Both complained at a press conference after the 2-0 away defeat against Atlético Huila about how he addressed them Édinson Calderón, fourth judge of the commitment valid by the Colombian Women’s League.
“Our technician speaks nicely to him and he responds by saying: ‘Don’t fuck around… stop fucking around’ and slaps at him. And our assistant stands up straight. How is that possible? Why is it equal to a woman and not a man? On the other hand, the Huila technician remained silent. There you can see the machismo, that is why we make the complaint publicly, for the treatment of the man towards the woman, ”said the player.
Meanwhile, the assistant joined: “Mr. Édinson Calderón does not seem professional to me to be in that position. doHow is it possible to launch those types of expressions? it leaves much to be desired”.
Given this situation, which occurred on Tuesday, April 12 at the Guillermo Plazas Alcid stadium in Neiva, Junior from Barranquilla remained silent until Saturday the 16th of the same month, when he issued a statement distancing himself from the members of his own institution, in fact he described what they exposed as a “uncomfortable subject”
“What was stated by our technical assistant and the player will be the only public statement in relation to this uncomfortable issue,” said the ‘currambero’ cast.
Consequently, the criticism of the fans did not take long to appear for considering that the club is not on the side of its players.
“Not even Junior supported them; they left them alone; uncomfortable topic? what a lack of empathy; support your players; what a sad statement”, were some of the comments on Twitter rejecting the position of the ‘shark’ painting.

Uncomfortable topic? What a lack of empathy, that is, they can sweep the coaching staff and the players that the leadership and the team do nothing, for that they were not released any statement. ⚽️????????
