A football classic usually paralyzes a city, yes. But also a recital by an emblem of music like Juan Carlos ‘La Mona’ Jiménez. For this reason the Professional League was forced to do so anticipate the program of the duel at the top of the province of Córdoba between Belgrano AND Workshopswhich will remain on Saturday at the Mario Alberto Kempes stadium, but will pass from 10pm to 7.30pm. This will also force us to castle the match between Sarmiento de Junín AND Central Barrackswhich will be played in the last round of the seventh round of the League Cup on Saturday.
“At the request of the Cordoba security bodies and with the support of both clubs, the match between Belgrano and Talleres will be played on Saturday 24th at 7.30pm (it was scheduled for 10.00pm)”indicated the Professional League on its official account on the social network X (formerly Twitter).

The Ministry of Security of Córdoba, led by Juan Pablo Quinterosthanked the predisposition of the president of the Argentine Football Federation (AFA), Claudio Tapiaand the authorities of both clubs, Luis Artime AND Andrés Fassi, “for having participated in this process of permanent dialogue and joint work, with the aim of ensuring the safety of the participants, the professionals of both teams and the citizens in general”.
“In a context of unfavorable socioeconomic deterioration, and therefore of growing social conflict, “The parties believe that holding the classic will minimize risks and contribute to the logistics of a safety system in line with the magnitude of this sporting event,” he said in a statement.
The reason for the change is that Carlos ‘La Mona’ Jiménez will give two recitals on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and having two spectators of 50,000 people a few kilometers apart and with the possibility of shouting for the goal could cause disturbances.
