Boca Juniors Fights Back to Defeat Godoy Cruz at Home

Boca Juniors staged a thrilling comeback to defeat Godoy Cruz 3-2 at La Bombonera on Sunday, securing their first victory of the season. The victory was a much-needed boost for Boca, who had dropped their first two games of the campaign.

Godoy Cruz started the match strongly, taking a 2-0 lead within the first half hour. Facundo Pereyra opened the scoring in the 11th minute, capitalizing on a defensive lapse from Boca. Just 19 minutes later, Thomas Rodriguez doubled the visitors' lead with a well-taken free kick.

Boca, however, refused to be defeated and responded with a flurry of attacks in the second half. The pressure finally paid off in the 64th minute when Dario Benedetto pulled one back for the home side. The momentum shifted completely, and Boca continued to pour forward in search of an equalizer.

Their persistence was rewarded in the 80th minute when Exequiel Zeballos leveled the score. The young winger unleashed a powerful shot from the edge of the penalty area that left the Godoy Cruz goalkeeper with no chance.

With the momentum firmly in their grasp, Boca continued to attack and were rewarded once again in the 86th minute. Substitute Luca Langoni scored the winning goal with a clinical finish, sending the La Bombonera into raptures.

The comeback victory is a testament to the fighting spirit of Boca Juniors. Despite falling behind early on, the team refused to give up and ultimately emerged victorious. The win will provide a much-needed confidence boost as they look to climb the league table.

For Godoy Cruz, the defeat is a bitter blow. They had started the season brightly but failed to hold onto their lead against a determined Boca side.

Boca Juniors will be looking to build on this victory when they travel to face Lanús next weekend. Godoy Cruz, meanwhile, will be hoping to bounce back from their defeat when they host Talleres in Mendoza.
