Néstor
Pipo
Gorosito
, coach of
Tigre , gave his version of the incidents that occurred at the Arsenal stadium this Wednesday in the Argentine Cup match in which his team beat
Chacarita
1-0
and was suspended because the Funebrero footballer
Facundo Brandán
He received a bottle blow to the head.
Pipo raised doubts about the attack and implied that the
Chaca player
"headed"
the bottle on purpose.
"It is very bad that they throw a bottle. The opponents are not enemies, they are adversaries. But the images are a little confusing. The Chacarita player (by Brandán) runs to one of Tigre and heads the bottle. We should not throw
a thing like that, but don't head it either
," said Pipo.
🗣️ GOROSITO: "BRANDÁN HEADS THE BOTTLE, BUT THERE IS NO WHY TO THROW IT"

In addition to accusing the Chacarita player of deliberately putting his head so that the bottle hits him in the face, Gorosito responded to the president of the Funebrero, Néstor Di Pierro, who minutes before had said that the incidents "could have been avoided" and blamed to "Mr. Gorosito" for not wanting to change substitute bench.
"This could have been avoided.
We suggested that putting the coach behind the Tigre fans could be dangerous
. Mr. Gorosito did not want to change banks and we regret it.
I told him and he responded that he was going to shit me
. This It is not pleasant for football," denounced Di Pierro.
And he added: "We made a mistake and we paid for it. I hope the rod is the same for everyone."
And Gorosito picked up the gauntlet: "The president of Chacarita says something that I supposedly said during the week.
Total nonsense
. How can I say that we didn't change locker rooms or banks. They are all lies."
"I found out about the supposed non-change
for the president of Chacarita's money
. I have too much
trouble
putting together the team to think about which bank I'm going to sit on," Pipo closed.
