Boca Juniors, Trofeo Gamper opponents for Barça on August 15
Se disputará en “horario familiar”, anunció el portavoz del club azulgrana después de la reunión de la Junta Directiva azulgrana. Sexta participación de Boca en el Gamper.
FC Barcelona have officially confirmed that Argentine giants Boca Juniors will be the opponents as part of the club's traditional Trofeo Joan Gamper, which will be played at camp Nou on August 15, three days after the Catalan club's participation in the Spanish Super Cup where they face Sevilla FC.
The Gamper friendly will kick-off at 18:00 CEST, an earlier time slot than the traditional later starts and will avoid clashing with the UEFA Super Cup game as Real Madrid face Atlético in Tallin.
Boca Juniors were involved in the semi-finals of the Trofeo Gamper in 1967, 1977 and 1984 (when the Gamper was a four team event) and also lost to the Catalan side in 2003 and 2008.
