And it’s not just to help fans get through a more enjoyable quarantine. Rather, the real goal of this event is to raise funds to donate to the Argentine Red Cross. Everything to continue fighting the Coronavirus within the country.
The ChamPlay: FIFA vs. Coronavirus

And this is not the best part. The participants of the ChamPlay will be nothing more and nothing less than great celebrities of Latin American soccer. These include Sergio Kun Agüero, James Rodríguez and Facu Campazzo among others.
Everyone will be playing from home, broadcasting live and inviting the public to collaborate with donations so that, in this match against the Coronavirus, humanity ends up winning “by a landslide.”
