute for Boca to break the deadlock as Perez thumped a volley past goalkeeper Guido Herrera following Ramon Abila's cross.

The result left Boca nine points clear of Talleres, with third-placed San Lorenzo two points further back. Enditem
