AFA and Argentine clubs uphold strike, set date for postponed games | OneFootball

After a handful of days filled with uncertainty about what might happen with the Argentine football schedule from Thursday, March 5 to Sunday, March 8, it was finally confirmed that AFA will hold a strike in all categories, from the First Division to the regional amateur leagues, for those upcoming days.

In a meeting held this Tuesday at noon at the Lionel Andrés Messi Complex in Ezeiza, the strike for this weekend was ratified across all Argentine football, which will take place as a protest against the alleged tax evasion charges brought by ARCA (Revenue and Customs Control Agency) against the governing body of football.

In other words, the clubs chose to show solidarity with Claudio Tapia and the AFA against the attacks from the National Government of Javier Milei against the authorities of the Argentine Football Association. With the confirmation of the strike, the leaders of each club voted and chose when this postponed date will be played: May 3.

Amid a tight schedule, AFA decided that this matchday will take place once the league phase concludes, and will be played in the week before the start of the playoffs.
