It was unintentional. Boca Juniors advanced to the semi-finals of the Copa Libertadores after beating Racing Club on penalties. Beyond the result and the celebrations of the Xeneize team, the television cameras captured a funny moment between striker Edinson Cavani and Peruvian full-back Luis Advíncula before the game began.
The pictures show Uruguayan goalscorer “Bolt” being hit in the face with a ball during warm-up at the Cilindro de Avellaneda. It should be noted that both footballers were regulars in Jorge Almirón’s squad.
