Scaloni and Gareca suspended for late field exits
CONMEBOL suspended Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni and Chile coach Ricardo Gareca for one match each due to their teams’ late arrivals on the field during Copa America. Both national federations were fined $15,000. The suspensions stem from Argentina’s late second-half start against Canada and Chile’s delayed halftime substitution against Argentina. The coaches will miss their final group stage matches on Saturday, with Argentina already qualified for the quarter-finals. Reuters
