In the negotiations held between the FIFA and Conmebol on punishment would weigh on Boca Juniors after riots at La Bombonera in the derby against River Plate in the Copa Libertadores, the South American agency preferred to lose the fifth place before dispense the business of television and sponsors that would secure more money to the Conmebol with the presence of Boca in continental competition . In this way, FIFA would reach old desire to terminate South America the possibility that one of their picks access a World Cup for the playoffs. What is still unclear is whether the average square would go to the CONCACAF or Asia. While still the decision is not official, FIFA will set the penalty to Conmebol this May 29 during the LXV Congress FIFA, which also will elect the new president of the highest body of world football.

This makes no sense since Argentinean teams did something bad, Uruguay/Ecuador/Pargaguay etc has to suffer? The logical thing would be to ban Argentina from the World Cup of course.

Yeah, I agree. I think Argentina should suffer the consequences and get banned for the next world cup. It would be the right thing to do in such a chaotic situation
