This Friday, Conmebol issued the respective fines to the teams competing in the 2024 Copa América, highlighting the suspension of Ricardo Gareca in La Roja and Lionel Scaloni in Argentina, respectively.
In the case of the Argentine coach, it is already known that he will not be able to direct the duel that the ‘Albiceleste’, already qualified for the next round of the continental tournament, will play on Saturday, June 29 against Peru from 9:00 p.m. Chile time.
In this regard, TyC Sports detailed that Lionel Scaloni not only received the sanction, but also, a fine of 15 thousand dollars by the governing body of South American football for coming on late in the second half against La Roja, in the second match of Group A played last Tuesday.
It should be noted that the ‘Albiceleste’ spent more than 20 minutes between leaving the field and stepping on the grass again in their inaugural Copa América match against Canada, which unleashed fury and suspicion of a ‘trick’ on the part of the Coach of the North American team, Jesse Marsch.
