The schedule for the quarterfinals of the Copa Sudamericana is causing heavy havoc in Chilean football, because next Tuesday the Catholic University will have to travel to Argentina to face Vélez Sarsfield, a situation that led to the suspension of the University Classic scheduled for this Sunday.
Against this background, Manuel de Tezanos in Sports in Agriculture exploded against Conmebol, as he assured that “for Católica, thinking that he arrives well at the meeting with Vélez, it is positive, but I find what Conmebol has done very negative. It seems to me that it is an absolute lack of respect to put the same team to play on Thursday closing the day and then put it on Tuesday, that is, what does Conmebol intend?“
“He knows that there are internal regulations, which make it impossible to play the game he has scheduled, he knows that there are very limited dates to organize tournaments. Perhaps the ANFP lacked having weight, lobbying, it lacked having a strong man there, but the stick is for Conmebol, they do not show any type of interest in what the soccer of their affiliates is doing, in this case, in our tournament , that there was a classic”, He added.
“La Católica played on Thursdays, always Thursdays, why now on Tuesdays? Why does it happen from Thursday to Tuesday? There are regulations of 72 hours or 48 hours, depending on each country, “he added.
“I find it a shame, I don’t know if there will still be time to correct this, because it complicates the Chilean tournament a lot. UC – Santiago Wanderers is already suspended, which had to be played next week (Thursday) and I don’t know if they will run it for Friday. The truth is, bad Conmebol in this, is the main responsible for this hecatomb ”, he sentenced.

Remember that by internal regulations there must be 72 hours of rest between each game. For this reason, the ANFP suspended the University Classic and the UC clash against Santiago Wanderers is still in doubt.
