Watch: Carlos Tevez sent the Boca fans crazy with his first goal since returning

GGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLL

So that’s why he was so eager to return.

Carlos Tevez never tried to hide that he wasn’t a fan of living in England. During his stints with Manchester United and Manchester City, the Argentine frequently complained about the weather and the food on offer in the north-west city.

Tevez is now back home though, via a successful detour in Italy with Juventus, and back at Boca Juniors, the club where he began his career and is a hero to the fans.

A big hero judging by the reaction to his first goal since returning to the club last month.

Tevez curled in a free-kick, the final goal in Boca’s 3-0 win over Banfield in the Copa Argentina last night, and sparked delirium amongst the Boca faithful.

Welcome (back) to Boca, Carlos.
