The first ‘eliminated’ from Argentina: FIFA decided to expel ‘Momo’ as the voice of the ‘albicelestes’

FIFA opened a disciplinary file after Argentina vs. Netherlands and, waiting for the ruling to be announced, the first ‘low’ that the ‘albiceleste’ team will have was known. The streamer Gerónimo Benavides announced this Sunday that he will no longer be the voice of the Argentines in the stadiums during the Qatar 2022 World Cup.

The renowned streamer, ‘Momo’, was in charge of haranguing the fans, as well as informing about the line-ups, in each preview of a match for the team led by Lionel Scaloni. Benavides announced that he will no longer perform this function by decision of FIFA.

“Unfortunately, today FIFA informed me that I will no longer be the voice of the stadium when the National Team plays, without much explanation, they gave me to understand that part is due to what happened against the Netherlands”, posted on his official Twitter account, where he has more than 500,000 followers.

“This thread is only to thank those who supported me, to apologize to those who feel that I failed them, or perhaps they did not feel that I did what I had to do well from my humble place. I sincerely tried to be the voice of each one of you, as Argentine as possible, without acting it, feeling it and expressing myself as you would, to be one more as always “he added.

Momo was saddened by what happened, but also grateful: “Thank you for accompanying me in this dream that I lived, thanks to the AFA and to the players and workers of the National Team who have always integrated me (and it does not depend on them) and especially to the players for the moments of happiness that make us live and that They are the most important thing.”

“So far this beautiful and fucking work has come, I hope I have not disappointed you and you will see me blogging from anywhere, encouraging as always, singing as always, because the important thing is that Argentina reaches the top, not my role, I was a little link of something beautiful”he emphasized.

The Argentine team will play all the matches of the 2022 World Cup after reaching the semifinals in a thrilling penalty shootout. Now, those led by Lionel Messi will clash against Croatia in search of reaching the final.
