The second leg of the Copa Libertadores Round of 16 match between Boca Juniors and River Plate kicks off tonight in one of the world’s most fierce and passionate games in soccer.
In the first leg, the match was decided by a late penalty after River Plate’s Carlos Sanchez converted the penalty. But everything is left to play for tonight with Boca Juniors playing in front of its home crowd at La Bombonera.
Beginning at 8pm ET, the match will be shown live on US television and Internet. Plus, if you’re an English speaker, we’ve got a unique way for you to follow the match.
