Ass s comment on the Club World Cup: We are tired of Eurocentrism, other teams deserve more respect

June 21: The new version of the Club World Cup is in full swing in the United States. Iván Cordovilla, editor of the Spanish media "As", commented on the appearance of this event.

The full text is as follows:

Just like no one will talk about the hobbies of Dortmund's defender, or the music that Benfica goalkeeper loves to listen to, why do we have to discuss the work of Oakland City players? They don’t have a jacuzzi, a high-pressure oxygen chamber, and there are no Michelin-star chefs to make coffee for them, but this does not mean that they are not well trained and do not understand football. It means that they are the third world in the football field and work cannot define a person. Perhaps in their offices in Auckland, they are accurately calculating their nutritional intake every day, strictly controlling their sleep time, and constantly absorbing football knowledge from various channels, while European giants play Fortnite all night and order takeaway with mobile apps.

At this Club World Cup, we are tired of those views expressed by extreme Eurocentrism. Obviously, the level of Auckland City and South American teams cannot be compared, but the latter has proved with the performance of the past week that teams outside of UEFA deserve more respect than before.

In some countries, their football players may not be able to afford Lamborghini, but that doesn't mean they are not working hard. Winning four consecutive Oceania Champions Leagues is not an easy task. Friends, imagine your best friend who plays football around you, even if he has played in the best game in the region, facing the substitute in Oakland City could be easily beaten. Young players who have advanced to the first team from Auckland City youth training can easily score five goals in any local league game. Especially when you hear all kinds of derogatory comments these days, don't forget this, the players in Oakland City are not bakers, they are real football players.
