Estadio Presidente Perón witnessed a hard-fought 1-1 draw between Racing Club and Boca Juniors in a tightly contested Liga Profesional Argentina fixture. The hosts drew first blood early on, with M. Rojo finding the back of the net in the 9th minute to put Racing ahead. However, Boca Juniors responded swiftly, leveling the score just before the half-hour mark thanks to a well-taken goal from Miguel Merentiel, assisted by L. Flores. Both sides saw yellow cards throughout the match, with A. Costa and M. Martinez booked in quick succession early on, followed by E. Cannavo for Racing and T. Belmonte for Boca later in the game. A flurry of substitutions in the second half failed to break the deadlock, as both teams battled for supremacy in a match that ultimately ended all square.
