Empieza la Copa: Boca Juniors vs Toluca de México, Wednesday February 13th.

OH HELL YEAH!!!!!!
These Libertadores nights are my absolute favorite. My only wish is that we get to meet riBer again in an elimination round one of these days. But alas, I'm already 32. I don't know when the little upstart from La B will be able to qualify, let alone make it to an elimination round.
I'd like to be greedy here, but honestly, I would actually settle for a tie, provided the team plays relatively well, especially on defense.

 

Man I remember singing this song in the bombonera 2003 Boca vs cobreloa. Great game that night. The copa is special and I just can't wait for tomorrow.

 

He definitely had reason to be spooked, but at home, against a team that has not been playing well and coming off a 4-1 trashing against Tigres, I'm not making such a move. I believe that subbing in Ribair or Erbes should get the job done.

 

Gotta put in a good performance and set a good example because there will be some very special viewers watching....

 

Now that I remember how little influence Paredes had over the weekend, maybe it's not just a bad idea. That said, that better free up Ervitti to be a little bit more attacking. Also, I'd like it if he were able to pace himself a bit in order to finish the match. This guy has been running himself into the ground ever since he came. Also, I see that El Virrey listened to me and giving Acosta a run. I hope he's ready for the bigger stage.

Game's on!

 

Pretty good energy so far. Ervitti is all over the place. The defense looks better organized.

 

Penalllll! Acosta's speed shows up.

Silva converts.

1-0 good guys.

 

Lets see if Bianchi's defense lives up to the task now.

 

The sooner Bianchi takes out Cellay the better. Maybe we could use him in the middle but he's lost on that right side.

 

Watching my 1st ever Boca game! Caught the highlights against Quilmes, kinda hard to follow from the UK. Nice pen btw. Let's get another win!

 

Welcome aboard!

 

I really like what I saw from Orion, Silva, Ervitti, and Acosta. Everyone else was solid except for the walking disaster, Cellay.

 

Rodriguez, Erviti, Silva and whatever the keeper is called(lol) all looked decent. Dunno who Cellay is lol.

 

OOOOOOOORIOOOONNNNNN!!

Cellay is having a nightmare!!

 

Damn

Easy! He is the one that was stinking up the joint on the about every play he was involved defensively. He's playing right back.

 

No Carrizzo but Cellay is lost out there. Out of position every time. I would expect carruzo giving up a penal for boca, he doesn't make the cut for me.

 

Cellay out.
