The game was rescheduled for Sunday byCONMEBOL, South American football’s governing body, but was postponed again just three hours before the re-arranged kick off-time.Now CONMEBOL have taken the decision to stage the game – regarded as one of the biggest in Argentine football history – outside of the country,It will take place on either December 8 or 9.4

Fans packed the El Monumental Stadium twice for the match but will now miss out on seeing one of the biggest game in Argentine football history

Several potential venues have been suggested by the South American media, with Miami, Paraguay’s capital Asuncion and the United Arab Emirates among the possible candidates.It has also been reported that Boca formally asked CONMEBOL to disqualify River Plate and award them the trophy – a request the confederation has appeared to decline.Crowd trouble in South American football is hardly new and the two legs of the final were scheduled to be played without away fans, as their safety could not be guaranteed.But the scenes from the weekend were deeply embarrassing for Argentinian football, particularly as the country hopes to lead a joint bid for the 2030 World Cup with Paraguay and Uruguay, a tournament that England, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales would like to host, too.
