Argentina offer to host Copa America

BUENOS AIRES, May 27: Argentina offered Wednesday to stage the entire Copa America after Colombia was dropped as a tournament co-host last week. Argentinian President Alberto Fernández introduced “a strict protocol so Copa America is held in this country” to Alejandro Domínguez, the head of South American soccer’s governing body CONMEBOL, both parties said in a statement. The tournament is set to kick off June 13. Last week, CONMEBOL rejected a request from the Colombian government to again postpone Copa America to the end of the year. The request came at a time protests against President Iván Duque are rocking the country. (AP)
