In the Amnesty International report, 15,021 workers died in the construction of stadiums for this World Cup in Qatar, five times higher than the Twin Towers, six times higher than Pearl Harbor. ‘The Guardian’ quantified them at 6,500. FIFA and Qatar have admitted three. In any case, the best players in the world will bless the place of such cruelty with their sweat. For those of us who enjoy this sport by feeling for a team, in this case Real, the national team, anyone of them, already makes us feel a little cold. First, you belong to a team. And then you start to appreciate football. Many Argentines are already feeling the first enthusiasm for the national team and surely the same has been the case with many Spaniards since the era of epic victories with Aragonés and Del Bosque, although this country is infected with eternal two-headed and stomach-churning that battle between Madrid and Barça. So, with the first difficulty that a World Cup has attached itself, the one raised in the blood of thousands of immigrants, who have interrupted the club competitions in such a sudden way, that they carry it until the end of the year and that, quite unfairly, it was built with a realist only increases our indifference to what is happening in that country where some human rights are trampled. In which a series of minions of power disrupt the live connection of a Danish colleague in an anachronistic exercise in censorship. Soccer returns on December 21 in Coria. In the middle, emotion…for points for the baton.
