River Plate has to achieve a good result against Estudiantes de La Plata to make it difficult for Boca Juniors in the fight for first place in the Argentine Superliga, and Rafael Santos Borré is aware of that. In the 21st minute of the match, the Colombian forward put Marcelo Gallardo's team ahead with a subtle finish that just entered the rival's goal.
After finding himself one-on-one with Mariano Andújar, Rafael Santos Borré kicked with his right leg and the ball passed between the legs of the goalkeeper of Estudiantes de La Plata. The ball, having made contact with the goalkeeper, went towards the 'Pincharrata' goal at a slow pace, and shortly after entering it, it was cleared by the side defender Facundo Mura.
Although it was initially doubted whether Rafael Santos Borré's goal would be validated due to Mura's tackle, the referee Darío Herrera was closely following the action and gave his approval. In this way, River Plate took the lead against a difficult rival like Estudiantes de La Plata in the final stretch of the Argentine Superliga.
