Boca’s one x one: Xeneize’s scores against Tigre
- Sergio Romero: 6. He had just one in the first half and he was perfect.
- Lucas Blondel: 6. Good for Lucas. Correct on both sides. He attacked well and defended perfectly.
- Cristian Lema: 7. Another good game. It gives the impression that, when he is like this, he is impassable.
- Nicolás Figal: 6. Zorro’s game was correct. However, he had problems in several starts that could have complicated the game.
- Lautaro Blanco: 7. Very good debut. Very good in defense and attack. He had several very good defensive crosses. Saracchi will have an interesting competition.
- Luis Advíncula: 6. Even match. Spicy on the offensive side. He got on very well with Blondel. Boca’s most regular player.
- Pol Fernández: 6. Better second half than first. But he improved the performance of it in every way. In the complement, at times, he managed Boca’s rhythm
- Mauricio Benítez: 7. Excellent match. A five that Boca needed. Good in relays, with the ball and in cuts. I loved.
- Kevin Zenón: 7. Another good game. This boy plays well. At times he is the owner of Boca’s game. Good reinforcement.
- Miguel Merentiel: 9. Self-generated goal and assist to Benedetto. It is a beast.
- Darío Benedetto: 7. Goal and good feelings. We have to recover it.
