River’s players shared a unique day together with the All Blacks in the Monumental: there were challenges and games with football and rugby balls.
This Friday morning, once more River Plate welcomed the All Blacks (who trained on Thursday in the Monumental in view of the upcoming round of the Rugby Championship) and experienced a unique and unmissable day from the hand of adidas, which dresses both teams: football players from the "millionaire" professional squad joined, in the Stadium, with the players of New Zealand’s national rugby team to share games and challenges.
Rodrigo Mora, Augusto Batalla, Gonzalo Martínez, Arturo Mina, Joaquín Arzura and one of the promises of the breeding ground (Benjamín Rollheiser, from the Seventh Division), together with Malakai Fekitoa, Israel Dagg, Brodie Retallick, Samuel Whitelock, Julian Savea and Aaron Smith participated in several games: power competition, lines (in which Gonzalo Martínez and Rodrigo Mora, very amused, were lifted), drop, passes, conversions and lineout.Of course, with football and rugby balls.
Then, Rodolfo D’Onofrio, president of the Club, greeted them and witnessed the exchange of both teams shirts, precisely black (River’s new away shirt, launched last Wednesday), autographed.Entertained and relaxed, all the sportsmen took pictures and talked to the press.
