It turns out that the famous headquarters of the Copa América 2021 has become, over the days, a real ‘hot potato’ for Conmebol, which has already lost the headquarters of Colombia and now has that of Argentina at risk.
The country that, according to the plan, should host all the competition, is again in strict quarantine due to the increase in cases of covid 19 and in the last hours 24,601 new infections and 576 deaths. The health system situation is very complex and it is expected that 5 more days will be added to the 9 days of total isolation ordered by the local government, which in the last hours produced numerous protests in several cities.
“Do not make the stupidity of doing the Copa América in Argentina, it is a very great ass touch for the people, let Paraguay, Chile do it, we cannot, we have a lot of problems,” said journalist Alejandro Fantino in his program on America TV.
And then, to attack Conmebol, he ended up pointing out Colombia, a country that lost its headquarters due to its internal problems last week: “Conmebol is moving forward, they don’t care about anything, they were shooting each other in Colombia and they are playing a soccer game, nothing matters, to Conmebol to Domínguez “
“I am absolutely against the organization of the Copa América in Argentina,” said the analyst, clarifying that his position is personal and not of the medium.
In this way, Conmebol is exposed to also losing the headquarters that it has left to organize the Copa América and it already ensures that this Wednesday there will be a last-minute inspection of the stadiums in Chile to verify whether or not it can, in the face of the critical situation, organize the competition. Postpone as requested by Colombia and even Argentina? Cancel the tournament? None of that is in the plans. The Cup goes … now we have to establish where.
