At Boca, it's all about celebration and carnival. Despite the suspension by the Football Security Committee that prohibited flags in the stands due to the "excessive welcome against River" and the Ghosts of the B, the fans put on a unique show. It was so grand that several world stars didn't want to miss it.
During the past week, Argentina experienced a global revolution. Several singers, actors, and politicians were in the country to fulfill their pre-established commitments and took the opportunity to visit the neighborhood of La Boca. They also visited La Bombonera to enjoy not only the museum and corridors filled with emblems but also the sports spectacle led by Claudio Úbeda.
Tonight, during the Xeneize's victory against Tigre in the last round of the regular phase of the Torneo Clausura, actor Johnny Depp was in one of the boxes at La Bombonera. On his way through the club's corridors to his assigned spot, he spoke with "El Canal de Boca," where he thrilled all the fans with a simple phrase: "Vamos Boca." He also received a jersey with his name and the number 10 from the president, Juan Román Riquelme.
Last Sunday, during Boca's 2-0 victory over River, singer Dua Lipa was present in the box at the J. Armando Stadium. After giving the first of her shows in Argentina, she was invited by Boca to witness the Argentine football Superclásico and caught the attention of all the cameras. Like the actor who played Jack Sparrow in "Pirates of the Caribbean," Román gifted the British composer a jersey with her name.
In the same match, several national celebrities were spread across various sections of La Bombonera, including Zaira Nara, Camila Galante (wife of Leandro Paredes), Sabrina Rojas, Fran Stoessel (brother of Tini), Rusherking, Guillermo Coppola, Laurita Fernández, Martín Bossi, Tiago PZK, Marina Bellati, Nico Occhiato, Marcos Giles, and Luli Latorre.
However, the most striking presence was Krzysztof Stanowski, a presidential candidate in Poland, who was amazed by the fans' celebration at La Bombonera. "This match will be hard to forget," said the politician, who was also impressed by Changuito Zeballos' great performance in the Superclásico.
Juan Martín Del Potro, like all the world stars, was in his box at La Bombonera to experience the Argentine football Superclásico and was also present tonight for the victory against Tigre, where it was an authentic celebration without flags.

At the end of the match, through his social media, the former world No. 3 shared an image with Agustín Eugui, the Uruguayan rural producer who found the jersey honoring Miguel Ángel Russo after his passing and was invited by the club. Even before Tigre left La Bombonera, he approached the visiting locker room to meet Nacho Russo (Miguelo's son) and hand over the jersey along with the balloons.
