A new sad episode is added to the history of Argentine football with the suspension of the classic between Tigre and Chacarita when a bottle thrown from the Matador stalls hit Funebrero player Fernando Brandán squarely in the head. And amid the scandal, the person responsible for increasing the pressure of the match was Néstor Pipo Gorosito, coach of the Matador, ignoring the attack and accusing the footballer of “testing the bottle”. The impact of his statement did not go unheard by anyone, least of all by the Chaca board of directors.
The statements of the Tigre coach sparked controversy, accusing the player of intentionally “testing the bottle” to take advantage.
This Thursday at noon, the Chacarita player spoke for the first time after the scandalous final. “Leave the hospital, have an eye exam. My head hurts a lot, I had a bad night, very agitated. I just received the information that I have inflammation in my pupils, I have to be under ophthalmological control for several days” , he told ESPN.
“I am very sad for everything that is said about me, I have immense values towards the sport that I love so much and for this thing that is said it hurts my soul. I am very sad…”, he said .
“I hope this doesn’t happen again, I hope I can get on the pitch soon to finish that match, even if today is the last thing that should matter.”
