This Sunday, in the first half of the game between Jaguars of Cordoba and Santa Fe, In Montería, the greatest attention was drawn by an unusual event that featured the defender Cardinal Geisson Perea.
The player, when he approached the referee, lowered his shorts and showed his private parts, without realizing that the TV camera captured him.
After keeping quiet for a few days, Perea decided to speak and give his version of what happened. He said that he is very affected, he and his family.
Perea’s version
“It really makes me sad, the truth was I was not going to comment on the situation, but seeing my father’s sadness and concern, seeing that reflection in my mother, the concern in my brothers, made me raise my voice. And my wife and my daughter… I’m going to speak as a person, about what happened, I leave the context of a player. We are people. We have the joy of being footballers and thank God for that, but we are people,” Perea began in statements to the program Vbar of Caracol Radio.
Later, he clarified what happened. “What happened was that I was fixing my lycra, I had that space, because when I enter the court it is to play, not thinking about a camera that can see me, they are synonymous with emotions that move, I unconsciously accommodated myself, I never wanted to show my private parts. I’m talking about the man who says I’m disrespectful, “he added in reference to the photo and the images and the comments circulating on social networks.
“My daughter and my wife are affected by this, this is the society that we have created in the networks, believing a bad person, who does what he did (show the photo) to stain the person’s integrity,” he added.
“My daughter is 4 years old and we leave this to her. They talk about a sanction, that I am disrespectful. I say, if you have arguments, show them. I feel affected, I will never give an opinion if they criticize me from sports, but not that they criticize the person , my values”.
“I don’t play for the camera. When I see the photo…” Perea pointed out.
