The Copa Sudamericana final is generating considerable excitement as the sporting event will bring together two major teams from neighboring countries, attracting thousands of tourists from Argentina and Brazil, while providing a substantial economic boost. How much will this event inject into the local economy? We give you all the details in this article.
The Copa Sudamericana final, scheduled for this Saturday 23 at the Pablo Rojas “La Nueva Olla” stadium in Asunción, is expected to inject around 50 million US dollars into the Paraguayan economy.
