'I feel alive' – Tevez stars on Boca Juniors return

Former Manchester United, Manchester City and Juventus forward Carlos Tevez said he feels alive after making his Boca Juniors debut for a third time on Saturday.

Tevez left boyhood club Boca for Chinese Super League side Shanghai Shenhua in a deal reportedly worth $40 million in December but completed a return to Buenos Aires this month after struggling in China.

And the 33-year-old, who described his time in the CSL as a holiday, impressed in his 90-minute performance in front of the adoring La Bombonera, setting up Nahitan Nandez for Boca's second goal in their 2-0 win over Colon.
