{{cquote|For many, Gimnasia y Esgrima de La Plata did not deserve to win their match against Boca Juniors. The argument put forward for this is chance. Boca's goalkeeper faced imminent danger, and in two of them, the agile La Plata players managed to achieve their goals. Boca, in turn, provoked similar situations, albeit more frequently, without managing to beat Scarpone, as his only fall was due to an unfortunate play by back Di Gianno. This means that the losers did not score a single goal. However, all things being equal, Boca should have won. Despite what has been said, let us recognize that Gimnasia's two goals were legally awarded and were not due to errors by the young goalkeeper Mena, as any other goalkeeper, put in his position, would have done no more.<ref>[https://www.elgrafico.com.ar/articulo/las-cronicas-de-el-grafico/32406/1930-%C2%A1gimnasia-campeon! 1930. ¡Gimnasia campeón!] on ''El Gráfico'', 29 Aug 2018</ref>


During the first 16 minutes of the first half, the La Plata team, displaying commendable enthusiasm, moved with agility and knew how to pressure the opposing defense. After this period, Boca began to impose their class and continued to lay siege to Scarpone's goal. The goal, although due to a mistake by Dí Gianno, was just compensation for the team that had demonstrated greater merit.
The first minutes of the match showed the two teams struggling to overcome each other. Gimnasia's goalkeeper Felipe Scarpone was the keyplayer of the first half but he couldn't avoid Boca Juniors to score the first goal by Paraguayan midfielder [[Manuel Fleitas Solich]].<ref name=gelp/> During the initial 16 minutes of the first half, the La Plata team, displaying commendable enthusiasm, moved with agility and knew how to pressure the opposing defense.

Once the game restarted, Boca continued on the offensive until the 10th minute, when a rally broke out in front of their own goal, which miraculously escaped collapse. This encouraged the La Plata crowd, who saw a chance to tie the game. A strong wind then began to blow in favor of the latter, and while Boca's defense made real efforts to move the light ball into the opponent's half, Gimnasia y Esgrima's defense, well aware of the advantage offered by the wind, opted for long clearances. Thus, with a single shot, they reached Mena's goal, where things were taking on a continuing danger. This situation had to bear fruit, and the tie, which had been hinted at, came. Boca pressed again, and, finding themselves on the offensive, suffered another fall.

GELP showed their best version on the second half, where the team scored for the 1–1 draw after Ismael Morgada ran with the ball to the goal line while dribbling rivals Adolfo Pedemonte and Ludovico Bidoglio. Morgada passed the ball to forward Martín Malianni who scored with no opposition. <ref name=gelp/> Boca pressed again, and, finding themselves on the offensive, suffered another fall.<ref name=elgraf/> With 20 minutes left, Morgada dribbled Bidoglio again and made another pass from the goal line, received by Maliani who scored his second goal for the definitive 2–1 win. The 5,000 ''Triperos'' at River Plate stadium started a huge celebration.<ref name=gelp/>
Boca launched its offensive again. It persisted with its desperate attacks. Bidoglio pushed forward; the entire team, except for Strada and Mena, began to act in the opposing half. Scarpone's goal was about to fall at any moment. It seemed inevitable; but the players defending it refused to give up. They resisted the attacks and even attempted attacks that went deep because they encountered no major obstacles. Boca's dominance was evident.

'''player analysisis'''
boca outplayed its opponent with its defense. Assuming the two teams' forward lines were of equal capacity, the advantage in terms of defense was in favor of the losers. Their men were more alert, clearing and supporting, while the opponents limited themselves to clearing situations without linking up plays. This defense lacked figures like Fleitas, Solich, and Bidoglio, who put in formidable performances, to the point of being named the best man on the field. This lack of play was partly compensated for by the enthusiasm they displayed throughout the match, although they failed to match the opponents' pace. Regarding the agile lines, Boca's best performance was undoubtedly their left wing. Evaristo was always determined, but without luck, and on the right wing, they performed poorly, with Penella performing better in the first half than in the second. If Alberino and Chorro were Boca's best forwards, Varallo and Morgada were Gimnasia y Esgrima's best, with Malianni having the honor of scoring both goals. Curell and Díaz weren't as good as their teammates, the latter being better than the former.


=== Media coverage ===
Gimnasia's defense isn't in tune with its forward line. Scarpone, the veteran goalkeeper, continues to be a valuable asset and knows how to assume the direction he exerts from his goal over his teammates, showing them the way. But the attacking quintet is actually good. Curell is the only veteran of the five, and that's why the combination isn't more effective. In contrast, his four teammates are young, enthusiastic, and play well. No one can dispute that. Given the current state of Boca's forward line, it's no better than its opponent from Sunday. Varallo and Morgada are two men who know their football. Malianni has a clear vision of the goal, and Díaz is another capable player. Combined with their power, that line has played in this tournament with the incentive of winning the championship.
