The scandal over Enzo Fernandez’s racist chants during the celebration at the 2024 Copa America final, where <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina">Argentina</a> was crowned champion of the tournament, could have serious consequences for the player.



The unfortunate live broadcast of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/enzo-fernandez">Enzo Fernandez</a> singing the controversial song against France could have harsh consequences. Beyond the widespread repudiation of fans, players and even his own teammates, the Argentine midfielder could face a sporting sanction, according to English media reports.



Fernandez has already apologized publicly, assuring that “there is absolutely no excuse” for his words and that “that video, that moment, those words, do not reflect my beliefs or my character.”



<h2>Enzo Fernandez could miss several games</h2>



The Argentine midfielder Fernandez could be suspended for up to 12 games. As explained by sports lawyer Udo Onwere in The Sun, the final decision would be in the hands of the English Association (FA), which is already investigating the case together with FIFA and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/conmebol">Conmebol</a>. The FA regulations provide for sanctions of “between six and twelve games for almost all acts of discrimination by individual participants”.

If the maximum sanction is confirmed, Fernandez would miss the start of the season with Chelsea and possibly some matches of the South American Qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup, where Argentina will face Chile and Colombia in September.

However, the sanction could also be extended to the Argentine Football Association (AFA), since there is a similar precedent with the Croatia National Team. In addition, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/fifa-world-cup">FIFA</a> could take disciplinary action at the international level. The investigation is still ongoing and the final decision on Enzo Fernandez’s future is expected to be known in the coming weeks.

A South Florida woman has filed a lawsuit for damages alleging that she and her family were unable to enter the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america">2024 Copa America</a> final between <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina">Argentina</a> and Colombia, despite having tickets.



Jackie Martinez claims she was caught up in the chaos that ensued at the gates of Hard Rock Stadium before the final match, where thousands of fans were unable to enter due to hundreds of people entering without tickets.



The match was delayed for more than an hour and 20 minutes and finally Argentina beat <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/colombia">Colombia</a> 1-0 to become continental champions. Martinez says she and her family were never able to enter and did not see the game.



<h2>What is the reason for the lawsuit against Conmebol?</h2>



Martinez claims to have paid $4,395 for four tickets for herself, her spouse, her parents and her 8-month-old son. “I really wanted to see a final. I’ve never seen a final in my entire life. My parents didn’t either. It would have been the first time. We bought the tickets when they came out. We didn’t care who was in the final, but when we found out it was Colombia, I’m from Uruguay, but my spouse is from Colombia and it was a dream come true for him. I was very excited,” she told CBS News Miami.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240719_BUS_147454_Jackie-Martinez-1-1-1024x576_efb4c51d.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-147529" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Jackie-Martinez-1-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Jackie-Martinez-1-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Jackie-Martinez-1-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Jackie-Martinez-1-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Jackie-Martinez-1-1.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Jackie Martinez files a legal complaint against Conmebol for the incidents in the final of the Copa America 2024. Capture CBS News.</figcaption></figure>



“When we arrived, it was full,” she added. Martinez says he had tickets in row 14 of section 106. “We couldn’t get in. When 7:30 p.m. came, everyone started panicking because the game was supposed to start at 8 p.m.,” she explained.



<h2>Hard Rock Stadium also involved in the legal dispute</h2>



“I feel devastated. I feel sad. It was like a dream come true for us to see a final and for us football is something important. It’s like someone buying tickets to the Super Bowl and not getting in. It was very sad for everyone. I blame the Hard Rock Stadium and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/conmebol">Conmebol</a> because they should have been prepared. They should have scanned the entrances to make sure people were getting into the parking lot and they didn’t,” Martinez said.



She and her attorney, Irwin Ast, have filed a lawsuit against Hard Rock Stadium and the Conmebol, the organizers of the event, for more than $50,000 in damages.



<h2>More lawsuits could be filed</h2>



Ast claims that he has heard from at least 30 other people who were also tricked after paying for tickets and expects more lawsuits to be filed. “It was a day they were supposed to remember forever and now, it’s a day they’ll remember forever for all the wrong reasons. They have to correct it. Too many people were injured that day by not being able to get in and spent thousands of dollars on tickets. This has hurt my customers and damaged the reputation of the area,” Ast said.



Conmebol has said it was bound by decisions made by the stadium. A spokesperson for the stadium said they had worked with law enforcement. It is expected to know if more lawsuits will be added to the one filed at this time.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Lionel Messi</a> played a crucial role for Argentina in their victory over Canada, contributing with assists and scoring opportunities. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/christian-pulisic" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Christian Pulisic</a> earned the Man of the Match award for his stellar performance against Bolivia. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/james-rodriguez" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">James Rodríguez</a> showcased a vintage performance, helping Colombia secure a 2-1 win over Paraguay.

Jesse Marsch doesn’t have it easy. The American coach in charge of the Canadian National Team has the difficult task of playing world champions <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Argentina</a> in the opening match of the 2024 Copa America.



Since taking over <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/canada" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Canada</a> after a horrific spell at Leeds United, Jesse Marsch has a 0-1-1 record, which includes a 0-0 draw with France. Argentina, on the other hand, enters the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/copa-america-2024" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Copa America</a> on a huge wave, as current Copa champions and winners of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.



The game is sold out at Mercedes-Benz Stadium and is slated to set the tone for what will be the Copa America in the United States. When it comes to history, Canada and Argentina have only played one match, in 2010.



<h2>Canada’s Only Game Against Argentina</h2>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/copa-america/why-is-thiago-almada-not-playing-for-argentina-in-copa-america-2024"></div>


Canada faced Argentina only once back in 2010, when Diego Maradona was the coach of the Argentine national team. The match took place in May 2010.

On that day, Argentina defeated Canada 5-0 with goals by Maxi Rodríguez (twice), Di Maria, Carlos Tevez, and Agüero. The match was played in Buenos Aires at the famed River Plate Estadio Monumental.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/copa-america/copa-america-2024-highest-paid-coaches"></div>


Argentina fielded the following line up: Sergio Romero; Jonas Gutierrez, Nico Burdisso, Nicolás Otamendi, Gabriel Heinze; Maxi Rodríguez, Javier Mascherano, Ángel Di María, Javier Pastore; Carlos Tévez, Gonzalo Higuaín.

Thiago Almada is one of the best young players in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mls" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Major League Soccer</a>, commanding one of the league’s highest-ever incoming transfer fees and being the only active <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america/lionel-messi-and-all-the-mls-players-at-copa-america" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MLS player</a> to have won a World Cup while playing in MLS.



Almada has been a shining light in an otherwise dismal campaign for Atlanta United, who are stuck in mid-table status with no clear direction. He has been highlight-reel material for MLS and his team, tallying 24 goals and 24 assists in 84 MLS games.



So why is this creative player not on Argentina’s squad for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Copa America</a>? The answer lies in the plans that the Argentine national team has set up for him.



<h2>Thiago Almada to the Olympics</h2>



 


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/copa-america/messis-boots-for-copa-america-2024-with-argentina-brand-model-price-special-features"></div>


Thiago Almada has been one of the top players for the Argentine U-23 team, and he will be heading to the Summer Olympics with Argentina as one of the team’s main players. That is one of the reasons why Scaloni preferred not to include Almada in the Copa America squad.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240619_BUS_134382_Lionel-Messi-and-Thiago-Almada-1024x576_49b71121.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Lionel Messi and Thiago Almada celebrate after the penalty shootout win during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 Final" class="wp-image-83538" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/11/Lionel-Messi-and-Thiago-Almada-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/11/Lionel-Messi-and-Thiago-Almada-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/11/Lionel-Messi-and-Thiago-Almada-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/11/Lionel-Messi-and-Thiago-Almada-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/11/Lionel-Messi-and-Thiago-Almada.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Lionel Messi and Thiago Almada celebrate after the penalty shootout win during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 Final</figcaption></figure>



Many national team players have permission from their clubs to participate in only one tournament this summer, and since Thiago Almada is a major star of his team, Atlanta United most likely would not have allowed him to leave for two tournaments.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/mls-2024-salaries-25-of-the-best-players-and-what-they-earn"></div>


So while Thiago Almada will not be at the Copa America, he will be competing in the Olympics for the U-23 Argentine side.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Lionel Messi</a>‘s journey in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/copa-america-2024" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Copa America</a> spans over a decade, marked by highs, lows, and ultimately triumphs that solidify his status as one of the greatest footballers in history.



Messi’s early Copa America campaigns were characterized by close calls and frustrations. Despite his individual brilliance, Argentina fell short in several tournaments, including the 2007 final where they lost to Brazil 3-0. Messi’s talent was evident, but success on the international stage remained elusive. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Argentina</a> with Messi also were defeated in 2015 and 2016. 



The turning point came in 2021, when Messi led Argentina to victory in the Copa America held in Brazil. Throughout the tournament, Messi displayed exceptional skill and leadership, guiding his team through tough matches to reach the final against Brazil.



<h2>Lionel Messi’s only Copa America title&nbsp;</h2>



In a tense and closely contested match against Brazil, Angel Di Maria’s goal secured a 1-0 victory for Argentina, marking Messi’s first major international trophy with his country. The win was particularly poignant for Messi, who had faced criticism and pressure over the years to deliver silverware for Argentina.

March 2024 Concacaf Nations League: Schedule and TV

March 2024 Concacaf Nations League: Schedule and TV - Bolavip US

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mexico">Mexico</a> lost 2-0 against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/honduras">Honduras</a> in the first leg of the 2023-2024 Concacaf Nations League quarterfinals and their spot in the 2024 Copa America might be at risk. In a very surprising statement, the Mexican team’s coach, Jaime Lozano, blamed his players for the lack of attitude in Tegucigalpa.



“No team can have more ambition than us. Never. Because if we are wearing the national jersey, we have to represent it as it deserves. I believe that is the first thing. Today, we were surpassed in that.”



Following the result, players such as Raul Jimenez from Fulham, Santiago Gimenez from Feyenoord, Hirving Lozano from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/psv">PSV</a> and Edson Alvarez from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/west-ham">West Ham</a> have been heavily criticized by the fans. They are not reaching the same level with the national team as they consistently do with their clubs in Europe. That’s why Lozano blamed the players for the defeat.



“I think we all failed as I mentioned in the locker room. They failed (the players). We (the coaching staff), possibly, didn’t make it clear how we could harm this team. Then it’s a matter of personal conviction, knowing that these scenarios are what they are. They are complicated. Many times in other environments or leagues, it’s easier to play, but here, you have to adapt.”

<h2>Concacaf Nations League: What happens if Mexico lose to Honduras?</h2>



After the 2-0 defeat in Tegucigalpa, Mexico will host Honduras in the second leg of the quarterfinals next Tuesday at Estadio Azteca. The winner of the series will advance to the semifinals of the 2023-2024 Concacaf Nations League and secure a spot in the 2024 Copa America.







If Mexico is eliminated by Honduras in the Concacaf Nations League, they will have to go to the playoffs to fight for one of the last two remaining spots in the 2024 Copa America. 


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231012#BUS#74875"></div>


Their potential opponents in those playoffs will be the losers from the remaining series of the quarterfinals: United States vs Trinidad and Tobago, Panama vs Costa Rica, and Jamaica vs Canada.



<h2>Is Mexico eliminated from the 2024 Copa America?</h2>



No. If Mexico lose to Honduras in the quarterfinals, they would indeed be eliminated from the 2023-2024 Concacaf Nations League, but they would have a final chance to reach the 2024 Copa America through the playoffs next March.
