What an unholy mess. I'm posting the BBC news link though I have read it in the DT.....looks like Brazil may be awarded the match as though the Argies got their Premier League players back, Liverpool, Chelsea, Man U, Everton and Leeds along with Man City didn't allow their Brazilians to leave - Liverpool alone had 3 in Alisson (didn't even know he was Brazilian!), Fabinho and Firmino.

An own goal for their S.American Association tied to Fifa......?

I wonder if the 4 Premiership players who will be returning on Thursday will quarantine for 10 full days in a managed quarantine hotel?

Brazil has an even worse record on Covid than the UK. Over 20 million cases and 4 times our death toll. It would be shocking if the players were in a stadium next weekend with 40,000 spectators.

they should be - then the audacitiy is that they consider we are a danger with our levels! (Down here it may be as we in Cornwall are tracking over 800/100k).
