As usual on these occasions, River fans prepare

a reception that they assure will be historic for Martín Demichelis's team

Then, the help multiplied, with the intention of raising spirits and having the spirit rise in the face of the confrontation against the eternal rival.

For the welcome this Sunday, more than 1,700 wooden flags

were assembled

to be distributed in the lower stands of the Monumental.


Meanwhile, in the rest of the stands, there will be more than

80,000 red and white balloons

that will form the flag of the Greatest.

The so-called "pendorchos" will be in the Sivori, in the Belgrano and in the Centenario, while in the San Martín Alta

a huge curtain will be displayed

.

It is about the giant 'rag' that has the faces of the idols (

Beto Alonso, Ramón Díaz, Enzo Francescoli, Ángel Labruna, Amadeo Carrizo, Burrito Ortega, Marcelo Gallardo and Leo Ponzio

).

The flag measures

120 meters long by 25 meters wide

and weighs

1,100 kilos

.

Almost 200 people

were needed

to climb it to the top of the aforementioned stalls.

It will not be the only curtain: the Fan Subcommittee has saved a new cloth, which will be presented this Sunday in the Superclásico.

As

Clarín

was able to find out , the flag would be in the shape of a giant shirt,

with the format of the 2018 one and with a legend linked to the Madrid final: "The M4s Gr4nde of history"

.

Beyond the curtains, there will be

white and red smoke

for the reception, and fireworks that will detonate behind the San Martín stalls, as is customary before every important match.

This reception will be the continuity of the support that the fans gave the players on Saturday night, when they self-convened on the club's beach (a few meters from the concentration of the squad, right in front of the confectionery) to make a banner, in in which there were drums, flares and wooden flags, in addition to the usual court chants.

After holding their breath for a long time, the players appeared one by one, in single file, through a kind of fence, specially arranged to get closer to the fans.

There they lived closely the warmth and color of the people, who began to sing louder and louder.

He rumbled 

"whatever it takes tomorrow / tomorrow we have to win"
