Season events

On May 23, 2002, Manuel Pellegrini was presented as new manager of River Plate.[1]

On July 22, midfielder Lucho González moved from Huracán to River Plate. The transfer was made for US$700,000.[2]

On June 15, 2003 during Round 16 of Torneo Clausura 2003, River Plate defeated Lanús and because Velez and Boca tied games, finished the match day as sole leaders.[3]

On June 29, during Round 18, River defeated Olimpo in Bahía Blanca and won the championship, by getting a difference of 4 points to rivals Boca Juniors, with only 1 round to go.[4]
