Conmebol scheduled for Wednesday, May 19 (9:00 pm) at the Alfonso López Stadium the match of the fifth date of Group H of the Copa Libertadores between América from Cali and Deportivo La Guaira, from Venezuela, after the events that occurred In Barranquilla.
However, Pedro Carrillo, manager of Inder Santander, the entity that manages the stage, told FUTBOLRED that there is no problem on the stage, but everything will depend on the response of the municipal authorities of Bucaramanga.
“We lend the stadium without problem, but you have to look at what the Local Security Council says, since we have a lot of UCI occupation, that’s why games have not been scheduled again here,” said Carrillo.
In any case, the official pointed out that “we would have to wait for what the Security Council says in the meeting on Tuesday afternoon, we lend the stadium, but what has to do with security is with the Secretary of the Interior of Bucaramanga.”
However, taking into account that there is a festive bridge and given the proximity of the match, due to all these conditions the option of the Santander capital could be canceled, since that same day the two teams must be at the headquarters.
Nor can it be forgotten that those who protest in the national strike have repeated on several occasions that football must stop, and for this reason they committed the excesses that transcended internationally in the Junior vs. River Plate and America vs. Athletic Mineiro.
On this issue, the journalist Carlos ‘Petiso’ Arango, who is close to Tulio Gómez, published on his twitter account that the commitment will be held in Santa Cruz de la Sierra, a Bolivian city whose climate resembles that of Cali. The referee assigned for this commitment is the Argentine Darío Herrera.
America is the top of the key with just 1 point of 12 disputed – practically eliminated, as recognized by the same technician in charge, Jersson González, since Atlético Mineiro adds 10 units and Cerro Porteño 7- and will have to win the two remaining games to find a ticket to the South American Cup.
