    Several hours for them to make an obvious decision that could have been made in 10 minutes

    It's not an action I commend, but the truth is team buses get rocks thrown at them regularly in South America, even for matches of much smaller magnitude. When River and Boca face off, it's practically something you expect to happen, unfortunately.

    Mañana de camino al estadio (juega Racing 21:30) me cruzo con 100 mil gallinas o bosteros en el obelisco festejando...

    Buscando caminos alternativos... :ninja:

    Yep. Happens all the time. But I think most of the time they don't throw shit that breaks windows. Either that or they've had terrible aim for a long time.

    Liverpool fans threw a bunch of shit at Man City's bus last season. So it's not just SA.

    And Dortmund bus got bombed as well, though that seemed to be more of a conspiracy than a fan driven thing.

    The Monumental has been "suspended" by the city until there are security assurances .

    So is that mean that the match is canceled?
    They should consider moving the match to a "neutral" stadium, like San Lorenzo's or Independiente's

    River will pay a fine to re-open it is what they're saying. Just a procedural thing. If it wasn't the final maybe there would be hope of consistent application of rules, but since it is anything will go apparently. :rolleyes:

    After all the irregularities, absurdities, and nonsense seen in this Libertadores, CONMEBOL got its well-deserved, logical consequence today. The dream final became a nightmare, and an embarrassing and shameful one at that.

    I only wish that Pablo Pérez and Gonzalo Lamardo make speedy and complete recoveries, and that the other Boca Juniors players who suffered injuries likewise recover quickly and 100%.

    VERGONHA.

    Perhaps they should have been throwing dollar notes at the bus.....

    You cannot generalize like that. There are small sections of nutjobs at each club who think passion means attacking opposition fans and players and intimidating their own more reasonable support. Even to the extent of killing people going to watch a football match. And it happens all the time from Mexico and indeed when Ajax play Feyenoord. Remember Beverwijk and the animals of the F side and FSC ?

    It's a disease which still affects football throughout the world. Unfortunately in Argentina the authorities have done little to tackle these barra bravas and lock them up and allow the decent passionate fans to support their clubs in peace and go to away matches.

    La situacion a esta hora:
    Pablo Perez se sometera a un control medico, y si lo ven mejor, puede que se juegue el partido esta tarde. Sino, Boca emitiria un comunicado donde indicaria que no va a jugar hoy. ¿Piden el partido ganado? Aun no esta descartado.

    Meanwhile, Alejandro Dominguez:
    "Quiero aclarar que Angelici fue muy claro y me dijo que no iba a pedir los puntos, Boca quiere ganar jugando en la cancha. Tengo un documento firmado por todas las partes (River, Boca y Conmebol) que dice que hoy se juega. Me aseguran que el estadio estará habilitado y para nosotros el partido arrancará a las 17"

    --

    Por encontrarse en "desigualdad de condiciones", desde el Xeneize solicitarán suspender la final histórica. Pablo Pérez fue atendido en el sanatorio Otamendi y dijo que está para jugar. Mientras, funcionarios de la Conmebol y la Policía ingresaron al vestuario visitante. En Núñez, fuerte operativo de seguridad. La cita sigue siendo a las 17, por orden de Alejandro Domínguez.

    ---

    And so the uncertainty continues...

    There it is... Boca doesn't want to play and has requested the win off the field, despite agreeing to play it during yesterday's meeting.
