The Argentine prosecutor's office has opened an investigation into a Buenos Aires police officer following violent incidents during the Copa Sudamericana match between Independiente and Universidad de Chile (La U). Independiente's president and local authorities denied responsibility for the disturbances, accusing La U of orchestrating a premeditated plan of violence. However, multiple reports and videos documented aggressive behavior by Independiente fans, contradicting these claims. CONMEBOL has summoned both clubs for a hearing, anticipating a direct confrontation over the case. The match was canceled due to the severity of the incidents, which included a Universidad de Chile fan being pushed and falling from a height; he has since been discharged from the hospital and is set to return to Chile. Meanwhile, families of Independiente supporters residing in Chile have reported receiving threats and attacks, leading some to leave the country. The coach of Alianza Lima has called for a fair resolution and a place in the tournament's semifinals for La U. Additionally, Alianza Lima plans to submit a formal request to CONMEBOL regarding the ruling on the Independiente-La U case. Lucas Assadi, a player from La U, publicly stated that the team deserves to advance to the quarterfinals. In response to concerns about safety, Chilean official Cordero assured that Argentines can safely visit Chile despite the alleged threats.
