River Plate 1986-1988 Home Short Sleeve Football Shirt [As worn by Alzamendi, Caniggia & Gallego]

This is the fully-customizable short-sleeve home kit for the River Plate 1986-1987 and 1987-1988 seasons. 1985-1986 marked perhaps the most successful season in rich River Plate’s history. River Plate completed an unimaginable treble by winning the league, Copa Libertadores, and the International Cup in 1986. This is the shirt that came for the next two seasons, in the 1986-1987 and 1987-1988 campaigns. In 1995-96, Funes played a crucial role in the historical season, as he scored 47 goals in only two seasons at the club. Funes scored in this jersey against the Colombian America in both legs of the Copa Libertadores final. What makes this even more memorable is that River and Boca were in the same group in Copa Libertadores, and River dusted Boca off, leaving them 10 points behind. Francescoli was another household name wearing this kit at the time, as he was the top scorer of the league with 25 goals to his name. In the 1996-1997 season, the peak came when River beat Steaua in the International Cup final in a 1-0 victory with Uruguayan Antonio Alzamendi as the only goalscorer.
