Two goals from debutant Búfalo Aguirre, plus a great finish from Joaquim and another from Ángel Aguirre, the feline team took the victory by a score of 4-1 over the Canadian team.
Aguirre had the presentation on his new field: timid whistles appeared in the Stadium, presumably because it was Búfalo Aguirre’s first game, but his goals raised the first cheers in his favor.
Ángel Correa and Joaquim closed the game to seal the final score of 4-1.
