Madam Vice President, I had not had the pleasure of meeting you and congratulating you because that medal that the girls won last night is yours, in large part, because you have been the godmother of those girls. Without you those girls would not be performing and representing us well.“Mondragón said during his speech, which was criticized for detracting from the work of the ‘Superpowers’.

In this regard, Luis Carlos Vélez questioned him that the Moroccan goalkeeper, Yassine Bounou, known as Bono, is a “penalty shooter. Of 50, he had tackled 26 percent before today and demonstrated that constant“. To which Mondragón replied: “It is that to tackle them you have to throw yourself to the side that is.”

The memes did not wait. The commentator was labeled “basic” and “shallow” in his football analysis. “That happens when one is not prepared to hold office. Faryd Mondragón was an excellent goalkeeper, but as a commentator he does not give it,” wrote a Twitter user.
