First leg of the final between Boca and River Saturday evening 8pm. Think only available online unless someone has picked it up but should be a decent occasion. Away fans banned and the return leg next Saturday same time.

 

La Bombonera looks a fantastic venue so should be an incredible atmosphere given what is on the line.

First ever all Argentine final which is pretty amazing.

 

No visiting fans being allowed is partly due to the number of seats that would have to have been lost to segregation.

Would hate to be playing for the away team in this fixture, despite the fact that the home support are always so intense the players don't exactly keep their heads down though! 

 

Should be cracking entertainment

I've been in BA the last two weeks. The city is absolutely rocking with excitement for this, gutted I won't be able to try and get a ticket. I always seem to miss them when in here, a Boca/River game is on my bucket list

@freesportsuk on twitter saying they are steaming the second leg.

 

My take on their tweet is that they have both legs of the 2 legged final. 8pm Saturday, that’s my evening sorted ?

Much as I like freesports for their less mainstream coverage, the SD is a bit hard to watch at times. For that reason alone will be watching on BT Sport instead

I went to a river plate v independiente game which is a lesser Buenos airies derby. Atmosphere was amazing but the quality of football was poor. 

 

I did the tour of la bombenera, the stadium was awesome!!

Was just reading about this, should be an interesting game. Apparently a fan has already been killed in clashes! Mental. 

 

Some good info on the game here

Also, away fans are banned in Argentina as people die.

Been to a Boca derby vs Independiente. Was ****ing amazing, Maradona hanging out the box whipping up the crowd etc.. 

 

The Super Classico would be off the scale, particularly in this context.

Not sure if I'm a Terry or a Bob but I feel like a "Likely Lad". 

 

No chance of watching it live because of wife/daughter/Strictly and other such crap so recorded it, avoided going on line etc., with the intention of watching it, old school, right now.

 

Some sources suggest a 7pm UK ko tomorrow but TV appears to be 6 o'clock. Anyone know, beyond dispute, the ko time?

Not Coins - more like a sharp pole thrown at River Plate player
