The defeat by a landslide of the Águilas del América against Pachuca was not the only relevant fact last Sunday in the semifinals of the Liga MX.
After the humiliation suffered at the Hidalgo Stadium, some América players confronted the Tuzos fans from Pachuca; the videos of the event were immediate on social networks and there was a general rejection for the alleged “deplorable image” of the azulcrema in the face of the painful defeat.
Veteran defender Miguel Layún, who was not taken by Fernando ‘Tano’ Ortiz for the crucial match, led the players who shouted airily against a group of fans in the stands… But social networks once again disclosed a “half truth”.
And it is that the player of 33 years was in charge of clarifying things through your account on the social network Twitter.
Responding to the tweet with the video of the incident, Layún clarified that The discussion started because a group of Tuzos supporters insulted one of the Tuzos in a racist way. and his companions , specifically the Colombian Juan Ferney Otero.
“Report well. By their half headlines they mislead those who read them. There was a racist insult towards a colleague of ours. There is no more room for racism, period!”
REPORT IT WELL, those who read them are deceived by their half headlines!
There was a racist insult towards a partner of ours. There is no more room for racism POINT!!! https://t.co/PwcJO7AYnw— Miguel Layun (@Miguel_layun) May 23, 2022
In the same publication several fans affirmed that what was said by the man born in Córdoba was true:
I was there and if they insulted Otero and Aquino, Layun defended them— Fer Valdés “El 05” (@fervaldess) May 23, 6884
But there were also those who disapproved of Layún’s performance and asked him to have ” cold head”, which was not worth arguing against these people who damage the spectacle of Liga MX soccer.
You are very wrong to confront the fans. Cool head compadre, you have played in Europe, there, it is more critical.https://t.co/vGiiCOb4D5- Sergio Hernández (@ZACUALTIPAN60) May 23, 2022
Nor should you allow violence, you are supposed to be a professional, he is a frustrated and mistaken amateur. You want the media to do the job as it suits you, well for denouncing racism and they must deny access to all stadiums to those who offend like this.- Alvaro (@Alvaro_styles) May 10, 2022
