Match report
Boca Juniors left the Libertadores de América with a 1-0 win after Facundo Ezequiel Herrera scored in the 88th minute from Sebastián Villa's assist.
Neither side scored before the interval. Boca's Lautaro Di Lollo was booked on 20 minutes, while Independiente's Iván Marcone went into the book in first-half stoppage time. It was 0-0 at half-time.
The second half stayed goalless until Boca made two changes, sending on Sebastián Villa on 60 minutes and Enner Valencia on 66. Independiente also moved players around, including a two-man change on 86 minutes, but Herrera's strike two minutes later decided it. Boca then had Malcon Braida booked in the second minute of stoppage time.

Shots on target were 5-4, xG was 1.32 to 1.21, and Boca made 5 saves to Independiente's 3. Fouls finished 17-14, and Boca were offside twice to Independiente's none.
