Boca struck first on 29 minutes when Ascacibar put the visitors ahead from Villa's assist. The first half then turned scrappy. Lautaro Giannetti went into the book for Newell's at 42 minutes, Ayrton Costa followed for Boca at 45 minutes, and a home penalty check at the end of the half finished with a no-penalty VAR decision.
Newell's hit back quickly after the restart. Coccaro made it 1-1 in the 50th minute after Guch's assist, and Regiardo then fired the hosts in front at 58:53 with Thomas Rios credited for the setup. Boca responded with changes, bringing on Milton Gimenez just after the hour before Velasco was introduced in the 75th minute.
There was more discipline trouble as Leandro Paredes was shown a yellow card on 67 minutes, and Velasco was also cautioned at 79:51. But Boca's substitute had the final word, scoring at 80:53 from Tomas Aranda's assist to level the score at 2-2. The stats will show a draw, but the summary was shaped by second-half chaos and two rapid momentum swings.
