Discussion on Football Match Controversies
When we went to play the final in '90,
in '90, Grondona comes and tells me,
'This is as far as we go.'
I remember I had a muscle tear and with the toenail that that idiot doctor
Madero had it pulled out, had it pulled out, instead of leaving it
so the boot and sock would cover it, he had it pulled out.
Diego, do you mean that when he told you 'this is as far as we go', you mean that
he sold you out?
That we were sold out.
So I got fired up and I tell him, 'Listen to me, Julio,'
I tell him, 'Sold out, my ass! Tomorrow on this pitch,
I'm going to tackle with my head,
even if I have a tear,
even if my shoulder hurts.
You are not going to tell me what I have to do on the pitch.' He says,
'I know what you're like.' 'Yes, oh yes, you know what I'm like.' And he
Are you coming to say what you told me in the shower?
No, this is something very serious. Out of
all the complaints I'm going to make to FIFA, I'm going to
make this one. I'm going to make this one. And Alejandro,
we've talked many times, many times, about all
the fixed matches that the big boss wanted,
Grondona. And he would send the referee, or if not, he'd send the two linesmen.
But that was commonplace. After all,
he would go to his ranch on Friday
and whatever happened on Saturday or Sunday, he didn't care at all.
But forget about it, forget about it.
But I'd put both hands in the fire, and I swear to you by my little daughter,
of whom I have three.
