The statements of Federico ChiappettaUndersecretary of Sports of Mendoza, aroused the controversy: “It is a possibility, but not because of Mendoza, but because all the provinces are given the name of the province. They did not prohibit the name of Malvinas Argentinas, we had a quick chat; They are called Mendoza stadium, San Juan stadium, Santiago del Estero stadium, La Plata stadium and so on”.
From these words, many deduced that the Argentine authorities had been asked to change the name of the stadium for “political reasons,” and this caused a stir in the networks.
The Sub 20 World Cup started with controversy before it started and many questioned the Government for having accepted this suggestion.
That is why Matías Lammens had to go out to close the controversy, clarifying on the one hand that the request never existed, and on the other, that the request had never been accepted.
