Darío Herrera marked the end of Boca vs. River and everyone at La Bombonera started the celebration. On the field, in the technical area, in the stands, and outside the stadium, they celebrated the important victory in the Superclásico. The joy came thanks to the goal scored by Darío Benedetto in the 65th minute.
While 'Pipa' Benedetto and his teammates, on the substitutes' bench, gathered to await the final whistle of the referee, the contrast was Marcelo Gallardo, who showed a gesture of disappointment at the setback. The truth is that, after the end of the Professional League match, the '9' and the substitutes ran to the field to share with those who finished the actions.
On the grass of the Boca's stadium, it was all laughter and hugs to express the excitement of defeating the 'Millonarios'. They added chants and jumps to celebrate the three points that put the team in the fight for the title.
At the same time, in the stands, the 'Boca World' was infected by what they saw on the field with their idols. Flags waving, musical instruments at full blast, and the traditional songs to highlight the victory and, by the way, remind River that they have not been able to beat the 'blue and gold' in the current season.
Outside La Bombonera, fireworks exploded as part of the celebration for the success in the most anticipated clash of the day in Argentina. For several minutes, fireworks accompanied the fans and players.
To close and amidst the controversy that arose about their figures, the images of the official transmission of the classic showed the meeting between Hugo Ibarra and Marcelo Gallardo. The 'Negro' hugged the 'Muñeco' and offered him some words before saying goodbye.

The team led by 'Negro' Ibarra has accumulated a total of 32 points to climb to fourth place in the Professional League standings. In this way, the Boca team is just two points behind the leader Atlético Tucumán with 34 points. On the other hand, River is in seventh place with 29 points.
