The League Cup is halfway through and this weekend there will be a day of pure adrenaline, as it will be the famous date of the “interzonals”, in which the highlight will be the Superclassic that River and Boca will star in the Monumental, from 19.
Those led by Marcelo Gallardo, who arrive with spirits through the roof after the routs against Deportivo Laferrere for the Argentine Cup and against Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata, are one of the leaders of Zone 1 of the League Cup. Those of Sebastián Battaglia, although they took away the undefeated Estudiantes de La Plata, suffered a weight loss, like that of Cali Izquierdoz. With 11 units they appear in the third place of Zone 2.
TIME, TV AND REFEREE OF THE MATCH:
The appointment at Antonio Vespucio Liberti will be this Sunday, from 7 pm, with television for Argentina of Fox Sports Premium and TNT Sports (only through the Football Pack).
The person in charge of delivering justice will be Darío Herrera, who will be supported by his assistants Juan Pablo Belatti and Diego Bonfá. For his part, Facundo Tello was appointed as the fourth official.
This will be the fourth time that the native of Neuquén will be the chief judge. The first was the one sadly remembered for the “pepper spray” that the Napolitan Baker threw on River players during the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores 2015.
His next intervention was that same year, in a duel corresponding to the local tournament. On that occasion, Xeneize won 1-0 at Monumental thanks to a goal by Uruguayan Nicolás Lodeiro. The last one, on the other hand, was in the first half of 2017 at La Bombonera. That day the victory went to the Millionaire. He defeated his longtime rival 3-1 with goals from Pity Martinez, Lucas Alario and Sebastián Driussi (Fernando Gago marked the discount for the local).
The record marks that Herrera led River in a total of 20 matches, with 11 wins, four equalities and five falls. Boca, on the other hand, blew it 27 times, with 15 wins, nine draws and three defeats.
WHEN DOES TICKET SALES START AND HOW TO BUY THEM:
Those from Núñez officially announced the exclusive pre-sale for members (without “Your place in the Monumental), which will begin this Wednesday at 10 (a quota was established). Once this remnant is exhausted, Somos River members will be able to purchase a ticket from 18.
It is worth noting that once the purchase is confirmed, the location will be automatically charged to the Single Card, with which the Monumental will be entered without the need for additional formalities. Those who do not have a Single Card will not be able to buy tickets.
On the other hand, they clarified that for this match the health pass will be required.
SECURITY OPERATION AND THE EXCLUSIVE CHANNEL FOR THE FAMILY:
Following the formal request to the football authorities, and following a meeting between the Security Committee headed by Guillermo Madero, representatives of the two institutions involved, managers of the LPF and the Argentine Football Association, City Firefighters, Civil Defense, Sports Events Police, AGC (Government Agency of Control) and MPF (Public Prosecutor's Office), it was established to advance the match schedule to 19.
One of the innovations that the security agencies will implement for this Superclassic will be that of the exclusive channel: families will enter through a particular street avoiding crowds. “It's exclusive for families. If you come with a minor or a pensioner, it is already a family group. These people will enter through a different access to avoid the crowds that always exist in shows of this magnitude. We did a pilot test and we are going to do another against Gimnasia, but it will officially open in the Superclassic. We encourage the family to go, that a grandson goes with his grandfather and they feel safe when entering and leaving,” Madero told Infobae.
The operation will have 1200 police officers plus 120 prevention officers. The entry of the visiting micro will be modified, to avoid incidents such as those of the 2018 Copa Libertadores final. The doors will open four hours before the start of the match.
