Boca Juniors and Independiente del Valle drew 0-0 in the first leg of the playoffs to the round of 16 of the Copa Conmebol Sudamericana. In a match where the Xeneizes survived despite the numerous absences due to not being able to register their reinforcements, such as Gary Medel, Milton Giménez, Brian Aguirre, and Tomás Belmonte, and the injury of Cavani, the result was perfect considering this disadvantage and playing away. Meanwhile, the "Giant Killers" missed a golden opportunity to take the lead to La Bombonera.
