Lionel Messi was the special guest at the farewell match for Juan Román Riquelme, Boca Juniors' greatest idol, even above Diego Maradona, on Sunday at La Bombonera stadium.

Riquelme was the captain of the team of legends of Boca and Messi, of the legends of Argentine national team, such as Ángel Di María, Leandro Paredes and head coach Lionel Scaloni.

Boca's team, which won 5-3, included historical figures from the club such as Oscar Córdoba, Jorge Bermúdez and Mauricio Serna and were led by multi-champion head coach Carlos Bianchi.

Among the guests were also Pablo Aimar, Luis González, Juan Pablo Sorín and Javier Saviola, former River Plate players, a classic rival of Boca, but friends of Riquelme. The veteran Alfio Basile and José Pekerman gave the orders on the national team's bench.

Riquelme, 45, left professional soccer in 2015. He is currently vice president of Boca and head of professional soccer. He decided to organize the match in the last year of his administration before the elections, in which he is likely to seek a new term.
