BUENOS AIRES, Nov. 20 (Xinhua) -- An early goal from Milton Gimenez gave Boca Juniors a 1-0 home win over Union Santa Fe in Argentina's Primera Division on Wednesday.
The 28-year-old striker headed home in the fourth minute after Exequiel Zeballos' piercing run and cross from the left flank.
The host defended resolutely thereafter to secure its ninth win of the campaign.
