Football around the world

James Rodriguez scored a wordly in the 1st half against the US, who still can't figure out who their coach will be almost a year later.

Yeah just seen it now, very good goal.

I believe only FSP Latin America will show it here, at least that's the only channel I've found that has it in schedule.

No play today in the libertadores final

Saw some pics this morning of the waterfalls in the stands and thought it wasn't gonna happen.

Been to a Boca game many years ago while i was working over there. Crazy passionate fans. Would die for there club. Whats the best games everybodys been too? Apart from the mighty redmen of course 

Boca's sub bench includes carlos tevez, mauro zarate and Fernando gago

Gago... I thought he retired in his mid 20's or something? WTF?

Found a dodgy stream just as a Boca player took a horrible dive,just couldn't be arsed to stick with it.Maybe the second leg with the cup on the line.

Enjoyable game, quality not the highest but a great event nonetheless

River v boca off again tonight, no idea where, when and if the 2nd leg will be played

Decision is supposed to be on Tuesday regarding the 2nd leg.

Weird how before the game there were so many people going on about how real and how passionate the fans were compared to sterile europe now it's all tut tut tut.See the pic of the mom strapping flares to her kid!

Hahahaha swap them for whiskey minatures and thats probably every scouse kid before the game!! I jest

Yeah was funny reading some of the crying cu*ts on twitter getting their knickers in a twist over it, at least it shows up City for the absolute shitbags they are, when you compare what happened to the city coach to what happened with the Boca coach.

Seems they wanna move the game outside argentina,should just share the cup 6 months each like they used to do with the charity shield.

Agree, it’s a South American competition and they go and move it to Europe.

No consideration for the fans whatsoever. 2 legged finals are f**king weird anyway, one of event at a neutral venue should always be the way imo for finals.

River Plate now saying they won't play in Madrid, can honestly not seeing this match happen.

Becoming a farce how poorly organized this is. Matches called off only hours before kick off and then to announce it to be played in another country only for one club to then say they won’t. Are these guys not talking to each other?!
