More fútbol argentino than you can shake a mullet at
The second part of May's Superclásico Trilogy is almost upon us, as River Plate host Boca Juniors in the last sixteen of the Copa Libertadores, South America's premier club competition. In Argentina, this match is being screened free to air by TV Pública, who have a live stream of their channel 24 hours a day -... Continue Reading →
The first of a trio of superclásicos is upon us, as Primera División joint-leaders Boca Juniors and River Plate meet in Boca's Bombonera stadium this afternoon in Buenos Aires in one of the world's biggest derby clashes. The match is streamed live to the world by Fútbol Para Todos, who are kind enough to make the YouTube... Continue Reading →
The weekend just gone has been a good one for River Plate and Boca Juniors (although the current round of matches doesn't actually end until Tuesday night due to elections in Santa Fe Province). San Lorenzo and Rosario Central, with whom River and Boca were tied on 21 points at the start of the weekend,... Continue Reading →
Thursday evening brought the conclusion of Group 5 and a key match in Group 2 of the 2015 Copa Libertadores, and with the results of those games, one of the last 16 ties is now known. The Libertadores knockout stages are seeded, with the best group winner playing the worst runner-up, second best winner playing second... Continue Reading →
In case you missed Sunday's superclásico, I won't mention the score here - though I will reveal, as you'll discover pretty early in this video, that it was played in comically atrocious conditions (not so comic for those of us who were there, mind). Anyway; if you missed it, or if you want to rewatch it... Continue Reading →
I can't embed the video this time round as I'm going to the game and thus won't be online when the stream goes live, but as they did last time, Fútbol Para Todos are streaming today's superclásico to the whole world, live and in HD via YouTube. The stream will be on this page, starting shortly before... Continue Reading →
As my Twitter followers are already well aware, the Argentine government's Fútbol Para Todos programme has, for some time now, been streaming the vast majority of Primera División matches live to the world on YouTube. Today is no exception, so assuming this embed works properly, I am able to invite you to enjoy the superclásico right here on HEGS, live... Continue Reading →
For the first time since HEGS began back in February 2007, I won't be attempting to provide any live coverage of the superclásico today. That's because, for the first time, I'll be at it. The good news, though, is that wherever you are, it's never been easier to watch, because the Argentine government's Fútbol Para Todos program has... Continue Reading →
Part of this post should have gone up on Sunday night, but I didn't have time for it - apologies. Anyway, Sunday's Torneo Final matches saw a dull superclásico whose main talking points were Manu Lanzini scoring the fastest goal in the fixture's history to put River 1-0 up, before Santiago Silva equalised, and a hold-up during...
