The coach of The Pumas 7, Santiago Gomez Corapointed out strongly against the organization of the Olympic Games 2024 due to the unusual conditions in which the Argentine delegation lives in the Olympic Village.
“The Argentine building had no water for a whole day. It was 35 degrees and there was no air conditioning”he assured Gomez Cora indignantly.
Speaking to DeporTVthe former player of the national team, also criticized the food provided to the teams: “It’s trendy that there are no proteins and that food should be vegan or plant-based.”
“We had to wait in line for 40 minutes to get a hamburger or whatever meat they served. Waiting 40 minutes is a long time for a high-performance athlete. Obviously, that’s why not many top athletes get into the Olympic Village because this is what happens with the food.”accurate.
He also said that The lionessthe Argentine women’s hockey team, had to leave the building where they were for an unusual reason.
“The Argentine building didn’t have water for a whole day and the hockey girls had to move to another building because the toilet was overflowing with poop. We spent a whole day going to the bathrooms in the dining hall.”exclaimed the Argentine coach.
Actually in Franceare in summer, so there are high temperatures and, if there is no way to keep the environment cool, one can experience great discomfort.
The rugby coach noted this: “It was 35 degrees and there was no air conditioning, because it is cheap and does not pollute, and the truth is that you cannot sleep when it is 35 degrees. The children did not sleep the first two nights. The ecological fans did not cool anything.”
Finally, he said that his stay in the French capital was not what he expected: “I’ve seen a lot of hostility. You can’t come from a high-performance background, used to certain standards, and end up sleeping on a cardboard bed or not having the proper food and not being able to eat protein the week before the competition.”
“It’s a huge advantage. I left everything that said Paris, in clothes, in memories, in things that were given to us. I don’t miss anything from France. The people who were insulted in the street, family and friends, the truth is that I don’t keep anything from Paris.”hill.
