Overview
- The Godoy Cruz–Independiente Rivadavia final was called off moments before kickoff due to overcrowding and the presence of barras bravas outside Gutiérrez Sport Club.
- The Liga Mendocina had imposed a restricted entry list of 150 people per club with names and national IDs, but crowds accumulated beyond the planned control perimeter.
- The league publicly blamed police for the stoppage, while the Mendoza Security Ministry issued a statement holding the league responsible for the failed organization.
- League president Omar Sperdutti issued a communiqué faulting Women’s Commission chief Giuliana Díaz, saying he will propose bringing forward elections and that he may step aside.
- Players from both teams posed together on the pitch to protest the decision, as calls grew for government intervention following earlier complaints, including reports of forged medical certificates under judicial review.
