Copa Sudamericana – Boca Juniors 1 – 1 Vélez Sársfield

Boca Juniors hosted Argentine champions Vélez Sársfield in the final Copa Sudamericana preliminary first leg for Argentina’s sides on Thursday night, and took  a very early lead through Pablo Mouche to get Alfio Basile’s latest term at the club off to a flying start. They controlled the game thereafter with Vélez looking rather off the pace, but conceded an equaliser in the 80th minute when Víctor Zapata stroked home. If Vélez can do what they’ll be expected to manage  in the fortress of the José Amalfitani, Boca’s latest continental campaign might be over before it’s even begun. The goals aren’t online (at least in embeddable form) as I write this, but I’ll put them up for you on Friday night.
