The Mouth vs Gymnastics by date 23 of the 2022 Professional League it was postponed again. Through a statement, the organization of the contest announced that it accepted a request from the blue and gold box to move the date of the match. Now it will be fired on Thursday at 5:00 p.m. in Argentina (3:00 p.m. in Peru).

“At the initiative of Club Atlético Boca Juniors, and after Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata and the Security agencies of the Province of Buenos Aires accepted the proposal, the resumption of the match between GELP and Boca (corresponding to date 25 of the Binance Tournament 2022) was rescheduled for Thursday, October 20 at 3:00 p.m., at the Zerillo stadium”, pointed out the LFP.

The match was suspended a few days ago due to the violent police repression of Lobo fans, with a deceased supporter. The resumption of the duel was scheduled for this Wednesday, but was finally postponed for another day.

This is the detailed explanation about rescheduling: “The request of the Xeneize team was based on the experience lived in July 2021, when -in the midst of a pandemic- and just arrived in the country from a meeting in Brazil for the Copa Libertadores, he had to comply with the stipulated time of sanitary confinement for those times. Given this scenario, he asked the then League authorities to postpone their commitments for the second and third dates of the local tournament, against Banfied and San Lorenzo, respectively. The LPF denied this possibility, arguing that this requirement had not been approved for any group. Consequently, Boca had to face those commitments with reserve players, who already had very little rest time, since they had played their respective matches for that category.”, pointed out the LFP.

“Having identified with the claims of some GELP actors to play within 48 hours and understanding that the current one is a World Cup year and that the calendars are extremely tight, the Xeneize entity still considers that no one is harmed if the restart is postponed of the match against Gimnasia for the aforementioned date. The team from La Plata – which faced Argentinos Juniors on Monday – thanked the gesture and accepted the suggestion, although it was subordinated to the approval of APREVIDE, an entity that protects the security of sporting events in the province of Buenos Aires”, added the entity.
