The Copa America made another pre-game error Monday as a song by rapper Pitbull was played during Chile’s national anthem.
Just a day after the Chile anthem was played wrongly instead of Uruguay’s, Pitbull’s single “Mr. Worldwide” interjected before the conclusion of the anthem before a match against Argentina at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif.
As Juan Antonio Pizzi’s men were lining up ahead of their blockbuster Copa final rematch, the anthem started before Pitbull was played, leading to all sound being cut. The players and fans picked up the slack and sung the rest of the anthem anyway.
A day earlier, Copa officials had apologized for what they described as “human error” prior to Uruguay’s meeting with Mexico.
