#Wittels- Posted June 25, 2022 Posted June 25, 2022 Brazil asked for the relief to not be able to host the party for the general elections to be held the next day, Sunday, October 2. The final of the Copa Sudamericana 2022 will be played on October 1 in Córdoba, Argentina The final of the 2022 South American Cup, scheduled for October 1, will be played at the Mario Alberto Kempes stadium in Córdoba (Argentina) to replace Brasilia, chosen in principle, Conmebol announced. The change of venue was requested by the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) considering that the general elections in that country will be held the following day, Sunday, October 2. The new venue was agreed upon by the members of the Conmebol Council given the impossibility of carrying out the program at the Mané Garrincha World Cup stadium in the Brazilian capital. Córdoba already hosted the definition of the 2020 South American Cup when the Defense and Justice champion of Argentina was consecrated. Both the tournament and the final will not be able to have an audience in the stadiums due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The South American Cup is a tournament "increasingly consolidated in the continent and with a growing global impact," Conmebol said in a statement. "The sustained increase in prizes for participating and winning clubs, the increasing scope of broadcasts and the high level of competition of the teams are factors that show the expansion of this continental tournament," said the entity. The contest will distribute 60 million dollars and the champion of the 2022 edition will pocket a prize of 5 million dollars, one million more than the purse that Athletico Paranaense won when they won the 2021 tournament. In the group stage, all participating teams received $900,000. (D) Link: https://www.eluniverso.com/deportes/futbol/conmebol-cambia-de-sede-para-la-final-de-copa-sudamericana-nota/
