🚨🗣️New: Luis Suárez reacts to Uruguay’s arrival in the United States for the World Cup, where the squad faced sniffer dogs and rigorous security checks:
“I’ve been in football a long time, and I’ve seen tournaments all over the world. But what we’re witnessing here with the USA hosting this World Cup is deeply concerning. Take the Uruguay team arriving — world-class players like Manuel Ugarte, standing there with arms folded, looking utterly bewildered as sniffer dogs go through their bags like they’re common criminals. That image says it all. These are ambassadors of the game, not suspects at the border.
This isn’t hospitality; it’s humiliation dressed up as security. You’ve got a Somali referee, one of Africa’s best, denied entry despite a valid visa — a man who dreamed of officiating at the pinnacle of his career, turned away at the airport. African and South American delegations facing extra screenings, visa chaos for fans and officials from qualified nations. This is the ‘land of the free’ rolling out the red carpet? It feels more like a fortress with razor wire.
The beautiful game deserves better than being turned into a political football or a paranoid checkpoint. FIFA chased the dollars — and there are billions to be made, no doubt — but they’ve sold the soul of the tournament to a host that treats global football stars and supporters like potential threats. Meanwhile, American taxpayers and host cities are left holding a bill running into hundreds of millions for security and logistics that FIFA largely pockets.
Football has always been about unity, passion, and bringing people together across borders. Right now, under this hosting, it’s being strangled by suspicion and overreach. The world is watching these scenes and cringing. If this continues, it risks leaving a bitter taste that lingers far longer than any on-pitch glory. We needed a celebration of the game — not a showcase of division. Something has to change.”
@CHRISTIANTRIVIN@SteelersTres60 Lo vi! Y casi puedo asegurar sin temor a equivocarme que el tipo traía bastante entusiasmo etílico, con eso de que la fama de ser de codo empinado lo precede... 🥃
@alanocturna Utaaa!! Pues con el puro detalle de la mega banda de "rock?" Mana🤢🤡 yo los hubiera instado a disculparse de nuevo, y hasta 3-4-5 veces... y que dejaran (regalada) la botella de tequila, ey... a Wilson.
@andreaibanco TO2 (O "TODES" x aquello del lenguaje enclusivo) sabemos quién debe dar un paso al costado. La afición LO SABE, la plantilla LO SABE, el mismo Dueño LO SABE!! Solo es cuestión de tener los tamañotes y ejecutarlo! Ah pero, "preferimos" la doctrina (mediocre) del "Standart..."
@Rubenibg Lo más lamentable del caso es q el dueño (Art Rooney II) Heredero d toda una dinastía, el q no lo ve, -o juega a q no lo ve-. Y prefiere solapar y apoyar temporadas d números "positivos" en dnde la mediocridad abunda, y x ahí una clasificación a playoffs "salva" la temporada.
@SteelersTres60 No era para ti Coach Ortega, en todo caso te ofrezco sinceras disculpas si en medio de la frustración me ofuzque y algo se haya mal interpretado. 🙏🏼
@SteelersTres60 Vamos a ver de que esta hecho el heredero de la Dinastía Rooney... Yo la neta no creeré en nada hasta ver, y no tengo ni Fe y esperanza en Mr. Art II, pero como dijo Lazaro "Vamo a ver..." 😵💫
@alanocturna@PumasELP A ver, o sea aunque sea de cristal?? 😳
Y si mejor en una de esas traen del retiro a la Rata Bravo? O mejor! A DL9 (Dante López)..?
#Pregunto... O sea #ConTodoRespeto... 🫤
