After changing their attacking line, Boca Juniors were able to get on the board in the 85th minute through an inverted triangle pass down the right from winger Gigliotti, which was played unmarked just outside the top of the box by front man Elvis, who hit a powerful worldie into the top right-hand corner of the dead center of the net.
Luckily, goalkeeper Marcos Diaz was highly concentrated and managed to get the ball off the line with a timely diving sideways tackle.
With this inverted triangle back to threaten a shot on goal from Boca Juniors, Velarde is also starting to be wary of the opposition's baseline back passes.
In the 89th minute, looking to go into injury time, Boca Juniors went back to their old tricks, with striker Juan Martinez going down the right and inverting a triangle pass, ready to pass the ball back to midfielder Castellani, who had inserted himself in the center and was drilling into the opening at the top of the box, for a front-facing shot.
Hurricanes, after all, the overall strength of the team in the A B, after a long time by Boca Juniors bombardment, everyone is not only physically and mentally exhausted, the reaction is also to slow down a lot of the front of the penalty area at this time there is really no one to defend the loophole, as long as the Castellani received the ball, no one interfered with a shot on goal, it is entirely possible to cause a goal, equalize the score.
Then Hurricane Athletics will collapse on its own.
At this critical moment, Velarde, who had already returned to the penalty area, as if he had known beforehand that the opponent would make such an inverted triangle pass, suddenly rushed out and grabbed the ball before Castellani received it, and made a flying interception, successfully shoveling the ball away and destroying it.
"Nice shot!"
Mario Binko on the sidelines couldn't help but clap a little and shout out to Velarde for this crucial shovel tackle.
The crucial shoveling by Velarde not only disrupted Castellani's catch and shot, but also shoveled the ball to his own striker Milla.
Milla caught the ball, turned, and tripped and sprinted in one fluid motion. Hurricane Athletic played a quick counterattack down the line, and although Alavi's shot failed to score in the end, it forced opposing goalkeeper Orion to punt the ball off the line for a corner kick.
In this game, Boca Juniors gained a lot of corners through frantic attacks, but none of them resulted in a goal, the reason is that the Hurricanes Athletic team's system of three center backs is too dominant in terms of height.
On the flip side, Hurricanes Athletic didn't get as many corners as Boca Juniors, but they were a decent threat every time.
This has become a great means for Hurricane Athletics to potentially score goals.
This time it was no different, seeing that a corner was awarded in front of them, the three center backs with better headers, Mancinelli, Santiago Echeverria and Elamspey, all came together in the opponent's box to take part in the corner, leaving Velarde alone in the midfield to prevent Boca Juniors' counterattacks.
Giman Mandarino then took a corner kick and Hurricanes center back Mancinelli leaped high in the Boca box and managed to grab the first point with a lobbed header that smashed the ball hard into the Boca Juniors' goal.
The distance was so close that even the national goalkeeper Orion, who had once been selected for the Argentine national team, could do nothing but subconsciously wave his hand and, without touching anything, watched the ball fly into the goal.
It was a moment that drove even the TV commentators, who had been favoring Boca Juniors, crazy:
"Goooooooooooooooooooooooooal..."
"The ball is in!!!"
"Hurricane Athletics!"
"They scored again!"
"Second goal!"
"Instead of conceding a goal, they rode the momentum and scored a second goal to take a 2-0 lead over giants Boca Juniors at the Candy Box Stadium!"
"Remember number 2 Mancinelli, it was he who gave Boca Juniors a hammer blow with his header."
"Remember also No. 33 Alan Velarde, who was the one who just made the crucial shovel tackle that not only broke up the Boca Juniors attack, but also caused Hurricanes Athletic to counterattack and get this corner kick for Mancinelli's header."
"With only ten minutes left in the game, can Boca Juniors pull off two goals in a row and salvage their dignity as world-class giants?"
"I think it's hard!"
"No. 33 Velarde, though he looked young and nervous when he first came on the field, was broken by Gigliotti with a dumping bull's-eye in one shot."
"But now as the game went on, Velarde has fully adapted to the rhythm of the game and is playing more and more solidly, not at all like a 21-year-old. It was very difficult for Boca Juniors to threaten the goal through the Hurricanes Athletic midfield."
"The point is, there was very little time left on the clock and Hurricane Athletic was up by not one goal, but two."
"In soccer, a two-goal lead can already be considered a lockout. What's more, the time left for Boca Juniors now, even counting injury time, is already only a few minutes."
In the stands, in front of the TV, all the Hurricanes fans went crazy too. Those fans who didn't go to the game because they felt like they were going to lose were at home pounding their feet and regretting it.
Both sides are in the capital, the Candy Box Stadium is not far away, only more than ten kilometers, but the result was not able to witness such a great game, those who had the conditions to go but did not go to the fans, simply regret want to hit the wall.
As for Dahlia, Bonnie Fashaw and others who were there to watch the game and are still part of the team, they were so excited they couldn't contain themselves.
It's a thrill to participate in the dragon slaying saga that is so exciting it makes your scalp tingle.
Inside the stadium, all the Hurricanes players went crazy, all flocking to the Boca Juniors corner, pinning down the goal scorer Mancinelli on the ground and celebrating wildly, even including the coaches, teammates, and substitutes who rushed over from the bench area.
2-0 with only a few minutes left on the clock and everyone is already excited to the point of goosebumps.
Everyone knew that victory was not far away. With just a few more minutes of defense, they would be able to create a dragon slaying miracle, a super cold goal of a second grade team toppling a first grade powerhouse.
So not only are they celebrating, they are using the excuse to delay the game.
Naturally, Velarde was no exception; the thrill of participating in the slaying of dragons was truly so exciting that even at his mental age of 36, he couldn't help himself.
The Hurricane Athletic celebrations lasted more than half a minute, and the anxious Boca Juniors players complained to the referee before he stopped them and returned to their own half of the field to restart the game.
Boca Juniors are ready to go all in and go crazy.
But that's when Mario Binko made another change.
After using a frantic gamble against the run of play to get his second goal, he calmly removed a striker for a defender and ordered Lucas to withdraw to the back and change to a 4231, which all of a sudden became a solid defensive formation again.
Lucas swept ahead, with the solid Velarde playing behind him to assist in defense, leaving the Boca Juniors attack in the middle of the field with nothing to do.
And with an extra wingback, plus two wingbacks and two fullbacks to assist in defense, Boca Juniors' side attacks weren't as smooth as before.
Although Boca Juniors attacked like crazy in the last few minutes, the Hurricanes' generals, who had high morale and determination, eventually held off the giant's onslaught and didn't even let Boca score a single goal. Boca even paid the price of a direct red card for one player in injury time, but could not break the Hurricanes Athletic Team.
And the 3-minute injury time referee dragged it to 5 minutes, can't say he didn't take care of Boca Juniors' status as a powerhouse, and already the emotions of the home fans.
But even so, Boca Juniors failed to score even a single goal in injury time. In the end, Athletic Hurricanes won 2-0 away to A-League giants Boca Juniors and advanced to the last 16 of the Copa Argentina.
One commentator was even moved to tears when the referee blew the whistle for the end:
"The referee finally blew the whistle for the end of the game and Hurricane Athletics won."
"The Hurricanes, from the second division, who slayed a dragon and advanced to the last sixteen of the Argentine Cup by surprisingly defeating Boca Juniors 2-0 in their 1/16 final showdown at the Candy Box Stadium, the home of Boca Juniors, in front of more than 20,000 Boca Juniors die-hard fans."
"They shut out Boca Juniors, holding the world-class giants who have won countless A-League titles, the Copa Libertadores, and the Toyota Cup without scoring a single goal on their home turf."
"The great Hurricanes, the great Mario Binko, they worked wonders."
"Hurricanes head coach Mario Binko caught Boca Juniors off-guard with a series of eye-popping changes that resulted in a brilliant result."
"It's a great dragon-slaying saga, a superb cold one."
"Tomorrow's TV and newspaper headlines will be dominated by the Hurricanes."
"There is no way a Hurricanes team like this, with 10 promotion places available in League Two this year, will not be promoted."
"Next year, we will definitely see them on the A-League stage. Let's see if any other A-League giants besides Boca Juniors fall under the butcher's knife of the Hurricanes."
All the Hurricanes fans at the scene and in front of the TV set, all went crazy celebrating, and the coaches, team doctors, staff, and substitutes who had already waited on the sidelines all excitedly dashed into the field to celebrate wildly with the players and coaches who were playing on the field.
As for the Boca Juniors players, they were all downcast and listless, unable to face the home fans.
What made them even more solid was that some of the home fans also applauded the winning Hurricane Athletic team. It was certainly a slap in the face.
Hurricanes Athletic, on the other hand, can proudly leave the Candy Box Stadium with a brilliant victory to kick off their 2014 A-League play-off campaign.
With this brilliant victory, I believe Hurricanes Athletic will be able to succeed in getting promoted to the first division after this year's A.B. play-offs.
Whether it's club executives, coaches, players, or fans, everyone is convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt.
Even Boca Juniors couldn't stop the Hurricanes, let alone any other second division team.
