River went to the Riestra pitch: from the DJ in the stands to the swimming pool that drove Kun Agüero crazy

It can be a religious experience going to the Deportivo Riestra pitch. Perhaps a paradigm shift on the football pitch. The fact is that, in addition to the advertising and smell of choripán, there are some peculiarities that add color the already strange situation of seeing River play on a pitch with 3,000 spectators. What is this? DJs, energy drinks and a holiday camp behind the Armani arch while the match of the fourth date of the Professional League is played.

Some unaware people will say: “how Víctor Stinfale missed the opportunity to receive River on another pitch and add a juicy collection to the club’s coffers”. But this situation would obviously prevent advertising for Speed, his energy drink, from appearing in every overview of the television broadcast. The one where the players entered by taking from the tunnel before the start of the match.

The replacement benches with brand new and shiny seats (obviously the roof of the benches simulates a can of the guarana-flavoured drink) and the small audience decorated as if it were the VIP of a bowling alley, show a scenario that escapes the general rules of football Argentine.

Before the match he plays house music, a chill out that grows until it reaches the best of the electronic scene so much so that little Guillermo Laza transforms himself into a bowling alley before the most important match in his history against River.

If we look from the side, the goal that goalkeeper Arce tried to defend in the first half (Millo went 3-0 in the locker room), behind it we can see the Nuevo Gasómetro, like a true giant next to little Laza.

As happens in the luxurious Formula 1 Grand Prix in Miami where garages with yachts, artificial beaches and VIPs have pool parties are sold, Riestra can boast of having a particular preferential sector in its sector.

The fact is that, while Armani celebrates his teammates’ goal from afar in the other goal, behind him dozens of kids and families battle the 37 degrees of the pitch’s swimming pool with a privileged view of the match.

The situation sparked a wave of reactions on social networks, including that of Kun Agüero who could not believe the surreal situation for the First Division championship of the world champion country: “Watching Riestra-River, the most beautiful thing is the swimming pool behind with people having fun”.
