However, the xeneixes ended 2021 in pure celebration. They beat UAI Urquiza 5 to 2 in the final of the YPF Tournament of the first division of women’s football in front of a large part of their fans.

And days later, they played the super final against the Santitas, took the mufa from the previous final and beat him 4 to 2 at the Platense stadium. Why is Boca the best team in women’s football today? Here are some keys.
