  1. The only correct decision. All efforts are aimed to flatten the curve and prevent hospital shortages in IC. Football can wait until we can all enjoy it and not have thousands dying.

  2. Disappointing indeed.
    But let’s not get all negative. Remember that Argentina is in a rebuilding phase and this gives Scaloni 12 WCQ games before Copa America, instead of just 2, to further develop the team. It also means another season of our young players developing in clubs, and 2 transfer windows which could see Argentines moving to better clubs and leagues. Hopefully, this is a blessing in disguise for us.

  3. As all the matches are rgularly happening in Argentina.So there is no need to postpone the schedule.And there is chance that some cure can be found soon so they should have wait more as there are many countries claiming they have found cure only World Health Organisation needs to confirm it

  4. disappointed but hope scaloni will use this one year time to integrate the many upcoming young talents like in the defence -licha martinez,nehuen perez,cristian romero,sensi and balerdi because surely otamendi wont be the player he once was and pezzella im not sure but for god sake no rojo again no need kanemann.hope nico tagliafico gets to join a bigger club

    in goalkeeper positions hope scaloni integrates walter benitez,rulli and musso hope benitez joins inter as it wud increase his chances to earn call up

    midfielders we are spoilt for choices as in europe we have young talents as well as in argentina superliga hope paredes leaves psg to get more play time.

    in attack department also soo many upcoming talents in europe and the superliga also if lautaro happens to join barca or man city he cud start developing a partnership with messi or aguero.

    the only positions where scaloni needs to dig deep into the superliga is the position of defensive midfield and obviously the full backs we all cud hope ascacibar finds form next season for hertha
