Boca Juniors Copa de la Liga Win Eases Pressure on Sebastián Battaglia
Convincing Copa de la Liga victory over Sarmiento
Boca Juniors lifted the Copa de la Liga Profesional with a commanding 3-0 victory over Sarmiento on Sunday, easing the pressure on manager Sebastián Battaglia. Goals from Darío Benedetto, Pol Fernández, and Exequiel Zeballos secured the trophy for Boca, their first major title since 2020.
Battaglia's future secure?
Battaglia has faced criticism throughout the season, with many questioning his tactical decisions and team selection. However, the Copa de la Liga triumph has provided him with a much-needed reprieve. The win has strengthened his position as manager and given him the breathing space to continue his project at the helm of one of Argentina's most iconic clubs.
Boca's dominance in the Copa de la Liga
Boca controlled the match from start to finish, creating numerous chances and looking dangerous throughout. Benedetto opened the scoring in the 15th minute with a clinical finish, before Fernández doubled the lead just before half-time. Zeballos sealed the victory with a superb strike in the 70th minute.
The win was a fitting end to a successful Copa de la Liga campaign for Boca, who won six of their seven matches in the competition. The victory also marks a return to form for the club, who have struggled in recent months both domestically and internationally.
Boca's Copa de la Liga triumph is a reminder of their status as one of the most successful clubs in Argentina. The win will give the team and Battaglia confidence as they look to continue their dominance in the league and challenge for the Copa Libertadores, South America's premier club competition.
