The Apertura Tournament is beginning to be defined and the Argentine Football Association (AFA) confirmed this Monday the stage for the match that will dedicate the champion. The grand final will be played on Sunday, May 24 at 3:30pm at the Mario Alberto Kempes Stadium
.The decision was made hours after the round of 16 crosses were defined. In this way, the decisive match will be played in the city of Córdoba, leaving aside the Estadio Único Madre de Ciudades de Santiago del Estero, which had been the regular venue for the last definitions of Argentine football
.One of the factors that tipped the balance was the capacity of the Cordovan stadium, which can accommodate more than 57,000 spectators, in addition to its air and ground connectivity, considered key to facilitating the transfer of the fans of the finalist teams.
It should be remembered that Kempes was already the scene of a recent final: in March 2024 it hosted the Argentine Super Cup in which River beat Estudiantes de La Plata 2-1. Previously, I also used other definitions, such as those of the 2022 Copa Sudamericana, the 2022 Professional League Cup and the 2023 Primera B Nacional
.With the venue defined, the Apertura enters its hottest stretch, waiting to meet the remaining teams that will fight for the title in Córdoba.
