Vote in the poll – Who arrives better, River or Boca?

The Millionaire has decided to prioritize the subscribers, although, with 50 percent of the allowed capacity, not all could be present.

With the confirmation of the public’s return to the Argentine soccer fields as of October 1, it is a fact that the Superclásico between River and Boca, which will be played on Sunday 3, will have spectators. For this reason, the Millionaire has already got to work on the subject and He decided who he will give priority to to attend the Monumental, although he still has some situations to solve.

While it seems clear that it will be the subscribers who will have the privilege of witnessing the Superclásico, it is not yet defined which of them will be able to go and which will not. The thing is, With 50 percent of the capacity enabled, the available places will not be enough for everyone to attend in the most important game of Argentine soccer.

River has 47,000 subscribers, of which they could only go to the stadium when watching the match against Xeneize 35,000, since that number would represent half the capacity (approximately 70,000 spectators) of the Antonio Vespucio Liberti stadium.

How River would define which subscribers enter the Superclásico against Boca

Although nothing is officially confirmed yet, it is speculated that It could be a virtual raffle that decides who will be able to attend the Monumental and who will not. Thus, those who could not attend the first game will have priority to be able to do so in the next one.

Nor is it ruled out that the leadership chooses to give priority to the most expensive tickets. This rumor has already started to spread on social networks and made noise among the Millionaire’s fans, who are waiting to know the final decision of the club.

The request that River will make after the Government’s announcement about the return of the public

The Millionaire requested that, instead of 50% capacity, the quota be 60% so that all of its subscribers, who will have the exclusivity of attending the meetings, can enter the Monumental and, in this way, avoid the fact of having to manage who should go and who should not.

For the moment, with half the capacity and knowing that the Antonio Vespucio Liberti Stadium can receive 70,000 people, 12,000 subscribers would stay out of the Superclásico against Boca and they should go to the next day in which River plays at home to be able to go to the field.
