Last weekend, River Plate defeated Estudiantes at home and won the Argentine Championship title for the 38th time
Without being able to defend the title conquered last year, the Boca Juniors had to see the river plate, the rival of a lifetime, shout champion last weekend. After winning the studentsthe team of Demichelis won the 38th title of the Argentine Championship and led the fans to delirium in the streets of the city.
As part of the folklore of Argentine football, taking advantage of the moment of euphoria, River Plate used social networks and published an image with a hidden provocation that stinged Boca Juniors for winning a new title. The photo is a simple Excel list showing the games that River won, drew and lost in the championship.

The publication, at first glance, does not seem to make much sense. But in reality, the River Plate post arose from a similar image posted by a Boca fan. The photo in question was an Excel with the results that the Xeneize team needed to reach Martín Demichelis’ team in the ranking of the Argentine Championship.
In addition to replicating the post, in this case showing an Excel spreadsheet with the results that River Plate obtained to become champions, the CM (Community Manager), responsible for publicizing the club’s content on social networks, had an ingenuity that aroused several provocations from River fans to Boca.
The detail that CM added to the post was the time it was made. It was 9:12 in the morning. Such calendar refers to the 2018 Libertadores final, in which River beat Boca in that historic definition that took place on December 9. In this way, with the ingenuity of the CM combined with the publication on the networks, the fans wasted no time in adding provocations to their rivals.
