Early this year (2018), police evacuated La Bombonera stadium in Argentina. It was evacuated hours before a big rally in preparation for the South America’s championship. There was a bomb threat and the police were being cautious with their investigation. At this time Argentine was getting tired of the threats and violence so they banned fans from visiting teams from attending matches that were not at their home stadiums.
This game was postponed as fans from the opposite team broke windows of buses by throwing things at them. The second attempt at the game was cancelled as well do to conditions still being bad. The game was not allowed to be played in Argentina and River was against it being played abroad so the game has still not been played and violence against both teams is still high. Before they can play one another they have to stop the threats and the violence stop.
