News Summary:

A proposal by CONMEBOL to expand the 2030 FIFA World Cup to 66 teams to increase participation is gaining momentum within FIFA, as preparations for the 48-team 2026 tournament continue. This follows a May 29 development where Chilean club O’Higgins stated it would not move its Copa Sudamericana playoff match against Boca Juniors, after Boca’s elimination from the Copa Libertadores group stage. Previously, on May 28, Atos formalized its innovation partnership with CONMEBOL eLibertadores, focusing on developing a digital ecosystem with new websites and mobile applications to enhance fan engagement and unify digital experiences across regional competitions. In late April, CONMEBOL issued a pitch-size protocol to federations with clubs in its tournaments, requiring official confirmation and maintenance of pitch dimensions until the final stages, following Cerro Porteño’s narrowed pitch against Palmeiras. Earlier, on April 17, CONMEBOL released VAR audio of the exchange between VAR Juan Lara and referee Piero Maza concerning a penalty that factored into Palmeiras’ 2-1 CONMEBOL Libertadores victory against Sporting Cristal.
