In this first week of April 2024, the first date of the group stage of the Conmebol Libertadores took place. However, there is not much to celebrate for the return of the most important international club competition in America, since unfortunately two reprehensible events occurred that undoubtedly caused a lot of controversy.
Argentina was the epicenter country of episodes based on acts of physical violence and racism. Specifically, in the match on Wednesday, April 3, between San Lorenzo de Almagro and Palmeiras, a woman who is already trying to be identified, made gestures towards some Brazilian players, emulating a monkey or gorilla.
Furthermore, in the match on Thursday the 4th between Rosario Central and Peñarol, serious violent incidents arose between the bars of both teams and a serious injury to the face of a player from the Uruguayan club by throwing a stone.
