Belgrano de Córdoba was one step away from promotion but there is anger: he will not be able to bring the fans to the consecration match

to a victory Belgrano of Cordoba to ensure his return to the first division of Argentine football after three and a half years. That victory could come on Sunday when he visits Adrogue Brown by the 35th and penultimate day of First National. The desire of the management Pirate is that a part of his fans can accompany the team on this excursion, but the possibility seems definitively closed.

Fans of clubs that play in the promotion categories bring, except in exceptional situations, three decades without being able to see their teams away from home. There have been some eases in that regard this season: A good handful of Belgrano fans, crudely presented as neutral, attended José María Minella in Mar del Plata to see the 1-0 win over Alvarado in June. And last month, 8,500 Instituto fans watched the 1-1 with Güemes at the Madre de Ciudades in Santiago del Estero.

With these antecedents and on the basis of the enormous expectation that was generated earlier in Cordoba the possibility of guaranteeing promotion over the weekend the management of the Barrio Alberdi club, led by its president, Luis Fabian Artimehas started moving in the last few hours to negotiate with his Brown peers the approval to bring Adrogué to the public and even the possibility of moving the game to a larger stadium than the Lorenzo Arandilla, with capacity for only 4,500 spectators.

“We hope that management can be done. They haven’t told me anything yet, they just talked upstairs. There must be several parties in agreement, “said Artime on Monday evening, minutes after the 3-0 win over Defensores de Belgrano in Alberdi who left the team led by William Farre one step away from the climb.

“Belgrano deserves to crown it in the best possible way, the people deserve it. We hope to be able to go with a neutral audience “, the former scorer was excited, who recalled the massive mobilizations of fans for the parties that the Light blue competed this year for the Argentine Cup against Platense (in La Rioja), Estudiantes de La Plata (in Santa Fe) and Godoy Cruz (in San Luis).

Artime’s delusion (or his intention to pressure the authorities to receive a favorable response) was soon met with an emphatic denial from Eduardo AparicioHead of the Agency for the Prevention of Violence in Sport (Keep) of the province of Buenos Aires. “The regulations do not allow neutral fans or visitors,” Aparicio said in statements made on the program the super morningbroadcast by Radio Suquía de Córdoba.

The official also ruled out that the meeting, initially agreed for Sunday at 15:40, will be played at the Ciudad de La Plata stadium. “You cannot change the scenario, there is no possibility. Brown has the location and that’s where you have to play “he stressed. And he asked that the Belgrano fans not move to Adrogué to try to enter Lorenzo Arandilla.

“How can a bias travel where there will be no ticket sales for visitors?” she asked. He added: “I spoke to Brown and he is strictly forbidden from selling tickets. Only the Brown partners will enter. In addition, he recalled the incidents that occurred when the Belgrano fans moved to Mar del Plata: “With Alvarado they wanted to enter the field and there was repression, rubber bullets and they beat the police.”
