Boca announce two pre-season friendlies, great news for club members | OneFootball

Three days after starting preseason at the Ezeiza training ground, Boca has arranged its two friendly matches ahead of the start of the Torneo Apertura. They will face Millonarios of Colombia at La Bombonera and Nacional of Uruguay in San Nicolás.

First, they will play against the Colombian team on Wednesday, January 14 at La Bombonera. For this match, 50% of the general admission section will be reserved for associate members, which is great news for those who don’t have as many opportunities to attend the stadium during local tournament matches. Millonarios will also face River during this preseason, on Sunday, January 11 at the Maldonado Campus in Uruguay.

Afterwards, on Sunday, January 18, they will take on El Bolso at the Estadio San Nicolás de los Arroyos, the venue where Estudiantes was crowned champion in the Trofeo de Campeones against Platense and where Boca played a friendly against Juventude of Brazil last summer. The last time these two teams met was in the round of 16 of the 2023 Copa Libertadores, a stage in which Xeneize won on penalties after a 2-2 aggregate score.

There are still no confirmed times, but it is expected to be at night considering the high temperatures recorded at this time of year. In the coming days, the club will announce through its official channels how ticket sales will be handled and their prices.

These two friendlies will serve as preparation for a squad that, for now, has no new faces. The management is still negotiating for Marino Hinestroza and Alexis Cuello, but both deals are facing obstacles that have yet to be resolved, although there is optimism.

It’s worth noting that on the last weekend of January, Boca will make its debut in the Torneo Apertura against Deportivo Riestra at La Bombonera. There is still no confirmed date or time for the opener, but it is estimated that it could be on Sunday the 25th in the late afternoon or evening.
