Overview
- The March 27 match in Doha is in serious doubt due to the regional conflict, with London and Lisbon under review as alternative neutral venues.
- RFEF says most players are Europe‑based, has canceled two planned charters to Qatar, and rules out Madrid or Barcelona to preserve neutrality.
- Rosario Central visits Argentinos Juniors without Ángel Di María and Franco Ibarra as Jorge Almirón confirms five changes, including Jaminton Campaz starting; Enzo Copetti is out with a left adductor tear.
- Monterrey fell 3-2 at home to Cruz Azul in the Concacaf Champions Cup after a late red card to goalkeeper Santiago Mele forced Stefan Medina into goal; the away leg in Puebla requires a win by two or specific high‑scoring margins under the away‑goals rule.
- Boca Juniors drew 1-1 with San Lorenzo through goals by Santiago Ascacíbar and Gregorio Rodríguez, stays in the Group A qualification places, and next visits Unión on March 22 with Yael Falcón Pérez as referee.
