Alexander Díaz's extraordinary goal seals Riestra's stunning 3-0 win over Boca

Alexander Díaz etched his name into the annals of the Torneo Clausura 2026 with a goal of breathtaking quality, contributing to Deportivo Riestra's stunning 3-0 triumph over Boca Juniors. The remarkable strike, initiated from the edge of his own penalty area, has been hailed as one of the championship's finest goals.

The match, held at the Estadio Guillermo Laza, unfolded with unexpected drama. Riestra, playing their first match of the season, took an early lead in the 7th minute through a Braian Sánchez header. The advantage was doubled in the 23rd minute by Antony Alonso, also with a header, leaving a Boca side that fielded a mix of starters and reserves struggling to respond. Boca's attempts to break through were repeatedly thwarted by Riestra's goalkeeper, Ignacio Arce.

The defining moment of the first half arrived in the 38th minute. Following a Boca corner, Díaz seized possession near his own goal line. He embarked on a solo run, carrying the ball over 70 meters upfield. Spotting Boca's goalkeeper, Álvaro Montero, off his line, Díaz executed a delicate chip shot, sending the ball soaring over the Colombian keeper and into the net for a truly unforgettable goal.

This spectacular individual effort capped off a dominant first-half performance by Riestra, securing a seemingly insurmountable lead and setting the stage for a memorable victory against one of Argentina's most prominent clubs.
