Buenos Aires, January 8 (NA) – Special Bulletin No. 6812 from the Argentine Football Association (AFA), which details the classification system and dispute of the 2027 Argentine Cup, included an error that did not go unnoticed: in the section corresponding to Primera División B, it states that the champion of the 2025 tournament qualifies, when it should actually refer to the 2026 season. However, the data leaves no room for doubt: the champion of Primera División B 2025 was Midland, so, despite the administrative slip-up, the 'Funebrero' appears as the first team officially classified for the 2027 Argentine Cup, as reported by the Argentine News Agency (NA). The document literally states that one of the five spots in the category corresponds to the champion of the 2025 championship, a mention that breaks the logic of the rest of the regulation—based on results from the 2026-2027 season—but that, unintentionally, advances the name of the first classified. Beyond the curiosity, everything indicates that it is a formal error that will be corrected in future clarifications. Meanwhile, Midland can enjoy being the first on the list heading to the 2027 Argentine Cup, even if it is thanks to an official slip-up.
