Rosario Central was crowned league champion 2025 after the AFA and Liga Profesional asked Estudiantes to perform the pass to the Canalla in the corresponding match to the quarterfinals of the Clausura Tournament. Estudiantes' reaction was not long in coming. The club, led by Juan Sebastián Verón, publicly expressed its disagreement with the designation of Central as champion, arguing that there was no formal vote to recognize that title. In their social media, the team expressed: "There was no vote regarding the recognition of the title of League Champion 2025". This stance directly contradicted the official version of the LPF, which had stated hours earlier that the decision to incorporate the new title and recognize Rosario Central as annual champion had been "unanimously approved". Finally, despite the conflict, Estudiantes performed the pass, but with a gesture that transcended borders: their players turned their backs on the Canalla players. It was a silent but forceful protest, driven by Verón himself. The journalist Federico Bueno, present in the broadcast, explained that Estudiantes "freed their players" institutionally, but Verón met with the team's leaders and "suggested a pass with their backs and crossed arms". The LPF had informed that the disposition would be fulfilled, but never detailed how. From the stands, the Rosario Central fanbase responded with a chant directed at the Estudiantes president: "The one who doesn't jump is an Englishman". The Canalla's consecration is based on its first position in the annual table, which allowed it to add another star to its history. The AFA determined that the recognition of the team with the most points of the year will be official from now on for all champions of the annual table. The key detail: the rule was applied with the tournament already in progress and without being previously specified in the regulations. The celebration was emotional, especially for figures like Ángel Di María, who celebrated in his social media: "Glory has no price. League champion 2025. Vamos Central"
