Coquimbo Unido on Thursday wanted to finish celebrating a victory against Defense and Justice but the opposite happened. The pirates arrived at the National Stadium when Conmebol announced the suspension of the Copa Sudamericana semifinal due to coronavirus cases and close contacts on the campus.
The fact forced the Argentines to not be able to play, which resulted in complete chaos between the Conmebol and the ANFP. The South American entity adhered to the regulations to make the decision, but in our country the measure has been considered unfair. Not only for taking away the home of the aurinegros, but because now they are forced to play in Paraguay.
The role of Pablo Milad has been highly questioned since then, but this Saturday he tried to calm down and put on his shirt. After the triumph of Ñublense against Deportes Copiapó, the Chilean soccer president spoke with the CDF and confirmed that next week they will speak with Alejandro Domínguez.

“(Coquimbo) has the full support of our federation. We traveled on Monday to speak with the president of Conmebol. State policies must be clarified on air travel, because it can mean that no team wants to come to Chile“, he assured.
Milad not only announced the talk with Domínguez, as he will also have a meeting with Enrique Paris to see the measures for future meetings. “We are going to Conmebol to discuss this issue and also a meeting with the minister to clarify the criteria, because we did not know that everyone on the plane had to be quarantined“.
The pending matches
Another problem that comes to the ANFP in case Coquimbo Unido advances to the final, it is the schedule of its pending matches. Given this, the Chilean soccer president confessed that there is already a scheme.
“Let’s wait what happens with Coquimbo. There is plan A if they reach the final and B if not. There is a schedule delivered to the clubs for the start of the pending matches that we have“, he stressed.
Finally Milad gave the dates on which the pending duels could be scheduled. “If they reach the final, the tournament ends between 21 and 24. IF not, the second week of February“.
