Anyone who played soccer can understand that there are moments of anger and that - with the heartbeat at a thousand - someone
can loosen the chain or
go overboard. But what
Mauricio Cuero did
in Banfield's visit to the Argentine court has no explanation in the context in which the planet has lived for more than a year due to the Covid 19 pandemic.
The forward of the Drill "was removed" in an argument with Miguel Torrén and ended up spitting in his face
. All in front of the watchful eye of referee Fernando Espinoza, who immediately sent him off. Amazing...
Of course,
salivating an opponent's face is wrong at any time
.
It is a gesture not only violent but also unpleasant, although it would seem that in Argentina spitting has become natural both from outside the field and within the field of play.
But in a situation like the one that the country is going through, which this Friday confirmed a new record of deaths from coronavirus,
what the Colombian did
is even more
surprising and repudiable.
That aside from the performance of Torrén, who lay down on the grass as if he had received a pineapple more than the saliva of his rival.
In any case,
Espinoza acted correctly: he quickly called Cuero, gave him the signal that he was throwing him out for spitting at the Bicho defender and showed him the red card.
The footballers came arguing and "fucking"
before the ball was put into play again.
However, the matter did not seem to be so heated as for such a reaction from the
coffee
striker
, who in addition to becoming news due to the unpleasantness and irresponsibility of his action, complicated Banfield, who still managed to rescue a point on the end.
The Covid in Argentina
The country goes through its worst since the pandemic began with a very high number of cases yen two consecutive days, Thursday and Friday, there
were record died from the disease:
were 537 and 556 deaths respectively.
Based on the difficult situation that mainly affects the AMBA area, the health authorities and the Executive Branch analyze the decisions to be taken to avoid the collapse of the health system in the coming days.
