Huracán v River: New venue or behind closed doors? | OneFootball

Due to the collapse that occurred a few days ago in Parque Patricios, the Millonario’s visit to the Tomás Adolfo Ducó Stadium could undergo some changes. All the details.

Following the suspension ordered by the AFA in all divisions for this weekend, the Millonario will return to the field next Thursday, March 12 at 9:30 PM to visit Huracán in what will be Eduardo Coudet’s debut.

The venue for the match is in doubt because of the collapse of an internal structure in a housing complex that happened a few days ago on a site located in Parque Patricios, just meters from the Tomás Adolfo Ducó. So far, the organization of the Professional League—tournament under the jurisdiction of the AFA—has not commented on whether this venue will be maintained or if the match will be moved elsewhere for safety reasons.

Another possibility is that the game will be played at the aforementioned stadium but behind closed doors. This is what happened last Monday, when El Globo hosted Belgrano just hours after the widely known incident. According to journalist Juan Pablo Marrón on La 100 FM, that match was held without fans “due to fear of the vibrations from the crowd, which continue to affect this housing complex.”

If the originally scheduled venue is confirmed, River will visit the Ducó after almost two years. Their last visit to Parque Patricios was on March 30, 2024, when they lost 1-0 with a goal from Ignacio Pussetto in the Copa de la Liga. In April 2023, they took all three points by winning 3-0 with goals from Salomón Rondón (x2) and Esequiel Barco.

Additionally, due to matters related to the organization of tournaments in the Professional League, River and Huracán will face each other after more than a year and a half. The last meeting dates back to August 2024, when they drew 1-1 in what was Marcelo Gallardo’s debut in his second spell as River’s head coach.
