Panini Apertura 2005 (Argentina)


         
The Apertura 2005 was the first tournament of the Primera Division championship 2005/2006, followed by the Clausura 2006. All of the 20 competing teams played once against each other. Boca Juniors of Rodrigo Palacio (10 goals) won the title with 40 points in 19 games. The best scorer of the tournament was Javier Campora (Tiro Federal, 13 goals). In this tournament we found some young Argentinian rising stars (Lavezzi, Aguero, Palacio) and some legends at the end of their football career (Pablo Montero and Diego Simeone).
The sticker collection Apertura 2005 is the second official album of the Argentinian league produced by Panini, following the first ever release Panini Clausura 2005. The album has a simple layout, including two pages and 16 stickers for each of the 20 competing clubs and no extra sections with stickers. For each club there are two special stickers: the club badge printed on a transparent foil and the caricature of the star player on a metallic foil. All the player stickers (12 per team) are “in action”, as usual for the first Argentinian Panini albums. A particular feature of this album is that club pages include also a photo of players in action in which there are three gaps that are completed by three different stickers (often player faces or feet).
