AFA postpones Argentine lower‑division matches after national team’s World Cup final return

The Argentine Football Association (AFA) suspended the upcoming round of fixtures in the Primera Nacional, Primera B Metropolitana and Primera C. The decision follows a security operation linked to the return of the Argentina senior squad after the 2026 World Cup final. All affected matches will be rescheduled in the coming days.

Among the postponed games is San Martín de San Juan’s clash with Tristán Suárez, a key fixture for the club’s hopes of reaching the reduced promotion zone. San Martín currently sits with 26 points, outside the qualifying spots, and still has an unfinished match against Nueva Chicago. The AFA will announce new dates for each fixture, including the San Martín encounter.
