Por muchas razones, esta entrevista es una clase magistral de periodismo. Respeta los silencios, sabe el nombre de los padres, oxigena el lenguaje no verbal y el protagonista habla de la esencia con poética popular.
Felicitaciones, @Jbruno84.
Ecuador acaba de hacer el partido más importante de toda su historia. Le ganó a Alemania, una cuatro veces campeona del mundo. Fue mejor, fue superior, la pasó por arriba. La hizo chiquitita.
Ecuador no es una selección pechofria, acaba de cambiar la historia para siempre. Salud!
HISTORIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Ecuador es la CUARTA selección americana que derrota a Alemania en la Copa del Mundo, tras Brasil, Argentina y México.
Ecuador está matemáticamente clasificada para los 1/16.
Toda esa gente que ha llenado los estadios en los que ha jugado Ecuador se merecía esta enorme alegría.
Toda esa gente que siempre confió se merecía esta enorme alegría.
Toda esa gente que remó a favor y no en contra se merecía esta alegría.
Y tú, cenizo que mataste a esta selección, aparca el odio y súbete a la marea amarilla que está más viva que nunca. Ya habrá tiempo para destruirlo todo cuando acabe el sueño.

🚨🗣️NEW: Zlatan Ibrahimović on FIFA’s new mouth-covering red card rule: as Almiron was given a red card for covering his mouth in the game between Paraguay and Turkey
“I have seen football at its highest level, the real football. Not this watered-down version they are serving us now. What happened with Almirón? A straight red card for covering his mouth? This is not football anymore. This is a circus run by bureaucrats in suits who have never felt the fire of the pitch.”
“Covering your mouth is now a red card? What is this, Big Brother on the field? FIFA wants to read lips, punish thoughts before they even become words. Next they will put muzzles on players like dogs. Players cannot even talk, cannot even breathe passion without some VAR robot or referee deciding your emotions are illegal. This is dystopian. Football is dying.”
“This rule was born because some players cry every week. One incident in the Champions League and suddenly the whole world must change. But elbow a man, break his leg, or spit — sometimes you get a yellow and a pat on the back. Two-tier football. Protect the protected, punish the rest. I have played in every league and I have seen it.”
On the softness of the modern game:
“Maradona would be sent off in the tunnel. Roy Keane? He would laugh at the referee and walk off with a smile while the stands burn. Pepe would have collected five reds before half-time. Today? Players are becoming actors, not warriors. They fall, they cry, they hide behind rules. Where is the masculinity? Where is the character? Football is not ballet. It is war. And they are turning it into a polite conversation with red cards as punctuation.”
“I, Zlatan, have scored goals that made stadiums shake and said things that made opponents tremble — without hiding. This generation is being raised soft. If you cannot handle words on the pitch, how will you handle life? FIFA is not protecting football. They are burying it. And one day, the real fans will rise and say: enough. Bring back the game.”
This brother called Pacho has ended the season with zero yellow cards in the league and champions league, it’s unbelievable.
He made his professional debut barely 7 years ago, but he plays like a veteran of the game. So composed at only age 24😭
You don’t have to spend billions to sign quality players, he cost PSG €40m, but Brainthwaite and the likes are valued at £80m. Sporting directors and scouts should do some work and stop being lazy, there are players out there waiting to be seen.
You see that club in Ecuador called Independiente del Valle, they produce solid players. From Caicedo to Hincapie, to Pacho, I’m sure scouts specifically go there to sign players.
These are the kind of leagues Tony Bloom and his Jamestown Analytics focus on.
Funny part is that there’s a story where Pacho didn’t want to go to Independiente, he had turned down a team before them because he’s a mummy’s boy, he said he can’t do without his mum😅. Independiente had to present a plan that could accommodate his family before he moved there.
This guy was scouted by Belgian club Royal Antwerp, and later to Frankfurt. Do you know the common thing amongst both clubs, he spent just one full season at both clubs before PSG, such smaller clubs can’t keep stars for long.
Bro has two champions league at 24, zero hype but he’s up there with the best. I can’t wait to see him for Ecuador at the World Cup. He’s a monster, a clean monster, not a typical South American defender😅
Ladies and Gentlemen, Willian Pacho.

C’est quoi le soucis avec Pacho 🇪🇨 ?
Italian efficiency when it comes to coffee should be studied.
In Italy:
- Walk into a bar and look at the guy
- Un caffe
- 30 seconds later it’s ready
- Shoot it
- Leave €1
- Walk out
In the US:
- Join a line
- Wait
- Order coffee
- Answer 12 questions: Size? Milk? Roast? Sugar? Temperature? Colombia beans? Name? How do you spell it?
- $12.34
- Ask for a 20% tip. Click 5 times on a ipad to have a custom tip
- Tap phone
- ask where to send the invoice
- Wait again on a different line
- Someone call a name that sounds similar to mine
- get the coffee
- too hot, can't drink it
- finally at temperature
taste like shit
