15 años de InfoMerlo: cuando Villa de Merlo fue capital sudamericana del Fútbol Playa
Hay acontecimientos que quedan guardados en la memoria de una comunidad. Momentos en los que un lugar se transforma en escenario de grandes historias y recibe la mirada de todo un continente.
En febrero de 2013, Villa de Merlo vivió uno de esos momentos.
Nuestra ciudad fue sede del torneo clasificatorio sudamericano para la Copa Mundial de Fútbol Playa y recibió a algunas de las principales selecciones del continente. Durante aquellos días, el Parque Recreativo de Merlo se convirtió en el escenario de una verdadera fiesta deportiva.
Infomerlo estuvo allí para contar cada una de aquellas jornadas.
El domingo 17 de febrero de 2013 quedó marcado como uno de los momentos más importantes del torneo. Ante una multitud que colmó las tribunas, la Selección Argentina de Fútbol Playa derrotó a Paraguay por 6 a 2 y se consagró campeona sudamericana.
La fiesta fue completa.
Argentina, Paraguay y Brasil lograron la clasificación al Mundial de Fútbol Playa que se disputaría meses después en Tahití. Pero para Villa de Merlo, aquel campeonato significó mucho más que una competencia deportiva.
Fue la oportunidad de recibir un evento internacional, de ver a nuestra ciudad convertida en escenario del deporte sudamericano y de compartir con miles de personas una jornada que quedó en la memoria de quienes estuvieron presentes.
La Selección Argentina celebró el título sobre la arena y el público acompañó cada momento de una final inolvidable.
Hoy, en el marco de los 15 años de Infomerlo, volvemos a nuestro archivo para recuperar aquella historia.
Porque durante estos años fuimos testigos de grandes acontecimientos, protagonistas y momentos que marcaron a Villa de Merlo y a toda la región.
Esta es una de esas historias.
Una tarde de verano de 2013. Una multitud en las tribunas. La Selección Argentina levantando un título sudamericano.
Y Villa de Merlo, una vez más, siendo parte de una gran historia.
15 años de Infomerlo. 15 años contando las historias de nuestra gente, nuestra ciudad y nuestra región.
