Ahead of Superclasico, River Plate legend of De Rossi's mockery

The Libertadores Cup semifinal will bring together two rivals River Plate vs Boca Juniors in the Superclasico header on Sunday (1/9/2019). The meetings of these two teams always present interesting sides both inside and outside the match.
Before the kick off the two teams' match kicked off, River Plate legend Norberto Alonso threw criticism at Boca Juniors player Daniel De Rossi. According to Alonso, De Rossi is not a big player.

"The media makes this boy very famous. I really don't know him. I don't like the style of play. I like players who really play soccer, "Alonso was quoted as saying by El Intransigente.

"De Rossi is not a typical midfielder who is able to make the team perform optimally in midfield. He doesn't seem to study much in Italy, "

The player who defended River Plate in the '80s said that the superclasico match will present an interesting spectacle for supporters of both teams.

Regarding the rivalry between the two teams, Alonso said that Boca Junior supporters were always looking for problems with River Plate supporters. According to Alonso, several times Boca always regarded us as the culprit.

"They shouted through the microphone that we were the killers and the troublemakers. Even though they threw us with ice blocks, "said Alonso.

"Even so we will still win. Now River Plate is in better condition compared to Boca. Now everything has changed and River Plate is stronger, "
