Boca Juniors Returns to Winning Ways with a Last-Gasp Goal Against Lanús

Boca Juniors finally returned to winning form, snatching a crucial 1-0 victory against Lanús in a dramatic encounter at their home ground, the Bombonera. This hard-fought win puts an end to a frustrating streak of three consecutive draws in the Clausura Tournament, providing a much-needed boost for the team.

The lone goal of the match came in the dying moments of stoppage time, with Tomás Belmonte scoring in the 90+3rd minute. Belmonte, who previously played for Lanús, invoked the 'ley del ex', a common footballing term referring to a former player scoring against their old club, to secure the win for Boca Juniors. His decisive strike was the difference between the two sides, leaving the home crowd in raptures.

The match also saw participation from several key players. Carlos Palacios and Williams Alarcón remained on the bench for Boca Juniors throughout the entire game. Meanwhile, Matías Sepúlveda entered the field for Lanús in the second half, playing 21 minutes for the visiting team before the final whistle.
