ustedes también será muy complicado poder opinar de este tema. En los últimos años nos

adept at getting on the nerves of sides from bigger countries, and a visit to Asunción in the

club actually got through to the knockout stages of this year's competition (I know what some
readers are bound to say, but Boca's place in the last 16 isn't 100% secure quite yet). A 0-0 draw
