AFA Confirms Ban: Club Atlético Aldosivi Faces Racing Without García Basso
The AFA Disciplinary Tribunal has issued its ruling. Club Atlético Aldosivi prepares for its next challenge against Racing Club, who will miss Agustín Eugenio García Basso for two matches. We analyze the impact.
Club Atlético Aldosivi is gearing up for the final stretch of the semester in Argentine football, with aspirations to advance in the Liga Profesional. However, the Disciplinary Tribunal of the Argentine Football Association (AFA) has issued its rulings, directly impacting upcoming fixtures. In the match played on April 19, 2026, against Racing Club, an expulsion occurred that will have consequences for the 'Shark's' opponent.
According to File 98827, player Agustín Eugenio García Basso of Racing Club has been suspended for two matches. This sanction is applied in accordance with Article 13 1. e) of the AFA Disciplinary Code, following his expulsion in the Primera División match where Racing faced Aldosivi. García Basso's absence will be a factor for the Avellaneda team in their upcoming commitments.
This announcement from the Disciplinary Tribunal not only affects Racing Club but also includes other significant suspensions in the Primera División. Key players from teams like Argentinos Juniors and Belgrano de Córdoba will also miss crucial matches due to expulsions in previous rounds, adding an element of uncertainty to the championship's conclusion.
Hernán Darío López Muñoz of Argentinos Juniors was suspended for two matches after the game against Independiente Rivadavia on April 11, 2026 (File 98797). Similarly, Sandro Leonardo Morales of Belgrano de Córdoba received a two-match suspension for his expulsion in the match against Barracas Central on April 20, 2026 (File 98826).
These disciplinary decisions come at a critical moment in the semester, where every point and every available player are vital for the clubs' aspirations. The Argentine Liga Profesional is heading towards its Round of 16, and suspensions could significantly alter the performance of several teams in the final rounds of the competition.
