Having left Europe and decided to seek happiness in South America, Daniele De Rossi made his debut for "Boca Juniors" last night.
In the Argentinian cup, "Boca Juniors" faced the "Almagro" team. The former "Roma" captain opened his goal account in his first match, but even his goal was not enough to secure a victory.
In the 27th minute, the Italian sent the ball into the opponent's net with his head. However, the opponents scored an equalizing goal in the 81st minute, and the battle for a spot in the next stage moved to a penalty shootout.
De Rossi was substituted just before the equalizing goal. Carlos Tevez converted the first penalty for "Boca Juniors," but the next three attempts by "Boca Juniors" were unsuccessful, allowing "Almagro" to secure a place in the next stage.
