MEN’S TENNIS WORLD number one and two Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic put the rackets aside as they paid a visit to Boca Junior’s La Bombonera yesterday.
After being paraded around the famous stadium during half-time of Boca’s surprise 2-0 defeat to All Boys, the pair took part in a penalty competition. While the home crowd got behind eventual winner Nadal, Djokovic came in for a bit of stick.

An incredible season in one of the most challenging managerial jobs in LOI. UCD don’t have the budget or benefactors of other clubs. Working from a small pool it’s all about getting young players in and playing probably ahead of where they would normally be and then by the time they are established they’ve finished college and gone.
The best talent may well get snapped up earlier like Scales and Farrugia.
Well done on a great achievement.
