Independiente Rivadavia is the second best first in Libertadores after their 2-1 win over Bolívar. The Lepra closed the first international semester of their history with an agonizing victory over Bolívar in Santa Cruz de la Sierra. Berti set up an alternative team, with several habitual substitutes from the start, and the team responded by achieving the initial advantage with a goal from Leonel Bucca. Bolívar, forced to win to stay in the competition, equalized thanks to the Uruguayan forward of 39 years, Martín Cauteruccio. The celeste came out to chase it with everything but left spaces that the Lepra Mendocina knew how to take advantage of, recovering the advantage with the run and goal of Sebastián Villa.
