Pre-Game Chaos:
The interesting final of Copa America was played last night between Argentina and Colombia. But the strange or special thing about this final was that some kind of involvement took place here. The reason for this is that many such people who did not even have tickets for the final, had formed a rush at the gates of the stadium and were trying to enter inside in groups. In this desire, they broke the gates and started entering inside. And many people who had tickets entered the stadium to watch the final. The administration tried a lot but could not stop them. Because of this, there was a lot of chaos in the stadium, and the people who had spent their money to buy the tickets had to face problems. Dr Manuel Fonseca is also one among these spectators, who had bought tickets for Copa America final worth 3690$ but his pregnant wife was also with him, there was chaos in the huge stadium, due to this he had to stand with his pregnant wife He did not find it appropriate to go inside and despite spending the money he was deprived of seeing the final.
