The atmosphere surrounding the Club World Cup match between River Plate and Monterrey was charged, not only by anticipation for the game itself but also by a vocal reminder from the Mexican contingent. Fans of Rayados de Monterrey seized the opportunity to rekindle an old rivalry, directly referencing River Plate's historic relegation to Argentina's second division.

In the build-up to the anticipated clash, a video circulated widely showing Monterrey supporters chanting a familiar tune that has long haunted the Argentine giants. The lyrics, clear and unequivocal, directly address River Plate's painful past: "Ya lo sabe toda Argentina, ya lo sabe Monterrey, pobrecitos los de River que se fueron a la B" – which translates to "All of Argentina knows it now, Monterrey knows it now, poor River boys who went to 'B' [the second division]."

This chant, widely recognized in South American football circles, serves as a pointed reminder of the 2011 season when River Plate, one of Argentina's most storied clubs, was relegated from the top flight, a significant moment in the club's extensive history. For Monterrey fans, it became a provocative tool to rattle their opponents and establish a psychological edge ahead of the match.

The footage, captured in the vicinity of the stadium, underscored the intense passion and the historical memory that permeates football rivalries. While the match itself was expected to be a competitive affair on the pitch, the pre-game theatrics from the stands added an extra layer of narrative. The Monterrey faithful demonstrated their intent to get under the skin of the River Plate players and supporters, using a well-known chapter of their rivals' history as ammunition.

This kind of fan behavior, though sometimes controversial, is a common element in major football tournaments, where supporters from different leagues and countries converge. It highlights the deeply ingrained histories and rivalries that travel across continents, even to a neutral venue like the Club World Cup. The chant from the Monterrey fans served as a bold statement, ensuring that River Plate's past descent was front of mind for those involved in the encounter.

The incident was widely reported across media platforms, particularly in Argentina and Mexico, where the rivalry and the historical context are well understood. It underscored the fact that in football, the drama isn't confined to the 90 minutes on the field; it often begins much earlier in the stands, fueled by passion and historical memory.
