The Argentinian team beat Colombia 1-0
Before the match could even begin, there was absolute mayhem outside the venue, spilling into the Copa América Finals. The chaotic start forced a delay from 8 p.m. ET to 9:22 p.m. due to crowd control issues outside the stadium.
Hard Rock Stadium released a statement after the game, saying that the venue, which will be used for the 2026 World Cup, “takes pride in hosting world-class events year-round in a safe and successful manner.”
“We understand there are disappointed ticket holders who were not able to enter the stadium after the perimeter was closed,” the statement said, “and we will work in partnership with CONMEBOL to address those individual concerns. Ultimately, there is nothing more important than the health and safety of all guests and staff, and that will always remain our priority.
