According to media reports, the Brazilian football team has decided to participate in the Copa America tournament.
“Players will announce their decision after Tuesday’s World Cup match against Paraguay,” dpa reports. However, the players’ manifest will also contain a critique of the choice of venue.
A few weeks before the start, Argentina and Colombia decided to give up the right to host the event due to the pandemic and political situation. The South American confederation CONMEBOL subsequently chose Brazil as the new venue, which led to a massive wave of criticism.
The country, like the original hosts of the championship, is currently battling a coronavirus pandemic. However, despite safety concerns, Argentina will eventually participate in the organization of the tournament.
