#Duel #Huachipato #Gremio #Copa #Libertadores #suspended #Publimetro #Chile
A real bucket of cold water for football fans and especially for fans of Huachipato y Guild. This, because the Conmebol decided to suspend the duel on the fourth date of the Libertadores Cupwhich was scheduled for next May 8 at 6:00 p.m. in Chile.
The reason is because of the heavy rains that have affected the city of Porto Alegre, preventing the players of the Brazilian team from traveling to our country, since the Salgado Filho international airport in Porto Alegre is completely flooded and its operations are suspended until new notification.
So far, the storm has caused the death of 55 people and affected more than 350 residents, who are without electricity due to flooding in the State of Rio Grande do Sul.
At the moment, Conmebol has not yet announced when the match will take place, also reporting the suspension of the match between Real Tomayapo (BOL) and Internacional (BRA) for CONMEBOL Sudamericana 2024.
