The Argentine football association will put an end to the 2019-20 season which has been interrupted since mid-March due to the coronavirus pandemic, its president Claudio Tapia said on Monday.

The Argentine FA also said there will be no relegation this season or next due to the disruption caused by the health crisis.

Boca Juniors won the league championship with a 1-0 victory over Gimnasia on the final day at the start of March.
