The Monumental, not quite empty.

After River’s clash with champions Estudiantes this weekend, their next two home matches will be played away from the Monumental. For the second time in the current campaign, the Ministry of the Interior have ordered the closure of the stadium following the infighting amongst the heirarchy of Los Borrachos del Tablón, the club’s barra brava, after the match with Independiente two weeks ago.

    This would have been bad news two months ago, but River have shown to be equally capable of dropping points at home.
