The Argentinian club has issued a statement regarding its meeting with rival Boca Juniors, scheduled to take place in Santiago Bernabeu on 9 December.
The text of the declaration reads as follows:
"River Plate has announced its refusal to change ground and the club considers that this decision distorts the competition, harms ticket buyers and affects the circumstances of the match.
Here are the reasons why River Plate supports its initial position:
– The responsibility for the security failure of Saturday, 24 November, outside the perimeter of the stadium before the start of the match, lies with the authorities in power. The River Plate Club regrets the events, but assumes no responsibility for what has happened.
– More than 66,000 on-site spectators waited patiently for about 8 hours on Saturday and returned to the stadium the next day. Most of these supporters were unjustly denied the opportunity to attend the match due to the difference in distance and the change of pitch.
– It is mysterious that the most important classic match of Argentine football can not take place naturally in the same country. The Argentine Football Federation can not allow a handful of rioters to prevent the creation of Super Classico in our country. "
