The two hundred and eighty-eighth episode of Hand Of Pod sees Sam and Andrés meet to discuss a weekend of Superliga action which saw the title race all but ended by Pablo Pérez’s 92nd minute winner for Boca Juniors against second placed Talleres. Why did he argue with Boca’s fans immediately afterwards? Why didn’t Carlos Tevez play that game? These are among the questions we answer. Elsewhere, River Plate’s resurgence continues – the giants are now just two points off the Copa Sudamericana places, a situation that would have seemed unthinkable a few weeks ago. And we bid farewell, for the moment at least, to Arsenal de Sarandí’s participation in the top flight of Argentine football; they were relegated after Patronato’s 3-0 win against Rosario Central on Sunday.
