The president of the ANFP spoke about the decision taken by the international football organization which excludes Chile from the World Cup in Qatar for the time being. Now they will wait for the reasons for the decision to appeal.
FIFA dio un duro golpe a las aspiraciones de Chile para llegar al Mundial de Qatar 2022. El organismo rector del fútbol mundial decided to desestimar la denuncia presentada por la Federación chilena, por lo que hasta el momento la Roja se está quedando sin participar de la World Cup.
Once the news was known, Pablo Milad, president of the ANFP, referred to it and announced in general what will be the steps to follow.
“A FIFA decision that was not favorable to us despite the solid and reliable evidence that we presented in response to this complaint filed by this Federation through the lawyer Eduardo Carlezzo. Surprisingly, the decision did not favor us “, began the manager.
“The bodies that come now are to wait for the justification of the decision that will guide the appeal that we are going to make before the FIFA Disciplinary Committee. Thereafter, they will have to decide on the basis of this appeal if they maintain the decision unchanged or if a new window is opened for Chile. If there is no favorable resolution for our interests, we will go to the CAS, which is a natural process when a direct decision against our Federation is not accepted. “, He continued.
“We will follow the normal processes which are FIFA. Appeal with the reasoning that ratifies this decision and then carry out all the procedures that correspond to the Court of Arbitration for Sport,” he insisted.
Also on this occasion he expressed his personal feelings, using a football match as an example. “The personal feeling is as if we were in the first half of a game and lost 1-0. But the whole second half remains ”.
He also responded to the announcement of Francisco Egas, president of the Ecuadorian Federation. “It’s a normal, defensive reaction. We are not only defending a federation, but we are also defending a country . He may be confused by Eduardo’s statements, but that doesn’t mean they will reach other instances. Sometimes emotion is stronger than reason.”
