The second will have been good for the Matador. Ten days after wearing the Boca Juniors jersey for the first time in competition, which he joined this summer, Edinson Cavani opened his goal counter for his second match with his new club.
On the night of Friday to Saturday, the former Paris Saint-Germain striker (2013-20) made the boiling Bombonera roar by scoring his team’s second goal in Boca’s victory against Platense (3-1 ), on the first day of the second phase of the Argentine Championship.

“I was looking forward to scoring my first goal here”
Upon receiving a distant cross from Exequiel Zeballos, the 36-year-old Uruguayan proved that he remained an outstanding surface fox, being forgotten at the far post to poke his head. “It was a great emotion. I was looking forward to scoring my first goal here. I am very happy”, he savored after the meeting with olé.
The former PSG goal record holder (200 goals), number 10 on the back, is launching his new adventure in Argentina perfectly, probably his last at the top level. Welcomed like a king by the Bombonera last week, Cavani had left Valencia free during the summer transfer window after only one season in Spain (7 goals in 28 matches).
