The complete statement
By virtue of the events that took place last Saturday 11/05/2022 in our stadium, while the match between our Atlético Concaran vs. EFI Jrs (SL), valid for the 4th date of the 2022 Regional Amateur Tournament, we want to express our accompaniment to the player Daniel Garro and his family, who suffered an accident after turning the second goal of the match.
Due to the large number of false and malicious comments from an EFI Club leader, and many of its actors, who seek to divert their responsibility and that of their institution, both in radio, television and digital media , we see ourselves in the obligation to clarify the situation, in order to publicize the succession of events.
After 5 minutes of the second half, the player Garro scores a goal, and during the party accidentally bumps into a player from our institute, causing a fall that leads to the next fainting, all this, noticed by the referee, who understands which was a simple fortuitous action.
Immediately, a professional registered in nursing made available by our club, carries out first aid and makes the call to the emergency room, which arrives in a period of 6 minutes for the subsequent transfer, leaving our management from that moment. in permanent contact with the management of the visiting team, to collaborate in everything that is within our reach to know the evolution of the player Garro, according to the messages exchanged between the two presidents and that we make available.
It should be clarified that the EFI Jrs. He had no medical personnel on his technical staff.
As regards the presence in the field of a health professional, on several occasions, we have agreed to play with professional nurses, given the impossibility of finding doctors in these small centers.
In the event that the EFI Jrs. they had not accepted to play under these conditions, they had the right not to play the game and therefore request the assignment of points before the competent body.
We must say that Efi Jrs. accepted in advance the pre-established conditions.
As for the state of our stadium, it has the characteristics of a stadium in our region, and like most fields in a regional tournament, without worrying about Garro’s injury, but taking him in our place as a contemptuous mockery of the our club and if the president of EFI Jr. saw any reason not to play, he also had the full right not to play, but he never raised such a situation and the game was played normally.
Similarly, we ask the EFI Jr Club to present the relevant insurance before the competent authorities, in order to make a transfer to our club and to be able to report what happened with competence.
For our part, we will take care of making the corresponding legal presentations in the face of these accusations which include our club and its players, who are accused of a serious crime such as “attempted murder”.
It is worth remembering that the match between the two institutions ended in the corresponding times, moreover there is no arbitration report on the aggression we are talking about, believing the different pronouncements of its president to be false since he spoke at first of a blow to the mouth and then changes these sayings for a punch or an elbow to the back of the head without being clear about this, a situation that didn’t happen.
By virtue of your statements about the insecurity experienced by your players, we also clarify that there are no reports from the Provincial Police responsible for the safety of the event that speak of acts of violence on our field on the day of the game in question. .
We reject any act of violence, but not only physical violence, but also verbal violence and violence that occurs on social networks.
We must be responsible for our actions and our words.
Being a club from the inside does not give rise to treating our players as “Chuncanos”, “horses”, “orphans”, “Indians”. We respect everyone in the same way, 20 years of professionalism do not in any case give rise to feeling above the young amateurs.
We can only continue to raise our prayers for the effective healing of a great player, but of a better person like Daniel Garro, whose peace of mind remains in the best hands, those of our doctors at Ramón Carrillo hospital.
Sincerely, Athletic Concarán Board of Directors
