While waiting for FIFA to be issued on an appeal by the Argentine Football Association, the match that Brazil and Argentina had to play for Date 6 of the South American Qualifiers is still pending. However, as reported in Australia, this commitment could be carried out at Melbourne Cricket Ground Stadium in Melbourne on 11 June at 6.45 a.m.
In the last few hours, the official site of the venue confirmed a Superclassic of the Americas, although it did not clarify whether it was a friendly or the pending official duel. Anyway, the information has already been denied from Argentina within hours of the opening of ticket sales. “Football fans in Melbourne and across Australia will witness the amazing skills of football giants Brazil and Argentina live as the two teams face off for the 2022 Superclassic at the MCG on June 11,” they said.
This news took the federations of both teams by surprise, who were not officially issued despite the fact that tomorrow morning the tickets for the match presented as a new edition of the Superclassic of the Americas would go on sale.
As Infobae was informed from the surroundings of the albiceleste, the meeting is far from being a reality. In the National Team there is “no confirmation whatsoever” on this issue and, at the same time, they clarified that by the scheduled indoors it sounds “complex” for the Scaloneta to travel to Australia. The Brazilian press, for its part, revealed that the Brazilian Football Confederation “remains cautious when it comes to confirming this match.”
The official site of the venue announced that “tickets for the general public will be on sale from Thursday, April 21” from 2pm in Australia (1AM in Argentina).
It is worth noting that this would not be the first time that both teams met at the MCG, since they met in 2017. On that occasion, in front of 95,569 spectators (the highest record in this venue for a football game, beating the friendly between Liverpool and Melbourne Victory in 2013), Albiceleste won 1-0 with a goal by Gabriel Mercado at the start of the Jorge Sampaoli era.
The Melbourne Cricket Ground website also features statements from Martin Pakula, Minister of Tourism, Sports and Major Events, who said: “That two of the most successful football teams in the world return to the MCG to continue their long-standing rivalry reinforces our position as one of the major sports cities in the world world and the events capital of Australia”.
For his part, Melbourne Cricket Club CEO Stuart Fox commented on the same site: “They are two giants who return to the MCG to dazzle football and sports fans in general from Melbourne and Australia; and no less than in a year of the World Cup.” Then, on July 15 and 19, Manchester United and Crystal Palace will face a series of friendlies against Melbourne Victory.
After the Copa America final, in which Argentina was proclaimed champion by winning 1-0 with a goal by Angel Di Maria, both teams last met on November 16 of last year, for the South American Playoffs. It was 0 to 0 in the Bicentennial of San Juan.
