Agustina Albertario broke the silence after being disaffected from the lions
On Wednesday, March 19, Agustina Albertario He communicated in his social networks that he would no longer be part of the lions and that he would speak after having prosecuted what happened. A week later, it would be incredible, Olga program, he talked about what happened with Fernando Ferrara, coach of the Argentine team.
“What I say are forms”that’s how everything began. Something that several players have been saying years ago, and that nobody changes. Agustina Albertario said he had a talk with Fernando Ferrara at the end of 2024, where he told him that he would return to training in January. Then he called her again, where he told her to return in March. “I told him in December that if I was going to get me that I did it at that time, that I was going to hurt my soul, but I was accommodating my life. I still felt that he laughed in my face, and that is what bothers me.” The player also said that the reason why she came again this month was because the coach told her that if she started in January she was going to have to take her to Pro League, something she did not understand why she said it. He always understood that if he was not yielding they did not summon her, because the sport is like that.
When the February Pro League window ended, Ferrara communicated with her, telling her that she was not going to take it into account for the Copa América that is played in August of this year, or for the 2026 World Cup. “He only told me that it was not because of my performance, but I wanted to try new strikers. It seems great, and it has happened to me with other coaches, but they did not disconnect me from the lions.”
He also mentioned the way these things communicate. “It happened to me and we saw it with other players who renounced the destroys. This is more than well that has their motives, but we are not career horses. I was always a person who says what he thinks and that is why I feel that today I am here. There are many players who do not dare to talk because in the past they took those who did it.” In the past, Agustina Albertario spoke about the difficult and the sacrifice they do to be where they are as a team, despite being amateur. It is a reality that grass hockey is increasingly professional, and great teams are professionals. Argentina is where it is for the work of all its players, but one can only imagine what would come if they had that help above.
The team said that everything owes to him. “Being in Las Leonas gave me a name.” Then he added that he knows that he does not have the place won no matter how much he plays more than 15 years ago in the national team. He also wanted to get the doubts that the players are millionaire, when it is not. “I live from the sponsors that I got on my own, but many times the role of the family is the only containment of the players.”
Containment. One of the words that was most heard in the interview, referring to the lack of support there. There is no psychologist who guides them, neither does someone help them at the entrance or exit to the lions. The player expressed the feeling that they don’t care about anything, only if you get sports. The human is not.
“I don’t know if there is going to be another chance, but I will always be predisposed for the selection. I always gave everything with love and I would do it again, but what matters are the forms”he finished.
