Boca Juniors' president, Daniel Angelic, was stubborn in his stance on this match, sending him a Conmebol letter for the River Platte to be disqualified after the attacks on Bocas headquarters and players, Periscope follows.
Angelic's counterpart, Rodolfo D'Onofrio, was also present, as was Robert Harrison, head of the Paraguay Football Association, which led to speculation that the match could be played in Asunción but Brazil and Italy have also offered to host the second match. The first match ended 2-2 at the Bocaés Bombonera Stadium.
Conmebol's decision to shift the match from Argentina may have been influenced by the G20 Summit, which begins Friday in Buenos Aires and will receive much from city police and security sources.
With the World of Clubs starting on December 12th, Conmebol needs the situation to be resolved as soon as possible so that South America can have a representative in this world, where Europe will be represented by Real Madrid./Periscopi/
