Boca Juniors Unable to Secure an Advantage at La Bombonera Against Palmeiras in Semifinal First Leg
Boca Juniors couldn't secure an advantage at La Bombonera and ended up with a (0-0) draw against a Palmeiras side that returns home for the decisive match to determine their passage to the Copa Libertadores final.
Despite having several scoring opportunities, including multiple attempts by Edinson Cavani and a disallowed goal, the Xeneize team left the first leg empty-handed.
It's worth noting that Boca Juniors hasn't reached the final of the continental competition since that traumatic match at the Santiago Bernabéu. If they fail to win the coveted trophy this time, it will mark 16 years without conquering the title, as their last victory came in 2007.
