translated from Spanish: Alberto Fernández talked about the return of football in Argentina

The return of sport in countries recovering from coronavirus is a fact. In Argentina the cases are growing, but the footballers are eager for the return of the sport. In an interview with Sportia, Alberto Fernández discussed this situation and that of other sports that Argentines love.” The government knows that football is very important to people,” said Fernández, who had spoken with Marcelo Gallardo, technical director of River Plate.
As we know, countries like Germany and Spain are resuming their sporting championships. On this, Fernandez said: “Europe has been recording a fall of the virus for a few days now. This drives them to gradually return to the sport. We are experiencing an increase in cases.” In Argentina the situation is still complex, as enclosed spaces “are the greatest conflict” and changing rooms can become a scourge.

On the other hand, Alberto Fernández spoke about the educational and disciplinary capacity of the sport.” When a boy starts playing sports and knows the rules, he begins to understand what discipline is, with rules to respect,” giving as an example that, if a player “kicks an extra kick, he goes to the locker room.” Also, together with Ariel Senosiaín, he highlighted the social function of the clubs, which are known to be cooperating with pots for those most in need.
We did badly with Argentina and Argentina of the others. Argentina has to be everyone’s.

He also talked about the return of motorsport, a sporting spectacle highly acclaimed by Argentines. “In theory, one might think that, being only inside a car, can be safe, but in the teams many people operate.”
On the disadvantaged situation of women in sport, Alberto Fernández said: “What we need is to change the head of a society that is not accustomed to equality between men and women. Days ago we held a meeting with the Industrial Union and realized that there was not a single woman.” We have to work to make women, in every order, spaces to participate,” the president said.

Finally, he joked about this whole situation shortly after taking over as president: “No one told me that this had to happen, I wasn’t anywhere that was going to have to happen. Not even in the fine print!” When asked how first it was going to be when the pandemic ends, he replied, “I love you, give a kiss to those I love: the same as everyone.”
