Week three in the Argentine Apertura started to see the cream of the crop rise to the top and a contender really start to hit the crapper.

Vélez Sarsfield took advantage of a missed call in order to cash in a 2-0 win against reigning champs Argentinos Juniors. Leandro Somosa cashed in on the errant penaltly call.  In the defense of Rafael Furchi, his line judge did not see the call while Furchi did see the collision in the box.

Meanwhile Rogelio Funes Mori scored a brace propelling River Plate to join Ricardo Gareca's side to the top of the standings beating Independiente 3-2 at El Monumental.  "The Bison" (as some fans of the team want to call him- reference Juan "Buffalo" Funes) Funes Mori scored two goals in the first 20 minutes of the match as Los Millonarios had to hold on in the final minutes of the match in order to earn the three points.  So far this tournament, the former FC Dallas youth product has scored four goals in the first three matches of the season.

Meanwhile the Claudio Borghi era at Boca Juniors is getting worse everyday.  This weekend they were the victims of a huge upset at the hands of newcomers All Boys.  Emanuel Perea and Mauro Matos were the offensive sparks for an Albo side that left Boca perplexed and clueless on the pitch.

Meanwhile Nicolás Cambiasso, brother of former River Plate and current Inter midfielder Estaban Cambiasso earned a clean sheet against the Xeneize.  In the process they also earned their first win against Boca in over 30 years.

Claudio Borghi is officially on the hot seat.  He also announced after the match that he might leave if Boca do not win next weekend at La Bombonera.
