Match report
Boca Juniors beat Racing Club 3-2 in the Argentine Cup quarter-finals at La Bombonera on Saturday evening. The visitors held on after a second-half collapse to reach the last four, while Racing's run ended despite taking the lead early. It was a match decided in the final quarter.
G. A. Lodico opened the scoring in the nineteenth minute, a neat finish that put the hosts ahead. Racing controlled the first half and by then had built a comfortable cushion. Adrian Martinez equalised for Boca on the stroke of half-time, a goal that shifted the momentum entirely.
The second half belonged to the visitors. E. Valencia scored in the seventy-second and then again in the eightieth to put Boca ahead 1-3. Racing pulled one back in stoppage time from an own goal, but and here's the thing — the result was never really in doubt after Valencia's double.
Boca dominated possession at 73 per cent and created more chances, though their shots accuracy of 38 per cent meant they didn't always test the keeper. Racing managed 27 per cent possession but pressed higher up the pitch, winning 24 aerial duels on level terms. The statistics tell a simple story: the table goes out of the window in these games, but possession rarely lies.
Boca's victory moves them into the semi-finals, where they will face the winner of the other quarter-final tie. Racing finish their cup campaign in disappointment, having looked comfortable before the visitors turned the game around. Valencia's three goals were enough to book his side's place in the next round.
