‘A game too big for the occasion’... Was looking forward to watching this tonight as well ??
The fans were queueing up for hours before the game to get in, they were in the stadium along with the media when the game was postponed again. UEFA would face an absolute shit storm if this happened with the equivalent game, the Champions League final. Boca were chucked out at the 1/4 final stage years ago when the fans attacked River players with tear gas so surely River should be chucked out for this? At the very least they should be forced to play the match behind closed doors by CONMEBOL, would be a massive advantage for Boca with how passionate their fans are over there.
I’ve said it before here but it’s an absolute dream to go over there and watch a few games and it may sound a bit daft but this kind of thing just adds to the allure for me, not condoning it as it must’ve been awful for the players and staff inside but it’s just pure passion spilling over and for the neutral it’s great to see in person.
