Not at all. Brazil didn't play any prem players. Argentina did.
For all Brazil officials could have known was the 4 players were with the squad but would isolate and take no part in the game.
Brazil didn't play any prem players only because we didn't release them..
They are cunts. No one should be releasing any players from now on

Guinea’s borders were closed but the Moroccan squad was given permission to leave, according to local news reports.
“We’re at the hotel, gunshots can be heard nearby,” Morocco coach Vahid Halilhodzic told French newspaper L’Equipe earlier in the day when the team was stranded while an aircraft waited at the airport.
Match officials were also eventually allowed to leave Guinea, the reports said.
It was not immediately clear when Guinea’s Europe-based players including Liverpool’s Naby Keita and Sochaux’s Florentin Pogba, the brother of Manchester United’s Paul Pogba, would be able to return to their clubs. CAF gave no new date for the game to be played.

We’re a twisted bunch. And he’s shit.
OK, here's the story.
Apparently the health officials DID warn Argentina and also told the police to not let them into the country.
They even tried reaching the Argentinian team in the stadium before the game, but they locked their dressing room and ignored any calls.
The AFA (Argentinian FA), probably just wanted to get the game started, so that it couldn't be stopped and that they could negotiate something afterwards.
You know the classic "we're here, we mind as well play, come on..." type deal.
The Brazilian health officials weren't having it.

And we are almost as sick as much as Naby is.
Great result for Canada last night against the Americans, with a 1-1 draw. After drawing against Honduras, we definitely needed at least a point here. Feisty, well-contested match that lacked a bit of quality from both teams.
Alphonso Davies does my head in though. Lauded as one of the best left backs in football, he holds the ball too long and lacks end product for me. That said, it was a nice run and assist from him that created Canada's goal.

Apparently they visited the hotel and told the players not to travel to the stadium too.
In my view this is 100% on Argentina and not Brazil. The rules were clear. Should be a 3-0 walk over to Brazil
Gotta love internationals eh?
So F maddening
Surely the Brazilian FA should have sorted this out with their counterparts? The fact that you have double standards for your own players is enough reason to punish Brazil imo.
They should be banned from calling up Alisson and Fab for 2 years
They couldn't just do that, they' have to alert the whole public/nation in a live briefing.
He's not in it, Froggy. These are soldiers. What's the joke?So the BBC released this pic with the story ... but I can't find Naby. Anyone help me out?
