On the eve of the classic of Avellaneda, where Independent AND racing faces will show Brian Sarmientostreamer “They are airplanes”recounted his experience in the classic when he wore the shirt of Academy and revealed the details of the controversial episode that occurred with the Colombian forward Teofilo Gutiérrez when he pulled out a gun in the locker room.
That April 14, 2012, the Colombian played his last game racing. Teo was the protagonist of several events on that occasion. Firstly, he scored a goal and gave Racing the lead, but he was also sent off and the team led by Alfio Coco Basile ended up losing 4-1.
Sarmiento, already far from professional football practice, was consulted by Fantasy Augustine, conductor of the program, if he had participated in any classic of Avellaneda. “Yes, play the one with Teo’s prickly pear,” replied the former Newell’s player.
With 20 minutes to go the former River player was sent off and, added to the sending off of Bruno Zuculini, he left his team with two players down. Sebastián Saja was, at that time, a point of reference and captain of the Academy. “The game ends and El Chino (Saja) was saying ‘enter, enter and don’t let any leader enter'”denoting his anger.
And then he began to explain what the scenario was like before that duel: “We went to the fourth date and we lost the first three. Coco came and said if we missed the classic he would leave,” she explained.
The unexpected reaction of Lucas Aveldaño
In turn, he revealed, for the first time, a detail that was unknown. It turns out that Lucas Aveldaño, a defender who is currently 37 and works in the Spanish promotion, had a rash reaction. “Aveldaño, who is ill, would kill you and I see that he sits down, takes off his boots and stands in front of him. “He Shoots the guacho because if I don’t I’ll break everything,” he told him.
This episode has been talked about for years. Either through the mouth of Teófilo Gutiérrez, Coco Basile or a protagonist who revealed some information, but, without a doubt, Brian Sarmiento’s story did not skimp on details.
