Boca starts season with goalless draw

Boca Juniors were held to a goalless draw in their Apertura opener as goals were in short supply across the league.

Boca took a point from a stalemate at Olimpo, while it was the same result when Estudiantes visited Newell's Old Boys.

An own goal from Gonzalo Bazan was enough for Lanus to win 1-0 at San Lorenzo, while Tigre used a late equaliser from Ramiro Leone to take a point from a 1-1 draw at home to Racing Club, who had led through Teofilo Gutierrez's 25th minute strike.
