The club was relegated from the first division of the Argentine championship for the very first time in its history. However, with the addition of players like Fernando Cavenaghi, they are hoping to make a comeback into the first division pretty soon. Fernando Cavenaghi has said that the main aim of the club this season will be to win the National Championship B, which will ensure their promotion to the top flight. He also said that it is extremely important for a club like River Plate to be in the top flight of the Argentine football. River Plate is one of the well supported clubs in Argentina, but they were relegated for the first time in their history recently.

“It was a tough year for River, the worst of all time and I have no doubt that in 2012 will be different. The idea is to end up there , winning the last game and obviously expect a draw or a defeat of the Institute for being first. But a lot missing, 21 dates, “he said. Fernando Cavenaghi also said that a club like River Plate should not be in the second division for long.
