BUENOS AIRES – Boca Juniors goalkeeper Roberto Abbondanzieri saved two penalties and then fired the winner himself as the Argentines beat Mexico’s UNAM 4-3 in a shootout to win the Copa Sudamericana for the second year running on Sunday.
The tie went to penalties after the second leg ended in a 1-1 draw at the Bombonera, the same result as the first leg in Mexico earlier this month.
