The incidents that erupted in Buenos Aires last Saturday left little choice to the South American Football Confederation.
She decided that the final return of the Copa Libertadores – the equivalent of the Champions League – would not be played in Argentina, but on neutral ground.
This decision does not satisfy either of the two clubs: Boca Juniors claimed victory on green carpet, while River Plate wanted to play the match in his stadium, El Monumental.
On November 10, the two great rivals of Buenos Aires had ended in a draw two everywhere in the first leg.
And the return could not take place because River's ultra fans had stuck the bus of Boca's players, wounding two of them, including captain Pablo Perez.
Several cities, such as Belo Horizonte, Brazil, or Genoa, Italy, have already offered to host the meeting, which should finally be held on 8 or 9 December.
