A Sea of Blue and Gold Takes Over Miami Beach

The iconic shores of Miami Beach turned blue and gold as hundreds of passionate Boca Juniors fans flooded the coast to hold a massive "banderazo" in support of their team. Chanting songs, waving flags, and even deploying drones to capture the historic moment, the xeneize faithful showed the world that their devotion knows no borders.

“It’s insane! We’re right in the heart of the banderazo here in Miami Beach,” shouted a fan while surrounded by chants of “¡Otra vuelta, Boca!” and “¡Dale Boca!” Many supporters admitted they took time off work just to be present, with one proudly saying, “Boca is life.”

From children to lifelong fans, the event showcased the emotional pull of one of South America's most storied clubs. Some fans admitted they would only be able to attend three matches before returning home due to work obligations, while others simply said, “Miami belongs to Boca.”

The Twelfth Player Shows Up in Force

With drums, songs, and tears of joy, fans demonstrated why they’re known as "El jugador número 12" — the twelfth player. The atmosphere was electric, with spontaneous interviews revealing fans' love for club legends like Juan Román Riquelme, and heartfelt confessions like, “I came to see my best friends. This is beautiful. Enjoy it.”

As the team gets ready for their Club World Cup debut, the message from their fans is clear: win or lose, Boca Juniors will never walk alone — especially not in Miami.
