Posted by The Copa Libertadores final second leg between rivals Boca Juniors and River Plate is 'likely to be played in Doha, Qatar on December 8'.
South American football’s governing body CONMEBOL announced on Tuesday that the rearranged tie would be played outside Argentina on either December 8 or 9.
Doha, 8,268 miles from Buenos Aires, is set to be the chosen location for Boca Juniors and River Plate to lock horns again if the match is to go ahead, according to TYC Sports.
It was reported on Tuesday that Boca Juniors were refusing to play - insisting they should be awarded the title following last weekend's chaos in Buenos Aires.
Billed as the biggest club game in South American football history, the second leg was twice delayed on Saturday, postponed until Sunday and then called off following an attack by River Plate fans on the Boca team coach.
With the tie poised at 2-2, Boca players were left injured by shards of broken glass and affected by tear gas, which was fired by police to disperse the crowd outside River Plate’s El Monumental stadium.
It had been hoped that the final of the South American equivalent of the Champions League, the first between Argentina’s most famous clubs, could be completed on Sunday, but Boca asked for another postponement, as some of their players were still suffering from the after-effects of the tear gas.
