The La Plata team has earned the right to participate in the International Super Cup and the Argentine Super Cup, and could even compete for the Recopa de Campeones. Meanwhile, Walter Zunino's side fell just short of a second title, capping off a historic year with the Torneo Apertura title in the first half of the year. Estudiantes de La Plata dramatically beat Platense 2-1 in San Nicolás to be crowned champions of the 2025 Trophy of Champions, just a week after winning the Torneo Clausura. However, the La Plata side equalized in the 34th minute and went ahead in the 46th, with both goals scored by Lucas Alario. Thus, Eduardo Domínguez's team secures its twelfth local title and nineteenth in its entire history. This time, the president of the AFA, Claudio Tapia, was not present for the medal ceremony. At the Estadio Único de San Nicolás and with live coverage from the Argentine News Agency, the 'Calamar' took the lead with a goal from Franco Zapiola, a player whose rights belong to the 'Pincha', in the 5th minute of the second half.
