Brazil vs Argentina: when will the postponed match be played
There is still no official date, as FIFA needs to analyze the calendar. Conmebol has spoken out about it. The Qualifiers is a FIFA organization, not Conmebol's. The FIFA Disciplinary Committee will make a decision (on the Brazil-Argentina match), we believe that matches should be decided on the field."
