The risk was stipulated and assumed: the party that Racing had organized to receive the South American Cup could bring consequences of sanction and closure. After what River showed for Libertadores, the Academy was not far behind and showed a unique show. It was a party that traveled the world and quickly went viral. Even in Brazil they echoed the great reception that Costas’ team had, which ended up eliminating Corinthians. But of course, the day after the party comes the hangover. Aprevide appeared and threatened with a sanction.
The statement that warns that a sanction and closure is coming to the Racing field
This Friday, the Agency for the Prevention of Violence in Sports reported that “it is investigating the events that took place in the match between Racing and Corinthians for a place in the final of the Copa Sudamericana.” What complaint? Improper use of pyrotechnics inside the stadium, which left 20 people injured, registered by the event’s medical care service. It is for this reason that he assures that he is analyzing the security cameras to observe the accesses to identify who allowed the entry of the prohibited elements. “A serious sanction is being evaluated that could include the total closure of the Racing stadium,” as reported in the Aprevide statement.
Two inspections that had been negative
According to the organization, those in charge of security carried out two previous inspections on the field and at the headquarters of the Fan Subcommittee at different times and the results had been negative. “The Aprevide authorities will apply a harsh sanction to the sports entity for failure to comply with the security measures that affected the development of the show and put at risk the physical integrity of the public, the protagonists and actors participating in an event of this magnitude.” Is there a sanction and closure coming to the Cilindro for the next Racing matches?
