Sunday’s matches saw both River and Boca lose – the former in circumstances rather more pathetic than the latter, with another truly chaotic performance – whilst Huracán edged out Godoy Cruz and Racing got a 4-1 win over Arsenal to match the score of local rivals Independiente the previous day. All the scores and scorers are here (apologies – I was at a birthday party last night), as well as the usual Monday night goal video. Just read on…
