The controversy continues: Yoreli Rincón returns to the fray and responds to Catalina Usme

The controversy continues among Colombian soccer players. After the technician’s call Angelo Marsiglia of the 23 players who will be in the two friendly matches against Venezuela in Barquisimeto, in preparation for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

A photo was recently revealed in which Rincón is accompanied by the vice president of the Colombian Football Federation, Álvaro González Alzate, lor that it seemed to open the door to the team again, but that was not the case.

Since that moment there has been a shadow of a veto over her, although several have denied it, such as Catalina Usme, who has always stood up to the comments.

“There are other players who also asked, raised their voices and did not return: Natalia Gaitán, Isabella Echeverri, Melissa Ortiz. Many talk about there being vetoes. That’s a pretty complicated topic. I don’t see it that way. People do not know the context of women’s football and dare to talk about what they do not know. If people do not remember, do not remember or were not aware of women’s football, they do not know that one of the main players who raised their voice wasand Daniela (Montoya), and today Daniela is a player for the National Team and one of the captains. She does not have the supposed veto. That is a topic that does not concern us. We have asked (Nelson) Abadía the same thing several times, and his answer is always the same: the National Team is open to everyone, that is a matter of taste. We are all going to pass through here and one day we will not return. A number of players have passed through the National Team who are not here today. Dani missed a World Cup, chachi He missed the Olympics, and no one talked about vetoes,” Usme said in an interview for Bocas magazine.

Usme confirmed his theory in the program Deportes sin tabujos.

“’Yora’ hasn’t been in the process for a while. 18 players are going to the Olympics and we have had a successful process with the existing players. It is an issue that they have to choose and they will have their reasons for doing so or not,” he said.

Then, former soccer player Isabella Echeverry reacted, who also denounced the vetoes. Isabella reacted with laughing emoticons to an open Sports publication with Usme’s statements. Faced with all this, Rincón also did the same and on her social networks she wrote “Empathy”, accompanied by the image of some applause.
