The Conmebol Disciplinary Tribunal on Thursday ordered the postponement of the second leg of the Copa Libertadores final of 2018, and sentenced River Plate with two in-camera matches starting in 2019 and the payment of a fine of 400 $ 000. .
"Order the Conmebol club's competitions department to reschedule the final match of the 2018 Conmebol Libertadores between Atlético River Plate and Club Atlético Boca Juniors", says the second point of the resolution published today by the disciplinary court .
In addition to the River Plate decision, the Disciplinary Tribunal issued one for Boca Juniors, which did not result in the Xeneize Club's request.
Shortly after announcing the findings of the Conmebol Disciplinary Tribunal, Paraguayan President Alejandro Domínguez confirmed that the match would be played at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid on Sunday, 9 December.
The penalty imposed on River, which will only come into effect in 2019, will only allow up to 70 members of River to enter the field, including players, coaching staff and the team. medical staff, as well as club officers and directors.
They can join 20 officials, at most from the Argentine Football Association (AFA) and accredited journalists.
In addition, there is a penalty of $ 400,000 sanction, which will be deducted from the amounts received for television rights.
River will now have seven days to appeal the decision of the Appeals Chamber, if it so wishes.
For its part, the same court did not give way at the request of Boca Juniors, in which he had asked the Conmebol not to play the second stage of the final of the Copa Libertadores.
As in the River bankruptcy case, Boca will also be able to appeal within the next seven days.
The president of the club, Daniel Angelici, has promised to exhaust all routes of the Conmebol and even to resort to the Court of Arbitration of Sport (CAS).
The final match of the Copa Libertadores should have been played last Saturday but a violent attack by fans against the bus that led the Boca players to the Monumental stadium led in principle the postponement of the match for Sunday, then the refusal of visitors . to play more, including his claim to be proclaimed champion in the offices.
