Football players from Brazil and Argentina will continue the match in Melbourne on June 11 as part of the World Cup qualifiers.
The match between "cariocas" and "gauchos" was interrupted on September 5 last year in Sao Paulo when the leaders of the health authorities stormed the field and demanded that the match be stopped, because the visiting players did not respect the covid protocol.
The suspension came hours after Brazilian health authorities ruled that Argentina's Premier League players must immediately be quarantined for breaching protocols. Giovanni lo Celso, Emiliano Buendia, Emiliano Martinez and Cristian Romero had to emphasize that they had been in England for less than 14 days before arriving in Brazil.
After that, Fifa punished these footballers with a two-match suspension each, and both football associations were fined.
In the meantime, both teams have qualified for the World Cup and won their rivals in the draw, but the game will still be played to the end.
The Argentines will play in Group C with Saudi Arabia, Mexico and Poland in Qatar.
Brazil is in Group G with the selections of Serbia, Cameroon and Costa Rica.
