The Argentine National Team defeated at home by 1 to 0 Ecuador with a great goal from the captain Lionel Messi free kick in the Monumental stadium, in a tough start to the South American Qualifiers for the World Cup USA, Mexico y Canada 2026.
One of the high points of the triumph Albiceleste was the Holiday Romerowhich with its usual repertoire full of anticipation, aggressiveness and brand confidence, received one of the ovations of the night.
But the truth is that the beginnings in Córdoba were complicated for the current central defender of Tottenham. A young man Romero 17 years old debuted with the club of his loves, belgrano. But his first steps in football were made difficult by a lack of continuity. and he was on the verge of retiring as soon as he had begun his career as a professional player.
But the right word appeared for him, Tete Gonzálezformer Argentine soccer midfielder and today coach, gave advice to Holiday that helped him in his professional career: “Everything depends on you.”
“My technician in Belgrano, Tete GonzalezWhen I made my debut in the First Division and played my first professional game, before leaving for the stadium in the hotel where we were gathered, he grabbed me and put me on the lowest step of the stairs, a very high one, and told me: ‘’You are here today and do you see all this staircase? You can climb it to the bottom, achieving many things, but it only depends on you.“, Romero recalled..
“‘Today you start and it will depend on you to get here and stop or get to the top,'” remarked the Holiday. “I always remember that advice you gave me and every time I speak I tell him that I follow what he told me and that I want to continue climbing that ladder until I retire,” he added.
Cuti Romero’s problems with the Belgrano leadership
“That at 17 years old the club’s own leaders throw so much shit at me has been hard. That the sports director at the time tells me so many things, that he told me when I came to Genoa that after three months he was going to look for a job here (in Córdoba) again.…Those words stay with you because it was the club I dreamed of joining and playing for. They were uncomfortable and a little hard moments,” stated the defender.
“It was all very strange, a little long. I didn’t play, I wanted to leave and I never understood why. To this day I wonder about it, but they are things that remain in the past. I don’t need anyone’s apology because they are things that I am grateful have happened because they made me stronger in the head and mature faster,” Romero reflected.
