Gabriel Carabajal scored a stunning goal for a 1-0 lead of Argentinos Juniors over Boca in the Professional League.

Argentinos Juniors must win against Boca to equal the top of the Professional League table with Atlético Tucumán. For now, the 'Red Bug' achieves its goal thanks to a great goal that unleashed joy at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.

At 23 minutes, Gabriel Carabajal received the ball in the center of the field and advanced. Then, he eluded Jorman Campuzano and, despite Pol Fernández's attempt to block him, the player from the local team took a strong shot.

The ball nestled in the corner of the goal defended by Agustín Rossi, to the regret of the 'Xeneize' players who were not accurate in marking. However, the match is just beginning and Boca Juniors is pushing forward to get the equalizer.
