Larcamón requests intervention from FIFA due to Ebere’s immigration issue
The Nigerian attacker has difficulties getting into the United States due to restrictions linked to his nationality that haven’t been resolved
Blue Cross won’t have Christian Ebere for the primary leg of the quarterfinals of the Concacaf Champions Cup towards LAFC this Tuesday. The Nigerian attacker has difficulties getting into the United States due to restrictions linked to his nationality that haven’t been resolved. Given this case, Nicolás Larcamóntechnical director of the Machine, requested the intervention of FIFA to keep away from related eventualities sooner or later.
“There is a question that seems very important to me that the FIFA attend. It has nothing to do with a sports suspension, but it is something that favors the rival team given the immigration regulations and legislation. I understand the legal framework of the country, but being a sports delegation that is under constant surveillance, I think it would be important to take steps in favor of competitive parity,” Larcamón declared within the convention prior to the duel.
The strategist underlined the significance of the loss, remembering that Ebere was the scorer of the aim within the final match: “We arrived with one less player and not because of our responsibility. It is an issue that should be addressed so as not to affect the quality of the competition.”
Larcamón: ‘LAFC, the perfect group within the MLS’
Regarding the evaluation of the rival, the Argentine coach highlighted the complexity of the quarterfinal bracket, describing the Los Angeles group as one of many benchmarks, and even the perfect, within the American league. For this cause, he urged his group not to be distracted by the following match towards the America.
“We faced one of the best, if not the best team in the MLS. We are clear that we must build the tie game by game and not look beyond, so as not to neglect what is truly important,” he concluded.
