Argentina
Boca Polo Team wins in extra time
First win for team in Argentina Polo Tour; success also for Valartis Bank team
The third day of the Argentina Polo Tour’s second phase went ahead at the Pilar and Palermo premises of the Asociación Argentina de Polo, with two very evenly-matched clashes.
In the first place, Boca Polo Team defeated La Tapera 15-14 in extra time, with Facundo Castagnola scoring the golden goal. This match was followed by the one between Golden Zebra and Valartis Bank, with the latter outfit narrowly edging its rival, as the 11-10 scoreboard indicates.
The event’s next two matches will be played this Wednesday (10th) at Pilar, with La Ginevra facing La Picaza (both teams seeking their second win in the event) and Cabreuva taking on Tom Tailor, the only undefeated team so far.
