The Ministry of Justice and Security will provide 80 police officers this Wednesday, 27th for the final of the Apertura of the Santafesina League in San Justo.

The provincial director of Security in Mass Events, Fernando Peverengo, provided details of the security operation arranged by the Ministry of Justice and Security of Santa Fe for the classic match between Sanjustino and Colón de San Justo, which will be played this Wednesday, August 27th, starting at 8 pm for the final of the Apertura Tournament of First A Marcos Méndez.

Peverengo reported that there will be 80 police officers in charge of the security of the classic match between the teams from the city of San Justo. The operation will start at 8 pm, at the Coloso del Oeste stadium, of the Sanjustino Club. The opening of the stadium and the start of the device will be at 7 pm. Sanjustino supporters will enter through 9 de Julio street, and those from Colón through Independencia.

"We have to make it clear, as we always say, that it is a private event, even though it is popular, it is still a private event. Having said this, we had a view of how this final of the Santafesina League should be played, considering that both teams are from the city of San Justo. Due to the condition of the route, the night, for us it was a clearly avoidable situation," began Fernando Peverengo.

In the entrance hall to the Ministry of Security, the official noted that "there were points of disagreement, and it was determined by draw that it would be in San Justo, then in the same way the field, and prior agreement because the Sanjustino field has less capacity for the visitor, we closed on the number of 600 people in case it was Sanjustino, and it was going to be respected in case it had been drawn in Colón de San Justo".

"It ended up being resolved that the match is played in Sanjustino, with that number of people, and that the doors will open one hour in advance. We are on top of that match, because we want to take care of everyone, regardless of whether it is the Santafesina League that is responsible. We know perfectly well how it is being lived in these hours in the city of San Justo, and for that reason, our contribution, is to work as we always do," added Peverengo.

The official from the provincial security portfolio indicated that "with the contribution of our police, we think about the match, but also about the neighbor, so that it is not a torment for people not to have to suffer it. Obviously it is a football match, and tomorrow we will be talking about what was the final of the Santafesina League in the city of San Justo and not about another matter".

"We are going to work the operation with approximately 80 officers, which is the service that we understand is necessary. It has to do with everything. It is not just the procedure on the field, but also the different points to reinforce in the city, which has to do with transfers, how people are going to move," highlighted the provincial director of Security in Mass Events.

Peverengo was clear in stating that "we seek not to undermine security for a football match. Quite the contrary. Some areas of the city are even more reinforced, in addition to deploying more police for a sporting and massive event like the one on Wednesday in the city of San Justo". "We consider football to be high risk, regardless of whether you play with local and visiting public," the provincial official made clear.
