The AFA has placed the Copa Argentina fixture between Boca Juniors and Racing on its schedule for Sunday, September 27. The match remains contingent on the outcome of a Disciplinary Tribunal ruling regarding a formal complaint filed by Vélez. Vélez alleges that Boca Juniors violated roster regulations by including six foreign players on the team sheet for a previous match, citing the presence of Ángel Romero on the bench. The club argues that the competition rules limit teams to five foreign players, consistent with Liga Profesional standards. Vélez is seeking a sanction that would award them a 3-0 victory based on articles 18.2 and 26.1 of the Disciplinary Code. Details regarding the venue and the specific kickoff time for the scheduled match are not yet confirmed.
