On Sunday, precisely at 12:30PM, River Plate and Boca Juniors will square off in the second annual edition of the “Super 8 Senior Tournament”. The location will be at the Mundialista Stadium in Mar del Plata with free admission.
These two teams always cause a fury, on and off the pitch, and this game will surely be one of the most watched games of the year. Although the game is part of the “Super 8 Senior Tournament”, it also has a special cause. The match will fundraise the “House of Football”, which protects the rights of ex-football players and helps those who have economic needs.
The main feature of the match will be watching former River idol, Enzo Francescoli, play in a River jersey once again. Last year, he had a great performance with the senior team, only to lose to San Lorenzo’s senior team in the tournament semifinal.
Here are the probable formations:
River Plate (4-3-3):Juan Carlos Raña; Alejandro Montenegro, Ornaldo Javier Claut, Pablo Lavallén y Fernando Míguez; Fernando Kuyumchoglu, Mariano Juan y Juan José Borrelli; Ramón Medina Bello, Enzo Francescoli y Gabriel Amato.DT:Jorge Gordillo.
Boca Juniors (4-4-2):Carlos Fernando Navarro Montoya; Diego Soñora, Richard Tavares, Carlos Mac Allister y Luis Abramovich; Julio César Toresani, José Luis Villarreal, Walter Pico y Carlos Tapia; Alfredo Graciani y Sergio Martínez.DT:Nicolás Novello.
