Atlético Tucumán
2nd in Argentine Liga Profesional de Fútbol2024 Schedule
Argentina top-flight club Vélez Sarsfield suspended four players on Thursday after a woman accused them of raping her last week.
Midfielder Andres Balanta, who played for Atletico Tucuman, died on Tuesday during a training session for the Argentine first division team.
Atletico Tucuman were in it against Gremio until a video replay led to a red card and, eventually, a 2-0 defeat.
Argentina's representatives were at a disadvantage in the early rounds of this year's Copa Libertadores. Now, they have a chance to fight back.
"There are no words for what happened at the airport.Someone stopped our plane for two hours. Two hours! And here you have the result," Lavallen said.
Atletico Tucuman are through to the next stage of the Copa Libertadores. But why are they wearing Argentina jerseys?
