Boca Juniors play Nacional in the second leg of the round of 16 of the 2023 Copa Libertadores. Xeneize-Club took the lead 11 minutes into the first half when Miguel Merentiel headed in from a precise assist Luis Advincula from the right side of the field. The Peruvian’s action aroused the admiration of Mariano Closs and Gustavo López, who were in charge of televising on ESPN.
“What a center, isn’t it? How often does it happen in Argentine football, but how many centers are placed at the head or at the foot for the scorers,” commented the famous broadcaster. For his part, his partner added that this was due to the “hierarchy of years of (from Advíncula) shooting centers from this side”.
