The Argentine Super Cup will be played outside the country for the first time on January 20 in Abu Dhabi, when Boca Juniors face Racing Club, according to the country’s football organization (AFA).
In June 2022, the AFA and the Abu Dhabi Sports Council (ADSC) inked a four-year cooperation to host a series of football matches between the two countries.
“After the first successful experience of Argentina’s last friendly match with the United Arab Emirates National Team right before the commencement of the World Cup,” AFA said in a statement on Thursday.
Boca Juniors won the league title in October, and Racing Club won the Champions Cup in November.
