Argentine FA President Luis Segura has "dispelled fears that the national team might withdraw from the Copa América Centenario" in the U.S. after the institution came under judicial scrutiny over TV revenue, according to the BUENOS AIRES HERALD. On Monday, judge María Servini de Cubría ordered that a lawyer and an accountant be installed at AFA for three months to "look at alleged irregularities in its management of match broadcasting funds." The order, which included "suspending a proposed AFA presidential election on June 30, met with resistance from board members who threatened to withdraw Argentina from the Copa that kicks off on Friday." However, Segura "denied the team would be flown home." He said, "I'm not resigning and there is no possibility of the national team returning from the United States. There is no possibility the football will stop, nor that Boca Juniors won't play the Libertadores Cup." Segura, who "had no plans to notify FIFA officially about the situation," added, "I hope this (order) isn't the start of Government intervention (in the AFA). AFA is unhampered, and we don't want anyone kicking us out of FIFA" (BUENOS AIRES HERALD, 6/1).
