After Óscar Ruggeri’s harsh accusation against journalists for allegedly receiving envelopes with money from Claudio Tapia, the president of the AFA, Flavio Azzaro, responded with everything to the former world champion calling him a “media clown”. On his YouTube channel, the former TyC Sports journalist, who participated in the terrible minute of silence during the 2018 World Cup in Russia, began in his grateful disclaimer with the current member of ESPN: “He was a generous guy with me, who helped me a lot in my first steps on television, in the Football Show. What happens is that he got into a jungle that has to be banked and today he hired me a lot.” In this context, he continued: “I know that you are not lucid when it comes to expressing yourself. You are limited. You mixed the minute of silence with this Selection that are different things. You want the Argentine National Team to lose. And now it was evident, because when Argentina came out champion you were with an ass face,” adding: “You were a terrible coach. You have no qualities at all in the world of football, you are just a great storyteller, but you have no idea how to put together a football project, no one could hire you for something serious, because you are not serious. You’re a media clown, it’s the only thing it gives you. And you talked about envelopes? We all know that you don’t do anything for love, everything is for money, we have it recontra known, you are a sports ticket”.
Finally, he closed: “I am not afraid of you, I no longer have respect for you. I don’t like that one that you’re handsome, you’re handsome with a beak. You pity, Oscar. I put you in the mud. You had to go out and answer me. You got into the jungle. You wanted and want Argentina to lose. And I did not join the Scaloneta as you say. I have long felt identified with the National Team. And I was part of that minute of silence”, recalling the episode in which together with Sebastián Vignolo and Sebastián Domínguez they were in favor of Argentina losing the Copa America because “there is no project”, as they said. The former Argentine captain had lashed out on Friday afternoon: “Many wanted the National Team to do badly and they wanted to drag me along. 11 years I left life for the National Team!, I did not see my daughter born, I took time away from my family, and the president of the AFA now does not attend to me, he becomes angry. Now they are all uploaded above. Look I broke my ass for the National Team, huh?”
