The reception for Diego Maradona at the Bombonera is ready. And the only thing that the club needs is that it be synchronized because the requirement of the Super League was that everything be developed within the stipulated times so that the duels between Boca and Gymnastics, in Buenos Aires, and Atlético and River, in Tucumán, begin in simultaneous.
Thus, Maradona is expected to jump to the field ten minutes before the start of the game, scheduled for 21. There he will be received by Miguel Brindisi and Hugo Perotti, his teammates in the 1981 title.
In addition to the presence of relatives of Ten, Carlos Tevez will appear on the scene, who will give him a tribute shirt. They will not be the only surprises of the day: there will be a giant welcome canvas and a symbolic curtain for Diego in Brandsen 805.
While there was speculation that the Xeneize women's soccer team gave Maradona a platelet, the team decided not to participate in the event. As they explained on social networks, they will not go to the Bombonera because they want to be rested for the game on Sunday at 17 in the Pedro Pompilio Complex, where Hikers will be measured for the First Division tournament.
Recall that the girls play this Sunday against Hikers so they will not be present this Saturday in the tribute to Maradona. We wait for you all in the Pompilio to live the party every weekend 💙💛💙 pic.twitter.com/qQpB6gDsIk
- BocaF FútbolFemenino (@BocaFutFemenino) March 6, 2020The Bombonera will not be the trophy for the champion of the tournament. The Super League decided that it will not deliver this Saturday because River plays in Tucumán and Boca in Buenos Aires.
Therefore, faced with various rumors, the organization of the contest decided to postpone the award to the champion. As they could not dispose of the trophy in equal conditions for River and Boca because Marcelo Gallardo plays in Tucumán and Miguel Russo in Bombonera, the Super League decided not to give priority to any and perform the awards ceremony later.
"Before different versions, the Super League clarifies that it will crown the champion in the first match he plays at home in the 2020 Super League Cup. If there is a tiebreaker, it will be held at the end of the defining match," they clarify in their social networks.
