Where it all began, it must all return. The main leaders of Uruguay, Argentina, Paraguay, Chile and the South American Football Confederation will meet on Tuesday at the Centenario Stadium in Montevideo, a World Football Historical Monument and the main venue for the first World Cup in 1930, to officially launch the candidacy . of four countries for the 2030 World Cup.
In Montevideo, the president of Conmebol, Alejandro Dominguez, was present, along with the presidents of the Uruguayan Federations, Ignacio Alonso; from Argentina, Claudio Tapia; from Chile, Arturo Salah; and from Paraguay, Robert Harrison.
The four Secretaries or Ministers of Sport of their respective countries will also attend. The host, Sebastián Bauzá, from Uruguay, who was also president of the Uruguayan Federation between 2009 and 2014. In addition, Matias Lammens, from Argentina; Diego Galeano Harrison, from Paraguay and Alexandra Benado Bergara, from Chile.
World Centenary 2030
The main objective of Tuesday’s meeting at the Centenario Stadium was to sign a consortium between the four countries, which will be called “TOGETHER 2030”
The goal is to create a State Policy in four countries, with an organization that transcends the political change of any of the four countries, in a region where political changes are the order of the day, in introduction to the biggest of the four, Argentina .
The JUNTOS 2030 corporation should work to present the joint candidacy in the first half of 2023 and then continue towards 2024, when FIFA will determine the venue for 2030.
The main message is to use history as a catapult to launch into the future. “For us, it should be called the 2030 Centennial World Cup,” said Uruguayan Sports Secretary Sebastián Bauzá. “What we need to strengthen is the idea of the Centennial World Cup. This is where the celebration of 100 years of the first World Cup will be held. Back to the legend, back to the roots,” he added.
Main company in 2026
Another major situation that will take place on Tuesday is the formal contact with the company that has been key to the election of the candidacy of the United States, Mexico and Canada for 2026.
Contact with this company was made a few months ago, on the occasion of other meetings of Secretaries and Ministers of Sports, but now is the time to define everything that must be done to present the joint candidacy and win their election.
Currently, the 2030 World Cup has two possible destinations. These four countries in South America, or the Iberian candidacy Spain-Portugal.
In this southern corner of the world, the dream is to return to the source. Today, July 30, which marks the 92nd anniversary of the first World Cup final (Uruguay 4- Argentina 2), is a good time to rejoice.
