The game was moved to the national stadium (50k capacity) from the usual ground (35k) This meant more fans (so cant complain) but the downside was the disorganisation. I reckon there were close to 5k still queueing to get in on kickoff. They had scanners to check tickets on Sunday, hence you could use e-rickets on your phone as well as print outs. Last night they turned people away unless they had paper tickets. The hat thing was buzarre. A huge pile of confiscated hats, then on the way out, they had basically all been knicked. Htf a baseball hat is deemed a security risk ill never know. There were 1000 RP fans and given the cost of travel, they would have been relatively wealthy. No trouble at all. Saw a few in tbe home end too (with shirts) The trouble at the final (attacked the Boca coach) was literally 50 peopls throwing stones. Easy to label a whole fan base as violent but in reality the vast majority were (are) well behaved :-) | |
