Verón’s partner hits back: “If you’re looking for me, I’m in the stands” | OneFootball

The definition of the Clausura Tournament between Estudiantes and Racing in Santiago del Estero will offer an unusual scene. Beyond the battle for the title on the field, the attention at the Estadio Madre de Ciudades will, at times, shift towards the Pincharrata fans: there, mixed among the supporters and far from the presidential box, will be Juan Sebastián Verón.

The presence of the "Brujita" in the stands would not be due to a superstition or a folkloric choice, but rather an administrative imposition. It is worth remembering that the president of Estudiantes is serving a six-month sanction imposed by the AFA Disciplinary Tribunal, a punishment resulting from the controversial back-turning corridor that the Platense team performed against Rosario Central weeks ago. Thus, the disqualification prevents him from attending a preferential seat, forcing him to attend as a regular spectator.

The strong post by Verón's partner

Verón's presence in Santiago del Estero, far from being hidden, was capitalized on by his entourage in what can be interpreted as a new chapter of tension with the AFA. In the lead-up to the final, Valentina Martín, the partner of the director, posted a story with both wearing the Pincha jersey, ready to head to the stadium, with a powerful message.

“If you're looking for me, I'm in the stands,” reads the text accompanying the image, a phrase that would serve as an ironic response to the prohibition of access to the preferential areas.
