The closest publicized event at the Rommel Fernández stadium is the concert scheduled for August 7 of Salsa singer Marc Anthony, although Chaluja did not mention it. "This (the stage) affects the opening of the Concacaf Champions League tomorrow (Tuesday), this has put us in a position where the stadium can be vetoed for lack of compliance," Chaluja said while featured on the local Channel 13 newscast. The leader added that in addition to the stadium veto, the Fepafut can be fined with $ 25,000, for this inconvenience. Tomorrow Árabe Unido of Panama and Arnett Gardens F.C. of Jamaica face each other for the opening of the Champions tournament of Concacaf. "Since last night we have been in contact with Concacaf and the personnel who carried out the inspection of the Rommel Fernández Stadium and they have found a platform for a private event," said the Panamanian soccer official without specifying which activity it is. "We have until 11 o'clock in the morning (16:00 GMT) today to have a response from Pandeportes (Panamanian Institute of state Sports), more than the fine, it is the image we give at the international level," he said. "Today when the international television stations were preparing to install their equipment they found this." An eventual veto of the Rommel Fernández stadium may also affect the friendly match between Panama and Venezuela in September, the federation said. http://www.panamatoday.com/sports/event-stage-exposes-veto-rommel-fernandez-stadium-panama-7445 Quote
