Legendary Argentine football giants River Plate were relegated from the country’s top division Sunday for the first time in their 110-year history, amid tears and scenes of violent mayhem.
The Buenos Aires team are Argentina’s most successful club with 33 championships to their name, and their rivalry with Boca Juniors, based in the same city, is one of the most intense in all sport.
But there will be no Superclasicos next season unless the two sides draw each other in a cup competition, after River Plate were held 1-1 at home in the second leg of a promotion-relegation playoff with lowly Belgrano de Cordoba.
