Violence, Riots Break Out As River Plate Relegated

Leading club River Plate was relegated to the Argentine second division for the first time in its 110-year history on Sunday, sparking ugly riots between police and fans with dozens injured inside and outside Monumental stadium.

The relegation came after a 1-1 draw with Belgrano in the second leg—Belgrano won the first leg 2-0 at home—of a demotion playoff. Mariano Pavone scored in the sixth minute for River, and Guillermo Farre equalized in the 62nd.
