El Blaugrana and El Xeneize finished tied 1-1 in regular time, which is why the winner was decided on penalties. Following a goalless first half, both got back to the field agressively for the remaining 45 minutes. Ferran Jutgla put Xavi‘s side in front with a fantastic strike before Exequiel Zeballos cancelled out Barca’s lead. In the shootout, Boca emerged victorious 4-2 as all their shooters were on target while goalkeeper Agustin Rossi stepped up to save one penalty, and Guillem missed another.
