Claudio Tapia and Pablo Tovigino They built their own maze Today they don’t seem to have found a way out. A door to escape without injury.
They finish The worst institutional week in the AFC’s memory Having lost the meager legitimacy they had left behind, they were disowned by fans of all clubs and disobeyed by leaders (Veron) and footballers.
But the issue of Estudiantes is just the tip of the iceberg: the leadership of the Argentine Football Association has not obtained a minimum consensus between the parties for a long time, which They are just silent out of fear.
The final act of this embarrassment should require filing a complaint in court.
This Monday, well-founded suspicions emerged that the article “Salute to the Champion Clubs”, supposedly included in the decisions of last February 12, It was to be written on Sunday, November 23 at 7:21 p.m., With the end of the match between Central and Estudiantes.
The level of detail in writing the text with Specifications that appear to be modified from what happened in Rosariosomewhere between comic and dramatic.
A fabricated article to justify the punishment For those who dared to express their rebellion towards the AFC on the field. Nothing seems too much for these leaders.
One piece of information confirms the total absurdity: Talleres de Cordoba, Platense, Velez and Independiente Rivadavia won the championships this season and none of them were received in the aforementioned hall.
Such foolishness should ban them from the positions they hold. Even malicious decisions require a minimum of accuracy.
The alleged change in the date of the article was noted by journalist Federico Umana from Mendoza, a gesture that reveals widespread distrust of the Argentine Football Association. There are no political processes or major enemies in front of us. People are just tired of suspicious management. In return, Tapia retains internal sources of power: the referees, the disciplinary committee and the allied commanders.
The President of the Asian Football Confederation adds to this reality His dark relationships with Ariel Vallejo, owner of Sur Finanzas A sponsor of various clubs and the Asian Football Confederation were investigated for money laundering. The future of this judicial case may be the leader’s main concern.
But collective exhaustion leads us to propose basic alternatives and a shared interest, How can you avoid another tapia in the future? “I see many analyzes of the AFC and Chique Tapia debacle that ignore the fundamental structural problem: the system of electoral authorities,” wrote PRO Fernando Iglesias over the weekend.
The AFC President is elected by the 46 members of the Assembly consisting of 22 Primera Clubs, 6 Primera Nacional Clubs, and 5 Primera B Metropolitana Clubs. 3 of the first c; 2 for the Federal Championship. 5 by internal patrols; One women’s football delegate; 1 for futsal and beach soccer and 1 for former referees, former players and former coaches. This means, 2 more delegates from the Ascension From the first section. The network of favors received and votes with little representation but equal value (they all add up to 1) is what supports Tapia and his company.
Some leaders quietly suggest the need for this Adjust representation according to criteria such as club size and number of members. The present regime not only generated, but allowed to perpetuate, Grondona and Tapia. Something needs to be discussed. Argentine football urgently requires this.
