No entiendo la significa de esta frase.
¿Podrían ayudarme?
Quizá, " Boca didn't get close to scoring a goal/point".
Gracias,
Tim

A El Boca no le alcanzó para acercarse a la punta. Boca Juniors is an Argentinian soccer team. Your phrase means that the team was not sharp enough to score a goal.

I've seen your profile, you are in Argentina, and I'm sure you know that Boca Juniors is an Argentinian football team. Your sentence means that Boca either won or tied a match, but it wasn't enough to reach or get close to the top of the league's table.
Esto es un ejemplo de una tabla de posiciones del fútbol argentino.
River Plate está en la punta de la tabla / River Plate es el puntero de la liga.
River Plate ganó y está en la punta
I hope it helps, see you!
