The game had to be suspended when 42 minutes of the first half were played due to the appearance of a
drone
flying over the stadium.
The match started at 12, from
Argentina
, with ESPN transmission and for a long time there was tension because there was no official information about the reasons for the suspension.
When the referee detected the object flying over the field, he alerted the players, who withdrew from the field of play hurrying towards the changing rooms.
