River and Boca will play it glory, or hell in a superfinal of high-voltage
Hens and bosteros. Millionaires and xeneizes. The swollen of the two great argentine teams are this Saturday at the edge of the attack of nerves. The first superclásico which is also the outcome of a Copa Libertadores. The first time that two teams from the same country, the same city, and archirrivales eternal face in the final of an international competition. Today in Buenos Aires is hysteria and history.
A sample of the dimensions of this River-Mouth was the bombonerazo Thursday. Mouth opened the doors of their stadium to all fans for a training of farewell before the final at the Monumental (at 21.00 cet). The first afternoon on the pitch of thousands of fans who never had money for power underfoot. Try walking between them was a real sport of risk. Euphoria exaggerated and without having earned anything yet. 50,000 people, making it tremble, literally, the temple blue and yellow. An operator of the sound of the club, he recorded how they moved their cabin. Other 15,000 souls were singing from the street. “In the court of River, we’re going to win, and the spin, and the spin we are going to give.” The Mouth was a feast.
The party ended badly, but could have ended much worse. The Ministry of Security closed the stadium because he was absolutely overwhelmed. Almost a miracle that there was no incident in the middle of what the minister Patricia Bullrich described as a “chaos total”. Had fans perched to any pole or fence more or less impossible. Dizzy and anguish to see them from the seating preference, reserved for the media. Some journalists have had to request that it be removed from the t-shirts of Mouth, so as not to upset members packed in spaces less privileged. What is not achieved is that they would leave the fanaticism to after. “Players, players, do not say more, the Copa Libertadores, the Mouth is not going”, sang along to the fans.
Now the club will have to pay a fine of up to 14.310 euros to lift the closure time of a possible celebration tonight. There is nothing confirmed about the festivities later, but the government of Buenos Aires pleads not concentrated swollen at the iconic Obelisk of the Plaza of the Republic. What for, really, is that you will not find. You don’t end up to the cones. The well-known violence of the argentine football forced in 2013 to prohibit the swollen visitor. The Monumental will be a sea of white and red, like two weeks ago, the candy box was blue and yellow.
That’s not a guarantee that this day of infarction to finish in peace and then glory. Sometimes, the barra brava (ultras) of a same team just to blows between them. Other, this is the great fear, the swollen rivals are searched for in the streets. It has happened in a lot of matches less voltage than this. This, as repeated by the president Mauricio Macri, twelve years as president of Boca, who knows if it will repeat. Glory or hell.
