There are still sequels the barbarity that was experienced in the South Alta stalls of José Amalfitani, where some 60 Vélez supporters attacked the supporters of Talleres who were in that sector (there were directors and relatives of the players, who received protocol tickets provided by the Fortín directors, and some infiltrated fans). After the exchange of statements between Andres Fassi Y Sergio Rapisardathe fact that raised his voice on this occasion was Raúl Gámez, former president of the Liniers club.
“I would say to (Sergio) Rapisarda that he is an idiot. If he doesn’t have experience, ask.. I am acquainted with him, he could have asked me or any of the former leaders, and not just those of our group. There are many people to give you an opinion and then do what you want. Let those responsible take responsibility. Four, five years ago you were president of Vélez (for Rapisarda), you have to have an experience. Don’t be a guy who doesn’t have any knowledge, who acts unconsciously“Gámez shot in Puro Fútbol on Radio Late 93.1 (FM).
The former manager witnessed what happened because he was on the court last Wednesday, located right in the stalls in front of where the wild incidents took place. “I had the misfortune to see the incidents. It was a shame, a sadness. I left worried. In addition, the relationship with the people from Talleres is ending… Going to Córdoba was a luxury. There were a good number of microphones, many tickets had been sold, but it all ended in the worst way,” Pistola continued.
“They blame each other, and the responsibility lies with the organizer. You also have the responsibility of making partners, and one appeared on the membership card with the Talleres shirt. Then put the people from Talleres in the gallery where there were people from Vélez with the kids. Crazy. Because most of those people were from Vélez. It is one of the cheapest stalls and they went with their children. The directors should have divided a part of the court. Everyone knew that they had become partners, that Vélez had given tickets. Therefore, leave a sector for them, put police around them, pay more troops and that’s it. but no”, criticized the twice president of the Fortín.
Talleres will not receive Vélez fans in the rematch
The Córdoba security ministry decided that next week’s rematch at the Mario Kempes stadium will be without visiting fans due to the incidents that occurred in the first leg in Liniers, where some 60 Fortín supporters attacked the fans of the T that they were And Conmebol has already been notified of said measure.
Vélez decided not to sell tickets for visiting fans (not even the minimum of 2,000 required by Conmebol) and Andrés Fassi, president of T, came out with the top caps: “There are many fans of Talleres in Buenos Aires and it’s risky. Velez will be responsible for what may happen to our people tonight.” The omen became reality. The Cordovan infiltrators started with little songs and local fans approached that area where there were fist bumps and forceful elements. After the match, Fassi declared: “It was a massacre. We will request the suspension of the stadium.”
As a result of these episodes, the Córdoba security ministry took the measure of not allowing Vélez fans to enter for the rematch, to be played next Wednesday. “The events that occurred in the City of Buenos Aires generate a hostile climate compatible with sports safety.” The people of the Fort had already bought some 10,000 tickets and passages.
