Brazil surpassed to Argentina to put in the final of the Glass America 2019, and the defeat has had consequences in the 'albiceleste'. The group directed by Lionel Scaloni treated to take out positive conclusions of a clash in which it gave the face in front of one of the big favourites to the title, although it has expressed formally his unrest by several subjects in which it feels prejudiced.

The Association of the Argentinian Football (AFA) presented a formal complaint to the CONMEBOL by the arbitration of the meeting, that did to burst to Leo Messi and other cracks after the pitido final and that received even critical of several referents of the 'canarinha', like a Dani Alves that recognised that the wails of his ex mate and fellow were justified because the referees were "very nervous".

In a text of six pages that published in his web page and that it was remitted to the organism rector, the AFA made a conclusive assessment: "Said reflection finds sustento in all the irregularities warned before and during the mentioned party, where has remained evidenciado that the national selection was clearly prejudiced by the referee's body headed by referee Roddy Zambrano during everything develop him of the party".

Special importance had the second of these actions, that arrived before the second so much Brazilian.

The performance of Zambrano is one of the key points of the note, since incide in the "imprudencia" committed when appointing to a professional with negative antecedents in appointments of high level. "It does not possess the technical qualities to direct a party of similar transcendence. There were referee's errors in the party that do not find explanation any", underlines .
