Great seats at a great price! I definitely recommend attending a game just for the fun and the friendly comeptitive environment. I went with my dad and we both enjoyed the match. It was a nice way to spend a Sunday, while enjoying some father-daughter bonding time :)Written on May 28 2010

Description
The LA Galaxy will host Club Atlético Boca Juniors, one of the world’s most recognizable clubs, in an international friendly at The Home Depot Center. The Argentine giants’ honors comprise of 23 Primera División de Argentina domestic championships and 18 international trophies, a record which is equaled only by A.C. Milan and includes six Copa Libertadores titles.
“We are very excited to be hosting Argentina’s Boca Juniors, who are one of the most prestigious clubs in the world with an incredible tradition of winning championships,” said LA Galaxy President of Business Operations Tom Payne. “It is a thrilling game for our fans and one that will feature Argentina’s Riquelme and Palermo, and continues our commitment to provide our fans the chance to see the Galaxy face off against some of the best international competition.”
Boca Juniors’ roster always includes some of the best players in Argentina and South America and this season is no exception with the likes of midfielders Juan Román Riquelme and Sebastián Battaglia and forwards Martín Palermo and Nicolás Gaitán of Argentina, midfielder Gary Medel of Chile and defender Claudio Morel of Paraguay leading an attack that is currently third in the Primera División in goals scored.
Riquelme, who made his professional debut with Boca Juniors at the age of 18, has long been considered one of the best footballers of his generation. In 1997, he captained Argentina to the FIFA U-20 World Cup championship, setting off an international career that includes three World Cups, a gold medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics and six years in Spain’s La Liga, where during the 2005/06 season he helped Villarreal reached the UEFA Champions League semifinals. Riquelme returned to Boca Juniors in 2008 and promptly captained the squad to that year’s Apertura title.
Known for being a club that plays an attractive style of soccer, Boca Juniors have helped to produce some of the greatest players in the history of Argentine soccer, including Diego Maradona, Carlos Tevez, Riquelme and many more. Their game against the Galaxy – the first ever meeting between the two sides – is the first of their U.S. Tour.
