Title winners Boca end season unbeaten

Boca finished the Apertura championship unbeaten with 12 wins and seven draws, scoring 25 goals and conceding only six. They extended their unbeaten run to 29 matches, which includes the final 10 of last season.

Cvitanich took his goal tally to five as Boca's leading scorer, six behind the championship's leading marksman Ruben Ramirez, who could increase his total when Godoy Cruz play their last match away to Atletico Rafaela on Monday.

Juan Sebastian Veron received a standing ovation at Estudiantes' home match against Union, which they won 2-0 with goals from striker Mauro Boselli and defender Cristian Cellay.

It was originally going to be the former Argentina midfielder's last match as he had said earlier in the season he would retire at the end of the Apertura.

Four teams will be vying on Monday for Argentina's fifth berth in next year's Copa Libertadores to join Boca, 2011 Clausura champions Velez Sarsfield, Lanus and Arsenal in South America's elite club competition.
