The easiest thing is to think of Jair Bolsonaro, although the president of Brazil, possibly,
was affected by more important tasks
when that man in jean, blue shirt and paper in the back pocket of his pants invaded the field after 4 minutes of play. However, since Bolsonaro said that the covid
was a strong flu
, he
raised doubts about all the health actions of his government
. The role of Arena Corinthians is the best example of a policy. Also
the closing act of a circus performance.
Where did the crack occur?
Argentina
swears and perjures
that it warned that the four questioned footballers had passed through the United Kingdom.
And that Conmebol allowed his performance according to the exception to footballers,
granted by the South American governments.
The National Health Surveillance Agency (Anvisa), chaired by the official Antonio Barra Torres, says that Argentina did not properly report the origin of Martínez, Romero, Lo Celso and Buendía.
And then he
sent the man in the blue jean and shirt to the stadium.
He put on the show.
With free worldwide television.
Emiliano Martínez against Neymar.
The classic lasted a sigh.

What did the Brazilian political and health authorities want to do?
In the first place, if the documentation was not in order,
how did they allow the "four policemen" to be accepted by Migrations and enter the country?
Then, why didn't they do the procedure at the hotel in the Guarulhos area, where the National Team had been staying since they arrived from Caracas?
Let's think an absurdity.
John Smith is a British citizen on vacation from Rio de Janeiro.
He did all the corresponding procedures, including the days of isolation in Brazil required by the regulations.
And when it is enabled it crosses to Copacabana.
He throws himself in a sunga on the sand and while he enjoys a queijo quente and a caipirinha, health officials appear and take him by the ears.
Something like that happened this Sunday.
There is no other way to define the comedy step as
a bummer
.

, Mafalda would say.
The consequences seem not to have been measured correctly but the roadmap is foreseeable: Conmebol-FIFA and at most TAS to define if the game is suspended permanently, if it is ever played, what happens to the points and several etceteras more that also reaches the other eight teams in the Playoffs.

Smells like vendetta:
Brazil could not have 9 players participating in English clubs because the Premier did not authorize them to travel.
The 4 from Argentina, in the same conditions,
stood and ignored the English league.
If mine don't play, neither do yours
, some official more papist than the Pope seems to have whispered.
And here we come.
Those who made the decision to interrupt the classic did not realize (or did not want to) that they
left Tite's own players exposed
.
They, without deserving it, were the face of the role of the officials of that man who believed that the covid was a strong flu.
Meu Deus
