The Colombian National Team remained alive in the South American qualifier after beating Bolivia 3-0 on date 17. Now he has one last game left and he also has to win to try to get into the World Cup playoff against Qatar 2022. This Tuesday, March 29, the tricolor will visit Venezuela, in a very complicated game.
It is not a secret that the red wine always plays a separate match with Colombia. This time, the fans emphasize that he has the opportunity to spoil the dreams of the tricolor, because he knows that if he adds up in San Cristóbal, he will leave those led by Reinaldo Rueda without opportunities.
In addition to the morbidity of the fact that José Néstor Pékerman is the current coach of Venezuela, a rumor was added in the last hours about the alleged interest of Nicolás Maduro, the president of the neighboring country, in the game next Tuesday.
(You may be interested in: Luis Fernando Suárez: the Colombian who, for now, will be in the playoffs).
Is Maduro interested in the game?
According to some Colombian commentators, without citing any source, Nicolás Maduro’s wish would be to see Colombia eliminated, without a playoff option, and for this reason he would have prepared a “juicy prize” for the soccer players of the Venezuelan team.
“We learned that the dictator (Maduro), at the request of the coaching staff, is going to give Venezuela a double prize if he beats Colombia”said Carlos Antonio Vélez in ‘Win Sports’.
Statements in the same tone by other national opinion-makers have been added to this assertion.
(Also: Did they steal Peru? This was said by the VAR of the ‘goal’ that they did not give against Uruguay).
The normal thing was the result, for Paraguay to do its thing and for the double prize that Pekerman asked Maduro for Colombia to turn out the other way around. Give Paraguay… https://t.co/gBoOexJUFK

So far, as the correspondent of EL TIEMPO in Caracas was able to verify, the Venezuelan government has not made any assertion in this regard. Also, no media in Venezuela has echoed the issue.
