I have 24 years of experience speaking football, here and in the United States. He graduated as a journalist at 20, made his radio debut at 22, then worked on two channels in Miami, returned to the country and moved on to DirecTV Sports, Telefe, TNT Sports, TyC Sports and, this holiday Monday, Hernán Feler doesn’t stop giving notes. Are you talking about the victories of England and Holland? No: let’s talk about Big Brother.
“This is crazy… crazy. Look, I had a thousand dreams to achieve, but it never occurred to me that they would hire me to tell, in a very particular way, a World Cup for the most watched program on television”, Feler confesses clarionprior to his debut before a closed audience. He will be the one to give voice -for himself- to Lionel Scaloni’s team against Saudi Arabia.
The 46-year-old journalist, who was initially supposed to go to Qatar but ultimately didn’t, rolls up his sleeves -and take care of your voice- for your new challenge: secluded in a Telefe studio, in front of a camera, a monitor with the international signal and two monitors that will return the faces and reactions of the 13 members of the houseyou have to tell them about the game without giving any more information about the famous “out”.
We don’t talk about this
Among the other rules that Feler must respect in this strange way of reporting, he will not be able to give “any information extraneous to the plays. Furthermore, I won’t even interact with them. I just have to stick to the story and be very careful. No context from abroad. The first half ends, flat to black. Finish the second, plate on black. Nothing to talk to them about,” she advances.
Shortly before this note, made while the United States were playing Wales in Group B, Feler had a meeting with the production of the reality show in which it was decided that, in order to report on the national team match, he will be accompanied by Martín Reich, who will take care of the comments of comedies.
What It has not yet been decided whether only the match or the anthems will be broadcast at home. In production they fear that something that can be seen, outside the game, I can provide you with information.
With Lucila “La Tora” recently eliminated -she started on Sunday at midnight, after a close final with Juliana-, 13 participants remain in the game. They will be sitting in the mega armchair in the living room from where they usually talk to the driver, Santiago del Moro. They will be positioned in front of the big screen to see the images of the international broadcast, with the stories of Feler, who will have an atypical Tuesday.
You won’t be alone this morning

“i am very anxious. It’s strange, because I have a lot of experience in stories, but this is different. I feel a lot of responsibility, but I’m also focused on what needs to be done and what I can’t do. I have to be very strict with this,” admits who told the matches of the Argentina national team in the 2006, 2010, 2014 and 2018 qualifiers.
