Estadio Diego Armando Maradona: A second-half strike by Colombian defender Alvaro Angulo fired Independiente to a 1-0 away victory over Boca Juniors in the quarterfinals of Argentina's Primera Division Apertura tournament on Monday.

Angulo broke the deadlock just after the hour at La Bombonera when he intercepted Carlos Palacios' clearance and darted into the box before thumping a left-footed drive into the far corner. Independiente controlled the match thereafter to set up a home semifinal clash against Huracán, reports Xinhua.

"We knew that tonight we could make our fans immensely happy, and we gave our all to ensure that would happen," defender Kevin Lomonaco said after the match. "We have to enjoy this victory, and then we'll focus on trying to advance further."
