Boca took the lead through Walter Erviti five minutes before the break, but just seconds into the second period, Guillermo Burdisso had brought the hosts level and they then led through Mauro Obolo's 54th minute strike.

Cristian Chavez rescued a draw for Boca 20 minutes from time.

Federico Higuain struck in the 46th minute to give Colon Santa Fe a 1-0 win at Godoy Cruz, moving them up to fourth place, level on points with third-placed Lanus.
