Miguel Merentiel struck late as Boca Juniors continued their improved form in Argentina's Primera Division with a 1-0 away win over Argentinos Juniors.
Merentiel put the visitors ahead in the 89th minute by sliding home a first-time effort at the near post after running on to Luis Advincula's cross from the left flank, reports Xinhua.
The result leaves Boca 10th in the 28-team Primera Division standings with 24 points from 17 games, a point ahead of 11th-placed Argentinos Juniors.
After a poor start to the season, Boca have now won three of their past four league games.
