Santiago Maratea's collection to try to help Independiente pay off its debts is all the rage.
In 24 hours, a little more than 470 million
pesos
have already been raised .
The fans are contributing and some have even done crazy things.
However, people who are sympathetic to the
Red
have also made their contribution.
Some as a joke and others to really help.
The situation that drew attention and surprised more than one is that of
José Chatruc
.
El Pepe, former player and confessed fan of Racing, contributed to help his lifelong rival.
In fact, he made it public on his social networks.
“I congratulate my friend @marconijuan and of course @santumaratea1 for this initiative to raise funds for @Independiente. Of course I already collaborated and I hope you can achieve your goals. Greetings!"
he expressed via Twitter.
And of course, it generated reactions of all kinds.
Racing fans who couldn't believe he was helping Independiente, Red fans who appreciated his attitude.
The situation reached such a point that Chatruc had to make a video to clarify the reason for his actions.
“I simply want to send this message to the fans of Argentine soccer in general. Help with the Independiente collection because Juan Marconi is a friend of mine and because he is the neighbor. Without Independiente there is no Clásico, without Independiente there is no emotion for Racing either. Of course he is a rival, but my children are from Racing”
, began by expressing the current TNT Sports panelist.
"There I greet all those who say don't come to the field anymore, I'm not going to let you in, you can't step on it, you'll see.
My children are members, I pay the quota, I have it up to date, the debit.
And I don't want them to hate anyone, I want them to be happy, that they do have rivalry, but without so much madness.
That is why we have to rethink a lot of things as a society.
To those who do love me from Racing, who are the majority, I hope, I send you a big kiss, very grateful for all the expressions of affection and I am always here to collaborate.
I'm not looking for anything, or profit with the club, or anything.
Hold on Racing!", concluded the also former player of San Lorenzo and Banfield.
In this way, Chatruc came out to lower the fumes of the controversy.
He made an important reflection on how the passion for these is lived and made it clear that collaborating on this occasion with Independiente does not make him less of a fan of the Academy.
The charge of Chanchi Estévez
Maximiliano Estévez also contributed money, that is a reality, but it was not with the motivation of helping, but in order to be able to make fun of Independiente.
El Chanchi, who is a close friend of Chatruc, transferred 21 pesos and put years in the reason for the transfer.
In this way, with the sum of money and the reference he made reference to the last time that Independiente was champion of a tournament at the local level, there in the year 2002. The truth is that this attitude, taken for grace, is only an unhappy act that will surely be attributed the label of folklore.
However, Chatruc did not like his friend Estévez's "joke" at all.
"Maxi, you run out of dessert because of hdp! I'll wait for you at home, damn dwarf!" Chatruc replied, at the time Chanchi's joke.
