E06: The one with the Football Manager Forfeit
It's Supercopa Argentina time. River v Boca, for the second time this season. With Boca on form and River run ragged, will the tables have turned? And who faces the forfeit?
This week, we've reached the end of our first regular-season campaign in Argentina.
While league honours are at stake, the biggest concern of this year's gaming has been who would come out on top in our Super Classico, the Supercopa Argentina, pitting River and Boca against each other for the second time this season.
Last time out, Ken came out on top with River finding form early in the season. Off the back of a 12-game unbeaten run, can Boca draw blood and spoil River's run-in to their first title-ish since 2014? We say ish because Argentina's just been a minefield of crazy football structures for some time now.
We dive into the dressing room atmospheres, some tactical nuances, have a look at what's happening in the Copa Libertadores as we go post-league and discover we've actually got a lot more football to play than we initially thought.
This episode contains mild swearing.
