SCORE GRAPHIC / VARIOUS OF BOCA PLAYERS STORY: Boca Juniors snatched a 2-1 victory away to Estudiantes de la Plata in the Argentine Primera Division on Sunday (November 2) with a 97th minute penalty winner.  Having missed a penalty in the first half, Exequiel Zeballos redeemed himself with superb strike into the bottom corner to give Boca the lead four minutes after the restart. Estudiantes would equalise 10 minutes later through a penalty of their own which Edwuin Cetre duly dispatched with a chipped finish.  The hosts were then reduced to 10 men two minutes from the end of regulation time after Gabriel Neves was shown a straight red card for a dangerous challenge on Ander Herrera.  The former Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain midfielder then won a late penalty for Boca which Miguel Menrentiel put away to send all three points back to the Argentine capital.  The result sees Boca improve to 23 points, ahead of Union de Santa Fe at the top of Group A by goal difference.  Estudiantes, meanwhile, sit two points behind in fifth.  (Production: Conal Quinn)
