I don't care how patriotic they are. Its a global pandemic. Make a **** sacrifice like everyone else. Their country is more important to them then our club. And rightly so. Playing against Brazil is more important than Chelsea or Everton. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted September 5, 2021 Moderator Share Posted September 5, 2021 I don't like that the Brazilian authorities elected to let the game start before they took action - it suggests that they want to make a show of this - and that could be bad for the Emi's. Hopefully they get out of Brazil tonight and aren't subject to any further action. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MessiWillSignForVilla Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 (edited) 8 minutes ago, Zatman said: Scaloni is blaming Brazil who said they only found out today about this, they trained at the stadium last night See below translation from Reddit of the Health Authorities statement. Quote Due to information that four Argentine players entered Brazil in breach of the country's sanitary rules, by allegedly declaring false information in an official form of the Brazilian sanitary authority, Anvisa met with representatives of the Ministry of Health and the Coordination of Control of Diseases of the São Paulo State Department of Health this Saturday (4/9). After a meeting with the health authorities, it was confirmed, after consulting the passports of the four players involved, that the athletes failed to comply. rule for the entry of travelers on Brazilian soil, provided for in Interministerial Ordinance No. 655, of 2021, which provides that foreign travelers who have passed, in the last 14 days, through the United Kingdom, South Africa, Northern Ireland and India, are prohibited to enter Brazil. The players in question declared that they have not passed through any of the 4 countries with restrictions in the last 14 days. The travelers arrived in Brazil by flight from Caracas/Venezuela to Guarulhos. However, unofficial news reached Anvisa reporting alleged false statements made by such travelers. In view of the news, Anvisa immediately notified the Center for Strategic Information on National Health Surveillance (CIEVS/MS), which coordinates the CIEVS network, responsible for epidemiological investigation with the state of São Paulo and the municipality of Guarulhos, so that the if investigated and tracked. Upon confirmation that the information provided by travelers was false, Anvisa clarifies that it has already communicated the fact to the Federal Police, so that measures within the scope of the police authority can be taken immediately. There is a notorious non-compliance with the Interministerial Ordinance No. 655/2021 and the Brazilian immigration control rules. Anvisa considers the situation a serious health risk, and therefore advised the local health authorities to determine the immediate quarantine of players, who are prevented from participating in any activity and must be prevented from remaining in Brazilian territory, pursuant to art. 11, of Federal Law No. 6437/77. Apparently it was that that they only had it (lying on their declaration forms) confirmed today/last night, and ordered the players to stay in the hotel as quarantine. Hence why they only acted during the game, as it was only after the players left for the stadium that they were made aware they were also breaking quarantine. That's their story anyway.

Still some BS. Could've stopped them as they entered the stadium, or even during warm-ups. Not several minutes into the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
