On the brisk morning of March 13, 2025, La Liga Profesional broke the news via their social media channels regarding a scheduling tweak that's sure to be of keen interest to football aficionados. The fixture in question? The highly anticipated clash between Boca Juniors and Defensa y Justicia, originally set for a 18:30 kickoff this Sunday at the hallowed grounds of La Bombonera, will now commence a tad earlier, at 18:15.
The announcement read: "For organisational reasons, the match between Boca and Defensa, as part of the 10th Round of the Betano Apertura 2025, will be played at 18:15 instead of the previously scheduled 18:30." It seems the 'organisational reasons' pertain to the match's television broadcast arrangements, a consideration often at play in such schedule adjustments.
In other developments, one might also have noticed reports suggesting that a Boca player has caught the attention of a European national side. Furthermore, whispers of coach Lema offering tips to Gago prior to the match against Defensa have surfaced, alongside Paredes nudging Riquelme with a perfectly executed play. In a cheeky nota bene, Pergolini even drew comparisons between Riquelme and icons like Mick Jagger, Bono, and Bill Gates!
As the match approaches, excitement continues to bubble over at both ends. Fans are left eagerly awaiting what promises to be an enthralling encounter at La Bombonera.
