Racing was left with the desire to get into the semifinals of the Copa Libertadores. The academy could not maintain the advantage of the first leg and was eliminated from the tournament after losing 2-0 to Boca Juniors.
The albiceleste team had a superb performance by Gabriel Arias, but it was not enough to settle in the round of the best four. Sebastián Beccacece spoke after the meeting and acknowledged that the xeneizes deserved the victory.
“They were far superior, you have to accept it. Boca was a fair winner. The road was worth it, we crossed it with great euphoria. The rival surpassed us widely and in every aspect“, assured the DT of Racing. Of course, he highlighted the attitude of his pupils.”We sow a cup seed that will grow year by year“.

Boca was able to quickly get ahead and even things out on aggregate. “In general, we could not overcome the rival. He hit first and it was solid. I insist: I value the route and the group of footballers who invited us to dream“.
Beccacece also appreciated the support of the fans, who were excited to reach the title. “It hurts our souls but we didn’t have a good night. I want to thank the people who accompanied us day by day in this dream. We would have liked to end differently. You have to get up and continue“.
Finally, the coach avoided getting into the controversial foul within the area that could give them a penalty but that the VAR ruled out. “I haven’t seen it. I think the referee had a good performance. It is good that Boca has passed. They had superiority in their field and we in ours “.
