River suffered a tremendous defeat against Independiente Rivadavia in the Champions Challenge. La Lepra won 4-0 against an unknown Millionaire.
The goals were the work of Sartori, Vázquez, Tonetto and Moreno. It was a monologue from the Cuyo team, which celebrated this duel that had been postponed in style and brought together the last champion of the Professional League and the last monarch of the Primera Nacional. Despite the losses due to the players affected by his teams, Martín Demichelis put a very good eleven on the field.
