Club Atlético Boca Juniors is the one of the most popular Argentine sports clubs, best known for its football team. Its home base is the neighbourhood of La Boca, in Buenos Aires, and it hosts its home games at the Bombonera (chocolate box) stadium at 805 Brandsen Street.

Boca holds the international record of 16 international titles, including five Copa Libertadores and three Intercontinental Cups. The club has also won 22 Argentine professional championships.

Boca Juniors was positioned in a shared 12th position in the election of the FIFA Clubs of the 20th Century. It's also a fixture in the top 30 of the Club World Ranking maintained by the International Federation of Football History & Statistics and has reached the top position of the monthly ranking 6 times (mostly during coach Carlos Bianchi's tenure). As of the latest ranking (May 1, 2005 to April 30, 2006) they occupied the eighteenth position.

History

The team

On 3 April 1905, five Italian immigrants gathered in the Plaza Solís, located in the heart of the La Boca neighborhood of Buenos Aires. Esteban Baglietto, Alfredo Scarpatti, Santiago Sana, and brothers Juan and Teodoro Farenga founded Boca Juniors (the use of English language in team names was commonplace, as British railroad workers introduced football into Argentina).

The original jersey colour was pink, which was quickly abandoned for thin black-and-white vertical stripes. The legend has it that in 1907 Boca played another team that used these colors, to decide who would get to keep them. Boca lost, and decided to adopt the colors of the flag of the first boat to subsequently sail into the port at La Boca. As the boat was from Sweden, blue-and-gold were adopted as the new team colours. The first version had a yellow diagonal band, which was later changed to a horizontal stripe.

Boca Juniors played in local leagues and the amateur second division until being promoted to the first division in 1913, when the division was expanded from six teams to 15. Boca were never relegated; they won six amateur championships (1919, 1920, 1923, 1924, 1926, and 1930). With the introduction of professionalism in Argentina, Boca won the first title in 1931.


First Match: May 6, 1905. vs. Mariano Moreno.
First international match: December 8, 1907. vs. Universal (Montevideo, Uruguay)
First professional match: May 31, 1931 vs. Chacarita Juniors.


The Crest

Boca Juniors Crest, as of early 2000sThe shape of the crest has remained unchanged throughout Boca's history. In 1955, laurel leaves were added to celebrate the club's 50th anniversary, and the colours were changed to match those on the team's jersey.

In 1970, one star was added to the badge for each title won domestically (top part, above the initials) and internationally (bottom part). A new star is added to the corresponding section whenever Boca win a title. To the delight of fans, the crest has had to be modified several times in recent years, most recently after Boca's victory in the 2006 Clausura.

The stadium

Boca Juniors used several fields before settling on the current grounds on Brandsen Street. Construction work on the concrete structure started in 1938; during the erection of the stands, Boca played their home matches in the Ferrocarril Oeste field in Caballito until 1940. A third level was added in 1953, and the nickname La Bombonera ('The Chocolate Box') was born. The side opposite the Casa Amarilla railway platforms remained mostly unbuilt until 1996, when it was upgraded with new balconies and VIP booths. La Bombonera is renowned for its vibrating when fans start to jump in rhythm.


Dársena Sud: 1908 - 1912
Wilde: 1914 - 1915
Brins y Sengüel: 1916 - 1924
Brandsen: from 1924


The Fans

Boca Juniors is traditionally regarded as the club of Argentina's working class, in contrast with the supposedly more upper-class support base of cross-town rivals Club Atlético River Plate. Boca fans are known for valuing sacrifice and loyalty in good times and bad. River Plate fans, in contrast, are known for demanding attractive play from their team.

As of August 2005, the club has about 61,000 card-carrying members. Registrations are currently halted because of the limited stadium capacity. Boca claims to be the club of "half plus one" of Argentina's population, but a 2006 survey placed its following at 40%[1], still with the biggest minority.

The Boca-River Superclásico rivalry is one of the most thrilling derbies in the world[2]. As of March 2006, Boca leads with 113 victories, 90 draws, and 93 losses against River. After each match (excepting ties), street signs cover Buenos Aires, at fans' own expense, "ribbing" the losing side with humorous remarks. This has become part of Buenos Aires cultural ever since a Boca winning streak in the 1990s.


Nicknames

Boca fans are known as los xeneizes (the Genoese) after the Italian (especially Genoese) immigrants who founded the team and populated La Boca in the early 20th century. The word "xeneize" is Genoese dialect for the standard-Italian word "genovesi," which means "Genoese."

The name bosteros (horse-shitters) originates from the horse manure used in the brick factory that occupied the ground where La Bombonera stands. Originally an insult used by rivals, Boca fans have taken to wearing it with pride.

Following the team colors, Boca's shirt is also called la azul y oro (the blue-and-gold).

Boca's supporters are known as la número 12 or La Doce (player number Doce or 12, meaning "the 12th man") because of the influence they have on rival teams -- especially in home games -- where the stadium literally pulsates with their cheering.


International

Peñas (fan clubs) exist in many Argentine cities, and abroad, in countries such as Spain, Israel and Japan.

Boca have fans throughout Latin America, especially in Colombia and Peru, which are the home countries of many top players, parts of the USA due to Latin inmigration, and also in Japan because of the club's success in recent years at the Intercontinental Cup held in Japan. All over the world, fans are drawn to Boca by the club's international titles, and by the successes of Boca players who went on to play in European football such as Diego Maradona, Gabriel Batistuta and Juan Román Riquelme.


Others

Boca Juniors was the fifth football club in the world to have its own TV channel, opened in 2003. Boca TV broadcasted 24 hours a day, featuring sports programs and talk shows. The channel was closed in 2005.
There is a line of Boca coffins available for dead fans
[3], as well as the official Boca's cemetery[4].
Boca has its own fleet of taxies[5].
Another of Boca Juniors' products is the Boca Wine.[6].

Mas Grande Que Nunca

http://espndeportes-att.espn.go.com/2003/photos2006/0914/f_Bocas_412x232.jpg

Boca Juniors escribió otra página de oro en su historia al sumar su segunda Recopa Sudamericana consecutiva, tras igualar con Sao Paulo como visitante 2-2.

Con este nuevo título, Boca se convirtió en el equipo que más conquistas internacionales tiene -16-, superando a grandes como Real Madrid, Milan e Independiente, que acumulan un campeonato menos.

Además, fue el cierre ideal para el ciclo de Alfio Basile, que se fue a la selección con cinco campeonatos disputados y ganados como conductor del elenco auriazul: dos Recopas Sudamericanas, una Copa Sudamericana y dos títulos nacionales.

Inicia La Volpe una Nueva Era con el Boca Juniors: http://mediotiempo.com/noticia.php?id_noticia=25939

[Calif]

Yep asi es y no se porque pero creo que su ciclo de La Volpe con el Boca no durara mucho, Espero que este mal!!!!

[Calif]

Un primer paso que dejó dudas

Ricardo La Volpe, técnico de la selección mexicana en el pasado Mundial, comenzó con un tropiezo su etapa como entrenador de Boca


http://espndeportes-att.espn.go.com/2003/photos2006/0918/f_lavo2_vt.jpg

Ricardo La Volpe, técnico de la selección mexicana en el pasado Mundial, comenzó con un tropiezo su etapa como entrenador de Boca Juniors ya que el equipo no ganó y fue alcanzado en la cima del torneo Apertura 2006 por River Plate y San Lorenzo.

Todo lo positivo que tuvo el ciclo del técnico Alfio Basile, con cinco títulos en igual cantidad de competiciones y el liderazgo en soledad en el actual torneo se tornó en una carga pesada para La Volpe.

Nada hacía pensar que el equipo podía fallar el domingo en su estadio tras celebrar la obtención de la Recopa Sudamericana frente al brasileño Sao Paulo, ante un rival con posibilidades mínimas de salir ileso del choque de la séptima jornada como el recientemente ascendido Godoy Cruz de Mendoza.

La formación de Juan Manuel Llop llegó a "La Bombonera" sin haber logrado antes una victoria desde su ascenso a la división de honor y con el insignificante rédito ofensivo de un gol. Uno sólo anotado en la jornada anterior en un empate ante otro equipo procedente de la segunda categoría: Belgrano.

La mesa estaba servida para la recepción de La Volpe, quien se hacía cargo de un equipo boquense embriagado de triunfos, ponderado hasta el delirio y aparentemente condenado a un éxito permanente por el impulso de sus conquistas que le han situado como el que más títulos internacionales ha logrado en el mundo.

El elefante se enfrentaba a la hormiga, pero ésta no sólo evitó que el paquidermo la aplastara, sino que picó en varias ocasiones donde podía provocar dolor y transformó una fiesta, con millares de hinchas boquenses en los graderíos, en poco menos que un funeral. Empate a cero. Un fiasco.

"¿Hasta cuándo tiene contrato?", consultó a La Volpe un periodista que no dio demasiadas vueltas para ir al grano.

"Soy mayor para saber cuándo tengo que irme. En el momento en que empiecen los insultos y los dirigentes no me quieran, me voy", respondió La Volpe, quien no ha tenido tiempo hasta ahora de dirigir un entrenamiento completo, con tiempo y espacio para ensayos tácticos puntuales.

"Mi contrato se renueva partido a partido. Y sé perfectamente que cuando un equipo pierde en tres jornadas seguidas, el técnico puede quedarse sin trabajo", añadió.

La prensa deportiva argentina coincide en que La Volpe terminó la jornada fastidioso porque el equipo no ganó, pese a que lo merecía, y por la falta de suerte que su antecesor tuvo en varias ocasiones difíciles.

El empate de Boca Juniors y las victorias de San Lorenzo ante Independiente (0-1) y River Plate frente a Gimnasia de Jujuy (2-1) han hecho que el liderazgo esté ahora ocupado por tres equipos.

San Lorenzo logró los tres puntos casi colgado del larguero tras un tanto marcado por Andrés Silvera a los 51 minutos, mientras que River obtuvo la victoria a los 93 minutos con un tanto del centrocampista de 21 años Nicolás Domingo, el primero de su carrera.

Los boquenses tienen pendientes 45 minutos del partido de la sexta jornada frente a Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata, suspendido durante el descanso por amenazas al árbitro, pero pierden por 1-0.

"¿Hasta cuándo tiene contrato?". La Volpe entendió la pregunta y no descartó que también se haya tratado de un mensaje.

[valdanito]

I am not the biggest LA Volpe fan, but lets see how it goes.

[Calif]

Yeah me neither!!!!!!But lets hope he does a decent job with Boca!!!!

Analizará FIFA petición de UEFA para disputa de Copa Intercontinental


http://www.mediotiempo.com/images/noticias/26937.jpg


Se enfrentaría Boca Juniors contra Sevilla


La Federación Internacional de Futbol Asociación (FIFA) analizará la petición de la UEFA para que se dispute un partido por la Copa Intercontinental, donde se enfrentarían el equipo argentino Boca Juniors y el español Sevilla.

La solicitud, que envió la Unión Europea de Asociaciones de Futbol (UEFA) al máximo organismo del balompié, cuenta con el visto bueno de Ángel Villar, Vicepresidente de la UEFA y de la Federación Española de Futbol (RFEF).

Los equipos que disputarían el título Intercontinental sería el club Xeneize, quien es campeón de la Recopa Sudamericana, ante el Sevilla, ganador de la Supercopa de Europa.

Los directivos del Sevilla fueron los encargados de enviar la petición a la UEFA, quien a su vez envió un informe a la FIFA para que apruebe o no la realización del partido.

El caso ya está en manos de la FIFA, quien deberá tomará una determinación en los próximos días y de aprobarse el partido se llevaría a cabo a finales de este año.

El argentino Fernando Gago sueña jugar con el Barcelona o el Real Madrid


http://www.mediotiempo.com/images/noticias/27121.jpg


Aseguró que nadie se ha comunicado con él


El mediocampista argentino de Boca Juniors, Fernando Gago, admitió que uno de sus sueños es jugar en el balompié español, y contempla cumplirlo en alguno de los equipos grandes: Real Madrid y Barcelona.

En declaraciones que Gago realizó al programa La Gradería de Radio Barcelona y que publica el diario local Sport, el jugador señaló que está entre sus planes emigrar al balompié europeo y si es con alguno de los equipos grandes del mundo, mejor.

"Barça y Madrid son dos grandes clubes y sería muy importante para mí. Es un objetivo que me gustaría cumplir", dijo el medio, quien podría ser tasado por el conjunto xeneize en unos 20 millones de dólares.

Gago, comparado con medios de contención como su compatriota Fernando Redondo y el español Josep Guardiola, aseguró que nadie se ha comunicado con él, aunque la semana anterior se aseguró que se reuniría con Txiki Begiristain, Secretario Técnico del Barça.

"No he contactado con nadie. Sólo pienso en el futbol y yo me mantengo al margen de estas cuestiones", dijo el sudamericano, quien alabó la manera en que juega el cuadro blaugrana.

"Tienen muy buenos jugadores, y está (Lionel) Messi, con quien coincidí en la Sub-20. Ojalá se pueda dar en algún momento la posibilidad (de jugar ahí), me gusta mucho cómo juegan. Se puede aprender viendo el futbol y el ritmo que tiene el Barça", aseguró.

Suspenden el Boca Juniors-Racing del domingo por falta de seguridad


http://www.mediotiempo.com/images/noticias/27720.jpg

La decisión de suspender el partido fue tomada por la AFA
El partido del próximo domingo entre Boca Juniors y Racing fue suspendido, luego de que León Arslanián, Ministro de Seguridad de Buenos Aires, anunciara que no prestarán los servicios de seguridad para dicho encuentro.

Arslanián, en declaraciones a una televisora local, afirmó que se comunicó con el Presidente de la Asociación del Futbol Argentino (AFA), Julio Grondona, para informarle que no "se va a prestar seguridad y en consecuencia el partido se va a cancelar".

Pero aclaró que la decisión de suspender el partido fue tomada por la AFA, pues "no somos nosotros los que tenemos las facultades para hacerlo".

El Ministro de seguridad indicó que el duelo que se realizaría este domingo en la cancha del Cilindro de Avellaneda, no se puede llevar a cabo porque "sin operativo policial no están dadas las condiciones de seguridad".

El servidor público decidió no realizar operativo policial, luego de que se le permitiera al líder de una de las barras bravas de Boca, Rafael Di Zeo, el acceso al partido, luego de que la Academia les prohibiera el ingreso al hacer uso de su derecho de admisión.

Por su parte, el Presidente del Comité de Seguridad Deportiva de la provincia de Buenos Aires (Coprosede), Mario Gallina, se mostró contento con la decisión ya que representa un importante paso en la lucha contra la violencia en los estadios.

"Las personas que han cometido desmanes no pueden ir más a los estadios", señaló Gallina.

¿Detrás del goleador?

Según el diario La Tercera de Chile, Boca Juniors habría iniciado gestiones para contratar a Humberto Suazo, jugador del Colo Colo


http://espndeportes-att.espn.go.com/2003/photos2006/1027/f_Suazo_ht.jpg

El periódico chileno La Tercera publicó el martes que Boca Juniors inició gestiones para contratar al delantero del Colo Colo Humberto Suazo para la próxima temporada.

"Humberto Suazo está en la mira de Boca Juniors", tituló el diario trasandino en su portal de Internet. Incluso, el presidente de Boca, Mauricio Macri, reconoció que Suazo es un jugador que le "gusta mucho", aunque aclaró que todavía es prematuro hablar de refuerzos.

Macri, firmó el lunes un convenio de cooperación con el Colo Colo y expresó a La Tercera: "Suazo me gusta mucho, tiene muy buenas condiciones, pero ahora estamos pensando en el campeonato y no en los refuerzos. De acá a fin de año (el entrenador Ricardo) La Volpe analizará a fondo el plantel y ahí nos dirá que puestos necesita reforzar".

Por su parte, el presidente de Colo Colo, Cristian Varela, reveló que el mandatario boquense le preguntó sobre las condiciones del jugador dentro y fuera de la cancha.

"Macri mostró un fuerte interés por el jugador. Preguntó cómo era fuera de la cancha y por otros detalles", le dijo Varela a La Tercera.

Se define el Campeón de Argentina el miércoles y el futuro de La Volpe


http://www.mediotiempo.com/images/noticias/30322.jpg


Se espera un lleno en el campo de Velez


El argentino Ricardo La Volpe pondrá en juego su continuidad con el Boca Juniors este miércoles, cuando enfrente a Estudiantes La Plata en la definición del Torneo Apertura 2006 del balompié argentino.

La Volpe, quien tomó las riendas del cuadro sudamericano con el campeonato en marcha, reiteró en días pasados su decisión de que si los Xeneizes no conseguían el título, dejaría la dirección técnica de uno de los cuadros más populares de Argentina.

Boca y Estudiantes se medirán este miércoles en el estadio de Vélez Sarsfield, terreno neutral para el partido de desempate, luego que ambas escuadras finalizaran la campaña igualados con 44 unidades tras 19 fechas disputadas.

La escuadra Xeneize, que sólo necesitaba un punto para coronarse y alcanzar el histórico Tricampeonato, perdió sus últimos dos encuentros ante Belgrano (1-0) y Lanús (2-1), este último en La Bombonera, y dejó en el aire la definición del título.

Y es que los pupilos de Diego "Cholo" Simeone, que en apariencia sólo agradecerían el apoyo de su afición el domingo anterior, se impusieron 2-0 al Arsenal, con lo que alcanzó las 44 unidades para igualar a Boca y obligar al partido de desempate.

Con 11 victorias en sus últimos 12 encuentros, Estudiantes llega motivado y con hambre de triunfo, en busca del título ausente en sus vitrinas desde 1982, mientras que Boca afrontará este duelo con presión, aunque su experiencia puede ser determinante.

Asiduo invitado a finales en diversos torneos y con cinco títulos a cuestas en los últimos dos años, Boca Juniors sabe jugar partidos de alta exigencia, situación que estará a su favor, aunque el hambre y entusiasmo de su rival serán peligrosos.

Otro duelo se vivirá en las gradas, donde unos 30 mil aficionados apoyarán a su equipo. El lunes ya había largas filas tanto en La Plata con en el barrio de la Boca, en espera de que abrieran las taquillas para conseguir el boleto.

En caso de igualada este miércoles, se jugarán dos tiempos extras de 15 minutos cada uno, y si continúa el empate, el Campeón del futbol argentino se definirá mediante penales.

CUARTA VEZ QUE SE DIRIME UN TÍTULO CON PARTIDOS DE DESEMPATE

El partido por el título de Campeón que disputarán mañana, miércoles, Boca Juniors y Estudiantes, tiene escasos antecedentes debido a que será ésta la cuarta vez que es necesario apelar a un desempate en la era profesional del futbol argentino, que comenzó en 1931.

El encuentro extra se jugará debido a que los dos conjuntos igualaron con 44 puntos la primera posición del Torneo Apertura 2006 tras 19 Jornadas.

También es el primero que se disputa desde que en 1991 la Temporada se divide en dos Torneos cortos, con una ronda todos contra todos.

River Plate e Independiente terminaron en el primer puesto del Torneo de 1932 con 50 puntos y se enfrentaron en una Final que ganaron los riverplatenses por 3-0 con los goles anotados por Bernabé Ferreyra, Carlos Peucelle y Ricardo Zatelli.

Una Final épica fue la que protagonizaron en dos encuentros Racing y Banfield en 1951 después de compartir el liderato con 44 puntos. En el primero igualaron a cero goles y en el segundo Racing se proclamó Campeón al ganar por 1-0 con el tanto marcado por Mario "El Atómico" Boyé.

La última vez fue hace 38 años, en el Torneo Nacional de 1968, cuando tres equipos debieron disputar una Liguilla tras sumar 22 puntos: Vélez Sarsfield, Racing y River Plate.

River venció a Racing (2-0) y empató con Vélez (1-1), que logró el título al superar a los de Avellaneda (4-2).

LA VOLPE RECONOCE LA PRESIÓN CONTRA EL BOCA

El técnico de Boca Juniors, Ricardo La Volpe, reconoció que existe una gran presión en contra de su equipo con miras a la inédita final de desempate que disputará mañana contra Estudiantes por el título del Torneo Apertura.

Los Xeneizes se jugarán mañana su última oportunidad para lograr un histórico tricampeonato que se les ha estado escapando de las manos, pues podrían haberse coronado desde hace 15 días pero perdieron los últimos dos partidos del campeonato.

La Volpe explicó que a lo mejor los jugadores más jóvenes están nerviosos, "pero los grandes están mentalizados. Antes todos creían que éramos campeones y no existía la presión que habrá mañana".

Agregó que con el partido de este miércoles "vamos a poder dejar algo en claro cuál de los dos es el mejor equipo".

Boca Juniors llegará con la desventaja de haber defraudado a sus seguidores, mientras que Estudiantes jugará con el ánimo en alto por haber empujado una Final de desempate que nadie esperaba.

Sin embargo, La Volpe advirtió que su equipo tiene un ánimo espectacular y "tenemos que estar bien, al cien por cien".

Will these game be the last one for La Volpe?

Columbus reportedly eyeing Boca Juniors hero

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) - Playmaking forward Guillermo Barros Schelotto, who has won 15 titles with famed Argentina club Boca Juniors, is considering becoming the latest high-profile player to jump to the United States' Major League Soccer, two major newspapers reported Tuesday.

La Nacion newspaper said Barros Schelotto was still analyzing the US$2 million (€1.5 million) offer but seemed just "a step away from emigrating" to the Columbus Crew.

"We don't have any comment at this time," Crew spokesman Dave Stephany said.

MLS began its 12th season on Saturday and its transfer window closes on Sunday. English midfielder David Beckham is scheduled to join the Los Angeles Galaxy later this year as is Cuauhtemoc Blanco with the Chicago Fire. Former U.S. national team midfielder Claudio Reyna made his MLS debut with the New York Red Bulls on Saturday.

MLS in November adopted its "designated player rule" that allowed clubs to sign at most two players outside the league's salary cap regulations.

La Nacion said if Barros Schelotto accepts the Crew's offer, he could play his last Argentine league match in Sunday's "superclassico" between Boca and archrival River Plate.

The 33-year-old Barros Schelotto is one of Boca's most idolized players, revered for his playmaking ability and dribbling skill.

But on a Boca squad top heavy with talent that just missed winning its third straight league titles last season, his playing time has dwindled and La Nacion said he was eager to find a new team.

La Nacion said Barros Schelotto met last week with Boca president Mauricio Macri and acknowledged he wanted "a change of air." Macri reportedly said Boca would not stand in the way.

Macri had no immediately comment Tuesday on the reports in La Nacion and another in another leading daily, Clarin, that headlined "Guillermo to say farewell after River?"

Clarin, South America's top-circulation daily, said Barros Schelotto reportedly was "interested and analyzing" the offer by the Crew, citing unidentified sources close to the player.

"Barros Schelotto would be one of the stars," added Clarin, which noted Guillermo will turn 34 on May 4. It said while the MLS transfer deadline expires in five days, Barros Schelotto would be exempt and would have until next week to decide.

MLS spokesman Dan Courtemanche would not comment on the reports.

"I don't want to talk about this issue at all," Barros Schelotto told reporters.

Barros Schelotto's contract with Boca expires in June. He arrived at the Buenos Aires club in 1997 from Argentine side Gimnasia of La Plata and quickly won a huge fan following as one of Boca's most beloved players.

In nine years, Barros Schelotto has scored 87 goals in 302 matches. Among the 15 titles Barros Schelotto has won include the Copa Libertadores in 2000, 2001 and 2003 - and the world club title in 2000 and 2003.

Barros Schelotto has been losing playing time to players such as Martin Palermo and Rodrigo Palacio. Nonetheless, his appearance in games is greeted with loud ovations and long applause.

OK, around page 11 or so, you people were asking me if I'm a boca fan and the answer is yes.

And here is some news:

Argentine star signs with Columbus

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Major League Soccer locked up another high-profile international player when Argentine star Guillermo Barros Schelotto signed a two-year contract with the Columbus Crew.

Crew general manager Mark McCullers confirmed the signing on Wednesday.

The 33-year-old Barros Schelotto won 15 titles with the famed Argentina club Boca Juniors. But his playing time diminished in recent years as young, budding stars climbed the ranks with the team.

He is expected to arrive in Columbus either Sunday night or Monday morning and will spend all of next week with the Crew before returning to Argentina for a fan farewell on April 29. He will then return with his family and begin practicing with the team.

His first game would be May 5 at Kansas City and his first home game on May 12 against Chivas USA.

Barros Schelotto's signing follows the announcement of the pending arrivals of England's David Beckham to the Los Angeles Galaxy and Mexico's Cuauhtemoc Blanco to the Chicago Fire, and comes one day after the New York Red Bulls announced the acquisition of Colombian forward Juan Pablo Angel.

"It establishes credibility, it raises our profile in the international soccer market to have a player of this caliber to come to our club - and be interested in coming to our club," McCullers said. "So it accomplishes all of those things, and obviously competitively it provides us with one of the top players in the world, certainly in Argentinian football."

Barros Schelotto comes to a Crew team that had the worst record in the league last year and has failed to score in two ties so far this season.

McCullers declined to reveal salary figures. The signing was first reported by The Columbus Dispatch.

Angel will join former U.S. international midfielder Claudio Reyna at the Red Bulls, but unlike the other signings, Barros Schelotto will not join the Crew under MLS' "designated player rule."

Last November, the MLS adopted what it called its designated player rule, which allows clubs to sign international players outside the $2.1 million salary cap.

Barros Schelotto came to the Buenos Aires club in 1997 from Argentine side Gimnasia of La Plata. It didn't take long for him to become one of the nation's most popular soccer stars with almost a cult following.

He scored 87 goals in 302 matches over the next nine years. Team titles followed, including Copa Libertadores in 2000, 2001 and 2003, besides world club titles in 2000 and 2003.

Several Argentine publications have mentioned that the recently completed season might be his last for Boca Juniors. He made a late appearance on Sunday in the Superclasico, where he had made a name for himself for much of the last 10 years.

"Guille," as he is known in his native land, is one of the most decorated players in Argentina. His teams have also won six league championships.

Boca Juniors beats Velez Sarsfield 3-0

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) - Goals by Juan Roman Riquelme, Martin Palermo and Clemente Rodriguez led Boca Juniors over Velez Sarsfield 3-0 in a second-round clash of Copa Libertadores soccer on Wednesday.

Riquelme booted in the opening score in the ninth minute, beating Velez goalkeeper Gaston Sessa with a hard-angled shot from inside the area to the delight of 40,000 mainly Boca fans.
In the 24th, Sessa rushed at Boca striker Rodrigo Palacio, blocking an attempted shot with his body but hitting Palacio on the head with his foot.

Palacio, though not seriously hurt, bled from a gash on the head and referee Hector Baldassi immediately expelled Sessa. Palermo blew the ensuing penalty kick, his shot soaring high over the crossbar.

In the second half, Boca dominated play but Sessa's replacement, Sebastian Peratta, made several saves.

But in the 60th, Palermo scored off a crisply angled header after a right pass from Pablo Ledesma.

Rodriguez got the third goal with a sprint down the left flank into the area and a right-footed shot that rippled the net.

They meet next Wednesday at the Velez stadium to determine which club advances to the quarterfinals of Latin America's club championship.

Boca, a five-time Copa Libertadores champion, reached the second round after placing second in Group 7 behind Toluca of Mexico. Velez, which won the Copa Libertadores once, qualified from Group 4.

Argentine Roundup, May 6

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) - Boca Juniors edged closer to Argentine league leader San Lorenzo on Sunday, rallying from a two-goal deficit for a 3-3 draw at Argentinos Juniors to move within three points of the top.

Boca capitalized on Saturday's 2-1 loss at Velez Sarsfield by San Lorenzo, which has sat atop the Clausura table for the past four weeks. Estudiantes also climbed within three points, winning 2-1 at Nuevo Chicago on Friday.
The results left San Lorenzo atop with 31 points. River Plate was fourth with 25 points after it drew 1-1 on Sunday at home with Independiente.
In other 13th-round matches this weekend, it was: Arsenal 4, Belgrano 3 on Friday; Quilmes 2, Colon 1 and Racing 1, Banfield 1 on Saturday; while Sunday saw Newell's 1, Rosario Central 0; Lanus 1, Gimnasia Jujuy 1; and Godoy Cruz 2, Gimnasia La Plata 1.
Gonzalo Choy and Leonel Nunez gave Argentinos Juniors a 2-0 lead with goals in the 19th and 26th minutes. But Neri Cardozo's fifth goal of the season in the 32nd, Martin Palermo's league-leading 10th in the 58th, and Hugo Ibara's in the 65th rallied Boca to a 3-2 advantage.
Choy added a second in the 74th to deadlock the match.
On Saturday, Gustavo Balvorin's header and Mauro Zarate's free kick blast came nine minutes apart midway through the second half and was enough to lift Velez past San Lorenzo. Cristian Tula had San Lorenzo's lone goal in the 72nd.
Elsewhere, River Plate missed a chance to draw closer to the Clausura leaders, allowing a 52nd-minute equalizer by Independiente's Gaston Machin.
River led on an 18th-minute goal by Augusto Fernandez. Both sides finished with 10 men after Independiente's Guillermo Rodriguez was expelled in the 84th and River's Augusto Fernandez was sent off in the 90th for rough play.
Newell's Old Boys won a classic against Rosario Central as Oscar Cardozo notched the 68th-minute winner. Godoy Cruz beat Gimnasia y Esgrima with goals by Enzo Perez and Agustin Herbella. Gonzalo Silva had Gimnasia's goal from a second-half penalty kick.

Boca 3 - 3 they almost lost this game!

Calif...How do you get those sigs?

[Calif]

How?? I make them!

[Elicea]

(recap of the game they almost lost)

Grit and heart

For Boca it was an extremely complicated match against Argentinos Juniors, a team that is a very strong on its own field in the La Paternal neighborhood.

After kick-off the home team was more mobile and played better than Boca, which seemed to have trouble in finding the pace of the game. At 19' of the first half Gonzalo Choy scored with a flying header that gave Argentinos the minimum edge.

Caruso Lombardi's team took advantage of the momentum gained through its successful start and 6' later increased its edge with another header. Leonel Núñez showed up on the left side and beat Caranta. 2-0.

At the home team's best moment Boca woke up thanks to a phenomenal shot by Neri Cardozo from almost 30 meters away. The man from Mendoza succeeded in putting the ball into the net at the upper left angle of Marcelo Pontiroli' goal.

The second half took off at a much slower pace than the first one. The game was even and none of the teams created danger. Until the great striker woke up.

Martín Palermo took advantage of a poor rebound of the home defence and, without giving the ball a chance to bounce off the ground, he connected a whipping right-footer Pontiroli found impossible to stop. This established the provisional draw, but there was more to come….

Immediately afterwards Hugo Ibarra went up at midfield and fired a poisonous left-footer that found its way into the net at an angle. Boca had reverted the initial result.

But there was still time for Choy to score again with another header by anticipating the action of Boca's defence as the result of a free-kick. 3-3 turned out to be the definitive result of the match.

Boca's reaction once more proved the team's grit and winning spirit . In view of San Lorenzo's defeat against Vélez Boca is now second in the standings, trailing the leader by three points.
