Third straight victory for Boca

The team led by Carlos Duro had a brilliant game in Mar del Plata

In the city of Mar del Plata, Peñarol made its presentation as a local against the Xeneize team. The Milrayitas, still without Al Thornton or Mogga Lado, fought as hard as they could, but ran out of physical strength in the second half. In an almost perfect game, Carlos Duro’s men took advantage of what was impossible for the locals to overcome. With construction in both sectors of the field, Boca won the match with a resounding 92 to 72.

The first meeting showed some parity between both sides. Boca’s best came from what Raven Barber and José Vildoza did. Pepe also starred in the second half, along with Leo Mainoldi and Marcos Mata. Exploiting counterattacks after a steal in the front line, as well as physical differences in stationary, Boca built its advantage. They finally celebrated their first away game, adding their third straight win.
