The Colombian U-20 team entered the final hexagonal of the South American Championship, which will be held in Bogotá, after the initial phase has taken place in Cali. And by leaving the Argentine National Teamthere was a strong and controversial reaction from a controversial journalist who in the past he has already had strong statements about our football, our players and our ‘tricolor’.

This is Pablo Carrozza who, in the midst of his outburst and explosion against Javier Mascherano, lowered the importance of Héctor Cárdenas’s team. But as usual, he did not do it on the best terms and recalled very dark times in our country, making it clear that the image of Pablo Escobar continues to hurt and is a stereotype that has not been erased from the imagination of foreigners.
What is striking is that his mention was in the midst of a strong “fever”, but at the end of the video that he uploaded to his YouTube channel, he apologized to Colombia and even congratulated “la tricolor” for the pass to the final instance of the competition of youth teams. But it does not erase, at all, the strong qualifications that he released about our players and his relationship with the extinct drug trafficker.
Pablo Carroza went overboard for the elimination of Argentina and attacked the Colombia U-20 team
The gaucho was very affected and annoyed by the performance of those led by Mascherano, but he began to emphasize the errors of the goalkeepers, in the games against Paraguay and Colombia. Clearly, these failures affected the results and aspirations of ‘la albiceleste’.

And when he was getting hot against the Argentina U-20 coach, he was surprised to mention that Colombia did not have players in the best teams in the world and at that point came the unfortunate mention of Escobar:
“I said that we didn’t have that many teams, that we lost to Paraguay, we didn’t lose to France, Germany, Belgium. Nerd. We lost to Paraguay and Colombia, the team that beats us today is a fourth division team, with respect to the Colombian people, who play at Deportivo Pablo Escobar in Cali, Barranquilla or Medellín”.
And his words continued, later focusing on the fact that the tricolor footballers were not in the most important clubs in the world: “It’s a little team, it’s not that one is at Juventus, another is at AC Milan, another plays at Ajax, another at Real Madrid. Nerd. It is a ‘medium hair’ team, that beats you with the shirt and putting in “. And to end that hard fragment against the Colombian national team, he appealed to that imaginary that is held about Colombian soccer players:
“It is the first Colombian team, it is the first Colombian team in history, that beats you by putting in. Because Colombians ‘put in’ and ‘wrinkle’, ‘put in’ and ‘wrinkle’”.

Carroza continued with his strong accusations against ‘Masche’, because he did not take the U-20 gaucho team to the finals and the opportunity to play in the World Cup in the category will be lost. And when he had already released everything he had against the coach and some players, he realized many things and apologized:
“Know how to understand, I congratulate the people of Colombia who, capable, are watching this video and say: Che and what about us? I tell you the truth, I know there was one called Castillo and another called Castilla, I don’t know anything. I apologize to the Colombians, and I congratulate the coffee people for qualifying for the hexagonal of the South American U-20”.
With the passing of the hours and due to the viralization of his video, around midnight on the same day of the match, the comments against Pablo Carrozza have been increasing. Although it is clear that this is his way of making editorials and ‘spicy analyses’, which sometimes point to some and other times we end up involved in his ‘verbal diarrhea’.
