Los Millonarios — The entry claims Millonarios won the 'Golden Wedding Championship' against Real Madrid in 1952, but this was a commemorative match, not a formal championship, and the venue was Estadio Chamartín, not the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium as named at the time.
Los Millonarios — The entry states the team debuted with three Argentine players on 28 January 1939 against Antioquia, marking the first time a Bogotá squad played with foreign talent, and the 'DID YOU KNOW' section says this was the first time a team from Bogotá (and Colombia)
La Guardia Imperial — The claim that the nickname 'La Guardia Imperial' was coined by journalist Luis María Albamonte is a factual error; it is widely attributed to journalist Félix Frascara.
La Guardia Imperial — The claim that the hooligan faction formed in 1958 under the name 'La Barra de la Bandera' is not verifiable; the organized barra brava emerged later, typically in the 1980s or 1990s.
La Barra Brava — The entry states that the 1958 death of Alberto Mario Linker occurred after River Plate fans threw stones and a knife that injured a goalkeeper, and that he died during riots outside the stadium. In established canon, the 1958 incident at the José Amalfitani S
La Barra Brava — The entry claims that the term 'barra brava' first appeared in Argentine newspapers at the end of the 1920s, and that it was first used together in newspapers at the end of the 1920s. While the term has early origins, established canon typically traces the fir
Estadio Monumental — The 'Did You Know' section states the stadium hosted the 1978 World Cup final where Argentina defeated the Netherlands 3-1 in extra time, but the match ended 3-1 in regular time, not extra time.
El Monumental de Núñez — The stadium's modernization between 2016 and 2019 did not expand capacity; it actually reduced capacity from approximately 66,000 to around 84,000? Wait, the capacity was increased, but the claim 'expanding capacity while preserving its historic structure' is
El Monumental de Núñez — The claim that during the 1930s it was one of the largest stadiums in the world outside of Europe is inaccurate because the stadium opened in 1938, so it was only in the late 1930s for a short time.
Blanco y Rojo — The claim that the red sash was adopted in 1915 is inaccurate; the widely accepted canon states the red diagonal sash was adopted in 1932, not 1915.
Blanco y Rojo — The phrase 'return to the A-division' is factually incorrect because River Plate was never relegated before 2011, so there was no earlier return to the top division.
Founding of Club Atlético River Plate — The club was not founded from a merger of Santa Rosa and La Rosales; that is a myth, and the actual founding was by a group of young men on May 25, 1901.
Founding of Club Atlético River Plate — The club moved to the Núñez neighborhood in 1923, not the Belgrano district.
Estadio Monumental Antonio Vespucio Liberti — The stadium was renamed 'Estadio Monumental Antonio Vespucio Liberti' in 1986, not 1995.
Estadio Monumental Antonio Vespucio Liberti — Major renovations were not completed for the 2014 Copa Libertadores final, as River Plate did not host that final; renovations were for the 2015 and 2018 Copa Libertadores finals.
