Once again, Claudio "Chiqui" Tapia has once again demonstrated why he is so hated by all Argentine soccer fans. The president of the AFA published a message on his official X account directed, although without mentioning him, at Mariano Closs, one of his main detractors and one of the few journalists who criticize him so openly.
"He wanted to be a referee, he chose the wrong profession. Fortunately, he didn't make it, that's why there's so much frustration. 1996, Atlanta.", published the president of the AFA, making a clear allusion to Closs, who, according to various rumors, had tried to venture into refereeing some time ago.
El posteo de Chiqui Tapia
Immediately afterward, the comments on the post were filled with insults and criticism, as well as support for the journalist, who today is one of the most beloved and recognized figures in the soccer world. Among the most repeated phrases are reminders of the damage he is causing to national soccer and his baseness for using indirect references to Closs instead of mentioning him directly, among many others.
It is worth remembering that the commentator is one of the few communicators within the mainstream media who openly raises his voice against the official, which also generates more support from the fans.
Ultimately, this post is a new demonstration of the way of exercising power that has characterized Tapia since his arrival at the AFA, with a clear disdain for criticism and a permanent need to mark territory.
