Boca player ratings after the win over Banfield | OneFootball

The analysis of the individual performance and scores of Boca players in the 2-0 victory over Banfield at La Bombonera.

The Xeneize responded again and won an important duel at home to get back into the cup and championship qualifying zone. With the same eleven players who beat Lepra from Mendoza, Boca showed great character and easily surpassed Taladro with goals from the Uruguayans.

Agustín Marchesín (6)

Responded to the few visits from the visiting team, which tested him in more than one situation, although none were of great danger.

Juan Barinaga (8)

Demoted last semester, he earned his place through effort and struggle. Today he had many individual duels, in attacks on his sector of the field. He also attacked well almost all the time.

Lautaro Di Lollo (7)

Like several of his teammates, he earned his place thanks to his regularity and struggle. He almost always responds and it's very difficult to see mistakes on his part.

Marco Pellegrino (7)

As in previous duels, the former Globo footballer again had a complication-free duel with many won aerial and ground duels.

Lautaro Blanco (6)

Without complications, he had a good match on his sector, with some combinations and even a dangerous shot that almost scored in the corner of the rival goalkeeper.

Rodrigo Battaglia (8)

His position is this, as a central midfielder, not as a defender as he was tested for so long. He understands well with Paredes and gives him freedoms that another type of player does not give him.

Leandro Paredes (10)

The figure of this team. He manages the rhythms of the match, in both exit and attack. He recovers frequently, tests from outside, and generates a lot of danger with his stopped ball. He made a great pass in the previous play of Merentiel's goal.

Brian Aguirre (8)

He gained ground in the team based on a very interesting performance in attack, with some support in the midfield in the retreat. He made the assist for the first Xeneize goal, fighting to the end and leaving Merentiel alone in front of the goalkeeper.

Carlos Palacios (6)

He lost a bit of responsibility with Paredes in the team and not having to go down to look for the ball. Today he was more committed, with several interventions and arrivals to the bottom.

Miguel Merentiel (7)

He missed a great chance in the first half against Sanguinetti, but he recovered in the second half by taking advantage of an Aguirre pass that left him alone in front of the Taladro goalkeeper.

Edinson Cavani (7)

Better than in previous duels, he pivoted and combined several plays throughout the match, to close the note with the return to the goal after taking advantage of a deviation that left him alone in front of the empty goal.

Williams Alarcón, Milton Delgado and Luís Advíncula (-)

They entered with the match already advanced. They did not make a difference against a rival who was already surrendered.

Exequiel Zeballos and Alan Velasco (-)

They entered with the desire to liquidate things. They had a good counterattack that Changuito wasted. It's already two games in a row with a football and attitude change. They need to add more minutes.

Miguel Ángel Russo (8)

He repeated the team that beat Independiente Rivadavia with authority in Mendoza. The emotional aspect was also important, because his team today showed another face, dominating in several stages of the match and winning with tranquility to chain the second consecutive victory in the tournament.
