Finalissima could be on neutral ground, Santiago Bernabeau proposal refused

The Finalissima is set to be played on March 27 and with the ongoing conflict in Qatar, the match is set to be moved.

Argentina against Spain was rumored to be played in Portugal but a new venue has been proposed. According to Gastón Edul, the AFA have rejected the proposal of the match being played at the Santiago Bernabeau in Spain.

The AFA would want the match to be played at a neutral venue. According to Esteban Edul, the contract is that the CONMEBOL and UEFA each can market two Finalissima matches.

For the 2026 Finalissima, UEFA gave the rights to Qatar but now the bidding went to the Santiago Bernabeau. CONMEBOL are refusing to play the match in Spain as Argentina would be the away team.

London and Portugal are alternatives but there is not much time to resolve it. The solutions would be that CONMEBOL agree to play the match at the Santiago Bernabeau or the match is moved to a neutral venue or the match is suspended and played at a later date.

Julián Álvarez has spoken about his future at Atletico Madrid and if he will be remaining with the club.

Álvarez scored two goals and had one assist for Atletico Madrid in their 5-2 win against Tottenham Hotspur in the Champions League. The Argentine has consistently been linked with a move away from the club since the start of the season and speaking with Diario AS, here is what he had to say about his future:

“I have nothing to say. These are things that get talked about, there’s a lot of talk on social media too, everyone posts their opinion, it all blows up. I never said anything, I’m fine here, very happy, competing in all the competitions,

“What do I know? Maybe yes, maybe no, you never know. I’m very happy here. It’s a question that keeps coming up, but I’m happy. I’m focused on the day-to-day, working to improve and give my all. I never said anything bad about the club. I’m very grateful; the people showed me their affection, and I’m very happy.”

Julián Álvarez scores twice, assists for Atletico Madrid in 5-2 win vs. Tottenham Hotspur

Julián Álvarez scored twice and had one assist for Atletico Madrid in their 5-2 win against Tottenham Hotspur.

Álvarez made it seven goals and three assists in 10 Champions League matches with Atletico Madrid. With the score at 0-0, Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Antonín Kinský slipped and the ball would end up with Álvarez who would pass it to Antoine Griezmann and he would score Tottenham’s first goal of the match.

With Atletico Madrid leading 2-0, once more, it was a mistake from the Tottenham goalkeeper and Álvarez would get to the ball and score to give Atletico Madrid the 3-0 lead. With Atletico leading 4-1, Álvarez scored a goal we had seen before from him.

The Argentine would score a near repeat goal of the one he scored with the Argentina national team in the semi finals of the 2022 World Cup against Croatia where he ran the length of the pitch and scored his second goal of the match.

Nicolás González was substituted into the match for Álvarez while Giuliano Simeone started the match for Atletico Madrid.
