Copa Libertadores: they stoned Boca’s bus on arrival at the stadium

The attack took place on Jacú Pessego avenue, on the route that the residents of Bocas del Toro made between the Pullman hotel where they stayed, near the Guarulhos airport, to the stadium formerly called Arena Corinthians.

Precisely the hotel is located near the airport, in a militarized area, which prevented, for example, fireworks activity in its vicinity to prevent the footballers from resting, as happened in previous matches, but nevertheless this did not prevent the attack on the bus.

In the attacked vehicle that was transporting the delegation were also the president, Jorge Ameal; directors Alejandro González and Ricardo Rosica; Cristian Riquelme, the brother of Juan Román, and the members of the Football Council, the Colombians Mauricio Serna and Jorge Bermúdez.

Precisely the main aggression was recorded on the place where the “Patron” was traveling, where a large stone blew up the glass window, whose splinters were scattered on the seats of the bus, as verified by Télam at the scene. .

The bus passed by a place where a group of Corinthians fans was carrying out a “banderazo” and the impact of the projectile occurred on one of the lower windows of the bus.

Later, that same militarized custody carried out an exhaustive control over other buses that transported the 2,200 Boca fans who arrived at the stadium, who were not allowed to enter the flags they were carrying.

The Neo Química Arena has a capacity of almost 50,000 spectators and there will be 47,000 cheering on the local team.
