The Argentine consul in Rio de Janeiro, Ana Emilia Sarrabayrouse, confirmed that between 100 and 150 thousand Boca fans are expected in the populous Carioca city to attend Saturday's Copa Libertadores de America final against Fluminense at the Maracana stadium.

With a small number of fans already settled in Rio de Janeiro a few days ago, the bulk of the supporters will be arriving between Wednesday and Friday in the Carioca city -with or without tickets- to accompany the "xeneize" in another Copa Libertadores final.

Sarrabayrouse confirmed that, in numbers, this bulk of supporters is between 100 and 150 thousand Boca fans who will visit the city this week.

In addition, it was reported that 105 buses will leave from La Bombonera and the interior of the country, 870 cars and traffics from the interior, 8977 people with plane tickets and 51,103 only from the affiliates throughout the country.

Therefore, knowing that only around 20,000 have tickets, the Sambodromo will open for Boca fans who remain outside the Maracana stadium. Even the mayor of Rio de Janeiro, Eduardo Paes, stated that "the structure is ready for the Argentines".
