Buenos Aires, Dec. 8 -- Adrian Martinez scored late as Racing reached the final of Argentina's Primera Division Clausura tournament with a 1-0 away victory over Boca Juniors.
The visitors broke the deadlock in the 75th minute when Martinez met Gabriel Rojas' cross with a towering header from the edge of the six-yard box.
The hosts rarely posed a scoring threat, managing only two shots on target against Racing's five-man defense.
Racing has now won five consecutive matches, while the result ended Boca's run of six straight victories.
"I'm very pleased to advance by eliminating a side like Boca," Racing manager Gustavo Costas told a post-match news conference.
