Dudamel’s response
When asked what opinion he had of the journalist’s position, Dudamel showed discomfort and even gave him the opportunity to ask another question. “I am 180 minutes away from the final,” the Venezuelan began with the response and added “let’s not waste time with mediocrities.”
Given this, those present urged the reporter to ask another question. She nervously asked him for a message for the fans but the strategist interrupted her to continue answering the question and remind her of the club’s good times: “Look at all the beautiful things we have put together this afternoon without wasting time talking about nonsense.” the Venezuelan sentenced.

Vélez vs Dudamel, a rivalry with history
It is not the first time that Carlos Antonio Velez declares against Rafael Dudamel. Before, in Cali, he had already dedicated words to him when he won the title with the ‘sugar team’. “What a shame for Bucaramanga,” he mentioned at that time.
When the coach arrived at Atlético Bucaramanga, the man from Manizala challenged the Venezuelan because, according to him, “in Cali he won with Arias’ work.” Vélez, convinced of Dudamel’s failure with the ‘auriverde’ team, said: “Be careful, Bucaramanga has a challenge. It is the only one of that line that has not won a title. Win it then, but with your own work”
Now, that the coach is two games away from being crowned champion, having the best campaign in his history and qualifying thanks to the ‘sports advantage’ that being the best in the ‘all against all’ gave him, the controversy arose again with the statements by Carlos Antonio Vélez, once again, against Rafael Dudamel.}
