The official statement from the AFA on the definitive suspension of the postponed Argentina-Brazil
“AFA informs that, within the framework of the disciplinary process for the incidents that occurred in the game Brazil-Argentina from September 5, 2021, AFA, CBF Y FIFA have resolved the dispute before the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).
The AFA and the CBF have accepted their respective responsibilities for the events that gave rise to the suspension of the Match, as verified by the FIFA Judicial Bodies, and that they must assume the corresponding sanction.
As a consequence, AFA was ordered to pay a total fine of CHF 150,000, half of which was suspended for a probationary period of two years.
Half of the fine to be paid (25% of the total fine) will be donated directly by AFA to the World Health Organization (WHO), in support of its ongoing efforts to combat COVID-19.
Finally, the Brazil-Argentina match will no longer be played, so the corresponding date will allow our team to play a friendly match in preparation for the Qatar 2022TM World Cup instead.
AFA would like to thank FIFA for their readiness and availability to resolve this issue under these very specific circumstances and in a short period of time.”
