Video: There was a pretty sensational atmosphere at River Plate v Boca Juniors last night

SCENES!

Neil Treacy

One to make the hairs on the back of your neck (of which I have many) stand up.

River Plate and Boca Juniors renewed their famous Superclasico rivalry last night in the first leg of their Copa Libertadores last 16 tie, and as usual, the fans created one hell of a scene to welcome the players to the pitch.

Colour, noise, flares and fireworks erupted throughout the Monumental, as River claimed a 1-0 win to take into the second leg.

If you thought that was impressive, take a look at how mental the place went when Carlos Sanchez scored River’s winner from the penalty spot.

And the  best thing about all this? They get to do it all again next Thursday night.
