Belgrano vs. Newell’s Copa Argentina Quarterfinal Set for Sept. 17 at La Pedrera

Security pressures, plus a Santa Fe sanction on Belgrano supporters, shaped the neutral-site choice.

Overview

  • Organizers confirmed the match for Wednesday, Sept. 17 at 18:00 in Estadio Parque La Pedrera in Villa Mercedes, San Luis.
  • The decision ends days of deliberation that had included alternatives such as Juan Gilberto Funes and Madre de Ciudades.
  • Newell’s had floated Buenos Aires and Santa Fe, but those proposals were set aside by tournament planners.
  • A two-year measure in Santa Fe limits Belgrano fans from bringing flags and drums, complicating the Colón stadium option.
  • Ticket sale modalities and prices will be announced in the coming days, as both clubs advance seeking a semifinal berth.
