Episode Transcript

(00:03):
Friends and friends of the spectator's sports platform, welcome to this space
to talk about what we like,already with the countdown. The days for
Paris are coming to an end,two thousand twenty- four, so close
that we alert him. He wenton to the America Cup, passed the
finals of the Play League, passedso many sporting events and even the Tour

(00:25):
de France was over, which wewill also talk about today. But,
don Luis Guillermo Ordonez, editor ofSports of the Spectator, already ready for
Paris with the suitcase made and thespectator who will be once again at these
Olympic Games that will be held inParis this two thousand twenty- four.
Hi, Fernando. A greeting toyou, to all the friends of the
viewer, to our subscribers, tothose who read us in the printed newspaper

(00:49):
and also to friends of the weband social networks, because if man you
have said it, we are justa couple of days away from the grand
opening of the most important sporting eventin the world. So, football lovers
think that the World Cup is awonderful thing and all that it actually is.
The Olympic Games have that special thing, not the spirit of competitiveness and

(01:10):
everything that does not gather many timesthe World Cup, so yes for lovers
of olympism and all that is veryvery particular and very special this event.
I have been told by Usta Hartoabout that Olympic spirit of Memoi and the
Spectator who has been covering several editionsfor several years, already covering this event
of one thousand nine hundred fifty-six when he was the then sports editor,

(01:34):
Mike fore Era Nuges and in onethousand nine hundred seventy- two in
Munich was director Guillermo Cano and sincethen, uninterruptedly the spectator has been at
all the Olympic Games. It isthe only written media that has been at
the Olympic Games since that date.So following the trace of olympism, and
there we will also be from thisThursday and today, precisely to talk about

(01:57):
that beginning of the Olympic Games.Also a little bit of the friar tour
I also told Don Carlos Julio welcomeCarlos Julio Guzmán, a journalist already of
extensive experience and who has already goneseveral Olympic Games. Don Carlos Julio welcome
to this spectator' s sports court. Thank you very much, Fernando,
thank you very much to the editor, where Guillermo greets all the contectidos who

(02:20):
are there behind the glass. Iam very happy to share with you this
space of this moment, already fourdays from the beginning of the Olympic Games,
to share ideas about this coming,which is without a doubt the most
important party the world sport. DonCarlos Julio. That' s where I
put the question. First Olympic Gamesyou attended. First sports cover you made

(02:44):
of this event on site was ina thousand nine hundred and eighty- eight.
Then, almost the one who interruptedto Tokyo, who was there too,
has measured the Olympic Games pandemics.Before that, before that, because,
obviously, for my work in thecompanies where I was lending my job

(03:04):
contest since nineteen hundred and seventy-two with the Munich Games. Of course,
Munich, there' s a cover- up commercial, but that'
s from here Munich, Montreal,the Angels, Moscow, and then we
know clearly what particularity the Olympic Gameshave. What is this special, not
only bringing together athletes from all cornersof the world in very different disciplines,

(03:30):
but also the spirit that you feelyou live. It' s not just
about winning bean, it' sabout participating, it' s about competing.
It is to know the world throughthe sport Guillermo, it is to
know what it is that surrounds usin the sports environment, because it is
a cultural festival. It is acelebration of civilization, it is a feast

(03:52):
of coexistence and you have to learnfrom the customs of people very distant geographically,
politically, economically and socially. Speakingthen the Olympic Games. I sum
it up, absolutely everything is thecollection to ask for the sportsman. I
imagine it' s the best inmy case. Undoubtedly, it is true

(04:14):
and apart from them, what Itell you I call one there knows the
world. I knew from all overthe world, probably a Felps record,
a Husain Bold record. Simone Villes' marks still don' t move him
and excite him. But what heremembers, especially with the Colombian athletes,
that he has lived all the medalsthat we have won, that of Mariza
' s budget, the first ofLima Isabel. Why really knowing the story

(04:41):
of her before getting to that perspective, that possibility of reaching the Gold Medal.
Like every cra sportsman of Guillermo andFernando, dear friends, he had
a very complex, very difficult tour. Let us remember, for example,
that it was no longer written,it is not part of the classified delegation
of Colombia. Ah how then sheexplains that she was in campers at the

(05:03):
Sydney Olympics, because the International Federationof Alterophilia invited her for their brands.
Then, from there one values verymuch what was happening before, during and
after the competition. And then,for me, that was from the Colombian
artisans that excited me so much andalso in the expressions of Guillermo and Fernando

(05:27):
that of Oscar Figueroa, And thatstory also does not because with him I
shared the cry. I saw thatI had a very special relationship with the
fishers through Hook Carusco. You probablyknow me some contextubis also know that I
respect spaces a lot. So,when I was leaving three or four hours
before the competition, I was lookingfor space. One of them found the

(05:50):
athletes were in some rooms like aclinic of those who called the TSH they
put it in a small room.The athletes, in the case of the
weights, had these scenarios four prayerful, three hours before the competition and put
on the hearing aids, slept others, read, etcetera. And I came

(06:12):
to look for the interviews with them. But first I was talking with a
hook, but I was talking fora while, I mean, I was
starting to bring him to my goalto convince him. Tell me when I
can talk to them. So Ihave a very good relationship with Oscar and
I am very much pleased with everythingthat he lived clear in history with that
point of those at that time werenot the memes, but were the comments

(06:38):
Guillermo so dispassionate about the situation ofthe video that then and that they ream
for the injury of the Palanquetti andothers. Then that was also another very
important fact that moved me too much. Remember Memo and Carlos Julio that this
time, for Paris twenty- four, the delegation had a total of eighty
- nine athletes. It was supposedto be ninety, but Ider was low

(07:01):
on the delegation for an injury thattook him out of the Marathon march.
Eighty- nine athletes Carlos Julio,as has been seen in this delegation Andrés
and Toas. And we can alsosee images. We have also prepared images
of that delivery, the national pavilion, where we were there with Carlos Julio.
But how has this evolution of Colombiansport been seen, a delegation that

(07:23):
has been increasing, has been decliningmore than in Tokyo, but less than
what we had seen in Rio andLondon, two thousand and twelve. That
' s it, Guillermo. Ithink that Colombia, with the golden generation
that led us to this moment tothe thirty- four half conquered, reached
its maximum yield in Rio Río.And from there we have to get used

(07:47):
to the new names. For example, at this time we have eighty-
eight late thirty chove ok. Thereare some disciplines for Colombia, new for
so you hear that we are insport. No, but there are some
in which sails me canoeing, theskay burning, the freestyle are I don

(08:07):
' t know if it was MarathonMarton, no, but the triathlon for
the ladies. Yeah, it's also the first true, canoeing.
That' s exactly why pylogism,exactly pirating wins one. So I think
we have to settle down after Riobegan to show a little bit about that
moment when the generational Olympic relay inColombia has to appear. Here we find

(08:31):
a beach of new athletes in Olympiccompetitions. So, I think that should
mark the course of where it isgoing and what the budget of Colombian olympism
is. Right now, for example, the United States is coming. The
United States has five hundred and ninetyathletes. There' s a big one
in medal collection. Right. Wecall that as seventeen and eighteen percent of

(08:54):
the If not, no, no, there is no exact comparison. Then
and now the guillermo that has us. We have to get used to it
now, to know and to followthe behavior of this generation that embarks on
a path to arrive. I imaginethat with more possibilities to the Angels,
certain days of them, with anexperience more than Olympically, physically, mentally

(09:18):
and sportily clear, we saw thereare images precisely of the inauguration of what
is going to be the Olympic Gamesin Paris, Carlos Julio. The inauguration
this year project to be historic,which will be on Friday 26 July,
in hours of the morning approximately three, ten and eleven in the morning of
Colombia. What' s the prettiestopening you ever had. Seen from the
Olympic Games that you remember, Isum up the one we enjoy. What

(09:43):
happens is that the Guillemo is abit complex, Fernando, because each opening
ceremony has elements that make it veryspecial, very particular, and everything is
in the creativity of those who linkin the organized collective so that this is
a show and I would dually rescueus from the ceremony of to Beijindergin.

(10:07):
I think something else is that itis accurate as a particular ingredient and that
China wanted to show the river world, that is, as the great presentation
in society, as a world power. So, that was one thing to
charge the world, certainly there verybig political ingredients and it was a majestic
thing. Also, in one ofthe stadiums, the bird' s nest

(10:30):
by the stems, that is,it wasn' t. It was not
that they lit the flame like thatwith a man, so in the air
and so that mon parchment was not. And in the pipe a thousand people
playing there a few impressions, thecyclist turning that around. That was the
one I said, the manifestation oftheir millennial culture was a staging. It

(10:52):
seems like the world here is usand remember that in the sports field Guillermo
those very powerful games, America,first, but for certain things, but
they won the games, prepared forit and fulfilled it. Completeness. Now
it' s worth it. Youalso remembered car and excuse me for doing
it before parenthesis. There another recentceremony that also caught a lot of attention,

(11:18):
because of the manifestation of royalty,not what the aristocracy is, what
the London ceremony is, yes,I throw in it with James Bond,
but also, besides that, becauseof the historical cultural manifestation that had London,
that is, a country with abrutal cultural richness from music what we
talk about movies. I remember MrBen coming out, that is, there

(11:41):
was a whole cultural demonstration. Thereare important things there and there are many
expectations of this one in Paris.First, in the river Cena, then
in the river Cenobio, but firstit is done outside a stadium. I
believe that Guillermo, Fernando and sadfriends, that the opening ceremony is also
an organized competition. So of course, the great competition where the first element

(12:03):
that is put on the scene isthe identity of the culture of the country
that organizes the games, all thatI remember, all in Atlanta, for
example, is said at last perhapsthe one of exceptional touch a little,
but they were pandemic times. Notthat I look, Guillemo, I want
to say publicly with the virupert thatthe last hour left me on the adventure

(12:26):
just like the dance to lore.But William knows because in others we learned
many things, what Tokyo had preparedwas something majestic. It was also one
thing I remember, I have therecent memory also about what was the sixty
- four. At those times theceremonies were less lavish, less extensive,

(12:52):
true, but they obviously had theirsymbols. But the one who prepared Tokyo
for the two thousand and twenty wasreal. Not a bit of the connotation
of what they saw, read andanalyzed from Bellín, Cercanía, Asian culture,
etcetera, etcetera, but nothing wasreally possible. Yes, it had

(13:13):
its nice and charming elements, butit was a ceremony that little loved life
times this system gets a little unnoticed. The good truth and Carlos Julio touched
on a very important issue and itis that Colombian delegation that is going to
be there wanting that I wanted toreview with you the possible medallists, also
not the possible mayists, but theclearest options so that the people who are

(13:37):
seeing us also have knowledge of theathletes with whom we go to Paris.
Because, in addition, it wasa very good Olympic cycle of the Colombian
delegation, good pan- American,historical, Central American, South American participation,
but the Olympics are another level.Then we' ll have to wait.
The options are not really as manywhen analyzing, but then, let

(13:58):
' s see them. In termsof options, I see this delegation very
similar to that of four years agoin Tokyo, precisely because of the issue
of renewal. Colombia had its greatOlympic moment since the arrival of Andrés Botero.
To the coc and the modernization alsoin terms of the administration of the

(14:20):
sport, of high performance, webegin to have the methodologists. That was
one thing that didn' t existbefore. The sports sciences, the applied
sciences as a function of the athletes, the nutritionists, a whole series of
things that did not exist before.Before for an international event, our delegations

(14:41):
met a week earlier, giving themthe uniforms in the bag and trip.
From that moment on, that changed. Today' s investment in sport.
Despite this government, today is investment. Sport has achieved a better status,
more professional, more professional, wesell better and all that and I think
that' s the result. Orthat has resulted in good, good participations

(15:03):
in all events of the Olympic cycle. If now I don' t see
more than ten athletes with eight otherreals, from fighting over there, from
fighting over there doing the save.That is because in the eighty- nine
that go they are already winners,because only those who watch an Olympic Games

(15:24):
understand the true spirit of the righteous. If what you have been, for
example, an Olympic sportsman is ahero, he is a person of the
level of a military. They there, the military generate it if we take
them out and respect them. Unfortunately, if the Olympic athlete, with the
mere fact of being there among thebest fifty or sixty in his specialty,

(15:45):
is already a great achievement. Now, if we' re going to see
who they are who can really aspireto a medal, I would give ten
names and speaking of gold medals,they won' t come out of three
or four, because I honestly believethat Denis flower, by its frames,
probably Kevin Quintero and Marta to Johnnanamay be some surprise, some fighter the

(16:11):
fisher, yes, but beyond thatI don' t see how Colombia can
have a better participation, for example, to those of London two thousand twelve
and Rio two thousand sixteen. Notcar Julio. I take advantage of you
to ask him about those track cyclists, because they come with good marks.
Marta Johna runner- up of theworld in which Quintero champion of the world
in Keving. But track cycling,that is, we have already had other

(16:33):
occasions in which we also arrived withfavorites and track cycling is a very mental
sport and very of that moment.You see these two possibilities, for example,
and Andrés and everyone and we cansee the images of the possible mallists,
like how you see those possibilities ofMarta Jona that in quinter you allow
me to be a bit disciplined aseditor, because if I want to make

(16:55):
here a very special menu. Whenthis one spoke of the newspaper the viewer,
I think they look there is theman we accompany, good to be
artists, also, of course,Catheriy But I want to do a special
mission of how the newspaper the viewer, through a teacher, a very clear
example in the exercise of our profession. I believe faith Mike Ford was an
ugs. He was the architect ofthe campaign that allowed Colombia to go with
his delegation to the Australian Olympic Gamesin Melbourn in the fifty- sixth.

(17:19):
It is a fact that cannot passmuch less from crouching, as we say,
true, on the subject of medallery. I' m out there too
William about those names and are thoseperspectives arguing that sport with any other activity
depends on moments. Yes, truethe moment he had, for example,

(17:42):
Juan Esteban Arango, who was thegreat candidate to obtain the gold measure in
the OMnium, was exactly lost bya mental loss of his mind in the
first test. Recently we had anothergreat candidate because he had already had titles
on the track, Mr Gabry,also at the Omnium in the first,

(18:02):
but his loss there was all thepossibility more here, because they didn'
t tell me. It was therein front of him, Kevin Quintero,
which lost the possibility of being amedalist could be gold, because he,
at a given moment, decided todo what he considered and not what he

(18:25):
had arranged for the technician, whois the one who knows if you can
take it. Guillermo, you,who were a sportsman and I don'
t know how to continue playing footballas well, as it is going to
be forty years, the rhodillita doesn' t know that in a moment one
makes his own decisions to the developmentof his sports activity. But in these
cases where you have to be veryfocused, you have one to go to
what the coach told you, becausethe coach analyzed, like you surely too,

(18:48):
but not with the thoroughness that thetechnician. He told you, look,
you' re gonna do this andthis, and Kevin didn' t
do that. Fourth, then,at this time Medals of Colombia in cycling,
it can be. I' dbelieve a little more with Marta gets
better, because it' s notthat she gets better, it' s

(19:15):
that the rivals are more at Marta' s level. While Kevin c has
three papers for the art, verybrave, but very brave one of Herrandés,
Paul Tiritario, the trinet. ThenI hope you' ll agree.
I' ll tell him. IfKevin is absolutely calm, convinced and does

(19:36):
not throw himself away at the meetinghe has to cheer on at the kating,
he may be at the medallery.The other boys are winners, but
I don' t think it's enough yet for the connotation and the
great unknown of the legations. MrGaleria. How do you get to see,
I don' t know if you' re wrong, Guillermo, but

(19:57):
if I' m going to competein a stage where I' m bald,
on a stage where I don't have a bicycle with brakes,
on a stage where I don't have a hundred and seventy rivals,
but five, it' s verydifficult to think that the preparation got it
in studio de France. I rememberI don' t see him, I
haven' t seen him in fivedays, right, I don' t

(20:19):
see him, but obviously he knows, he knows how to work on the
track. Obviously he has not workedon it to be in line with the
demand given to him. But becauseof that accumulated experience that has the sagas
and foxes, which has to bea person there can soon, it can
be ruled out, Holy of course, cannot be ruled out in the weights
there is a lady and a gentleman. Second and second, if you see

(20:42):
the Pope entering the international peration,I also invite you. There they find
and in the weights. He didn' t use that first- hand information
he told you in the 80 kilograms. Mr Fernando appears on the entry list
with three hundred and fifty kilograms readyand Carlos lo Guzmán eight hundred and twenty.
Master. There' s nothing todo. Nothing to do, I

(21:03):
mean, you don' t goto the letter you did to me in
the morning. Menoa. There aretwo sportsmen who are damme and gentleman in
second place. Yes, of course, ok, more medals boxing perspective medals
boxing another inconclusive that I make myself, Guillermo and Fernando, Mariana Pajón.
I know Mariana, at this event, is losing to the artist. Yes,

(21:25):
of course, true, but alsothat experience, that cunning, that
way of running she can take youto the fourth Olympic Games, to a
probable medal. Certain of the rest. Well, I don' t know
the Barajas Boy, so now lookat the sports I was saying there are
moments. Carlos Ramírez, Carlos noMires, has won two Olympic medals,
Olympic, that Olympic, specialist,specialist in those, but remen remen see

(21:49):
what has happened at the doors wherehe has been. Luck is that of
or, I can draw it.Yes, exactly that in those moments that
says it who knows if suddenly thatluck is how wonderful I can accompany you
to several athletes, because all arewinners that you and I share from all

(22:10):
and want, obviously lore and darida, for example, that already they are
worth dollars, do not see alsogreat expectation then. But if I also
agree with Guillemón, no, Idon' t think we' re going
to get a little over the wonderfulriver medalry, that is to say,
nine ten medals of any metal arecoming in. That would be a performance

(22:32):
if we remembered that Kentukyo achieved five, four of them silver and one bronze.
You speak of Mariana Pajón, oneof the great unknowns andressito there for
you to prepare. We prepared avery small clip with the statements that recently
for the Cycling Federation his preparation andthe message for the Colombians of the Queen
the BMX, the Olympic Queen ofColombia, who, as he told him,

(22:56):
would reach his fourth Olympic Games,which would be the fourth medal with
the two gold that he has andthe silver one that also achieved in touch
Andrés and cough we can see theclip of Mariana Pajón. Please, for
me, getting to my fourth OlympicGames are very, very special much more
than I ever did It' sa lot more than I ever set my
sights on. I just wanted tobe an Olympic athlete and they won an

(23:17):
Olympic Games. But it' salready in my fourth Olympic cycle. It
' s amazing And it' swhen you realize that when everything comes together
head, heart, body, itcan become much more than you imagine or
dream to all Colombians, to allthe people who are supporting us, who
are giving us the best and aresending us that very beautiful energy that you
reach us in Paris. Thank you, thank you very much. Here we

(23:41):
are all athletes giving the heart.I am giving my 100% to give
the best and expect many joys.We are looking at the front pages of
that clip of the great medallists ofColombia that I had there the toprofrac that
are Mariana Pajón, c Oscar Figuerrathat we are talking about, Catherina and
Barro Mar Isabel Rutia until and thoseof Oro and then the double medallists.

(24:03):
The right danger mode swore to alvearLuis Javier Mosquera, who will also be
in those games. Maybe, butI use Javier is saying ranking the restane
up the marks. That' salso what you have to tell her.
Is it far? Is it far? Tale and let' s remember that
you were talking more about those medalists, about possible, about weight lifting,

(24:26):
about weight selection. He' sbeen training for almost four months now in
Europe, a very hard concentration.And Jason Lopez, who was the one
you were referring to Goku, he' s also been the brands that we
see right in the picture and hecould be a second medalist on the scalaforman
and four kilograms of a guy fromVulgaria. Yes, it was a place

(24:47):
medal in the World Cup, butOlympic and I find it hard on the
Ran What happens is that, anyway, those competitions are very strategic, so
are the people. We' renot gonna see right. But if you
are willing to see what a weight- lifting competition is like. They understand
that in the strategy you can loseMael Mosquera won that of the two thousand
four in the strategy And precisely speakingof that issue of mentality, I want

(25:07):
to value one thing of Mariana Pajónin London two thousand twelve, the flagman
and who was going to carry thenational pavilion at the inauguration was Mariana and
was a hairy nineteen years old,but the confidence that she was going to
be a medalist was so great thatthey told her not to participate in the
inauguration. We need you for yourtest. And all that I said was

(25:30):
a nineteen- year- old Chinathat carries the weight that the delegation,
because you know that winning a goldmedal in an event of these saves the
participation of many countries. Of course, and at that time, she saved
her from Colombia. We came fromBeijing we won two medals later there were
three medals with the dopings and thatpressure handled it in an impressive way,

(25:52):
so much so that because of whatCalo Julio says, I would not rule
it out any more because of hisexperience, because of that tenacity that he
has at least to be in thefinal and get to fight that it would
be already great that he reached afourth Olympic final. It would be wonder.
Of course we can agree on thefollowing of those we said about cycling
as Marta Bajona track, here inquintero flor Denny Ruiz, which arrives with

(26:15):
the best mark of the year andthat should not be forgotten. I mean,
the best brand of the year.Currently it has flower Denis Ruiz and
then the two boxers that we spokealso runners of the world, Jennie Arias
and Angibaldes, to take them intoaccount will be there and then two who
are there to not rule them out, like Sandra Loren Arenas and Mariana Pajón,

(26:37):
And after three of those that haveto be outstanding Tatiana renteria in the
fight also meditoria of silver pro olympic, Angel Barajas, who does not know
the level there is yes, hard, that boy has the special condition,
excellent tidad and good let' ssee that he gets aigo with him.
That' s also important to tellpeople that at the Olympic Games there are

(27:02):
teles disciplines that are like queens,whether athletics, swimming and gymnastics, rather
than football and baryls. This andthat many others that can be more mediatic
and all then, that also makesthe Olympic Games in those disciplines much more
important, for example, than theworld championships of those snowfalls. So,

(27:23):
if, for example, the pastWorld Championship of athletics were not the best
at their best, surely all wereprepared to make their way to the Olympic
Games in Paris on their top.I remember you and just let me complete
one is that I forgot Natalia Linaresso long and, of course, by
the marks as she arrives. Therewas not much expectation, but he has

(27:44):
just won in Europe and arrives withone of the best brands of the year
as well, because it is theclumsy Guillermo and Fernando, appreciated friends.
But I' m going to mentionAntoni Sambrano, because he has legs they
know, but he knows what's going on. Fernando is an athlete
who has not had the professional determinationto develop his career with the great natural

(28:10):
condition that discipline has. Yes,sir, discipline has not accompanied him.
He hasn' t stopped helping himself, because I' m a witness to
Tokyo, for example, what theywere saying to me, everything that was
lived, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, at the World Championship in Eugene,
Oregon. All right, anyway,but he' s an arteist who has
that condition and I don' tknow what, Guillermo, if I ever

(28:33):
think we' ve experienced a situationwhere you say I was wrong about this,
but I myself am going to tryto pay off that debt to myself.
Overcoming me in that test. It' s another chance. So I
don' t know if Sambrano understoodthat the clumsiness of his life said he
was left behind and that he hasthe possibility of being history. But for
the better, bigger than he thinksis that he has missed, he has

(28:59):
missed hard hand and that he hashad next door with a person in Barranquilla
who looks like the dad and thatif he can give him a pair of
spankings, they were given. Butstill. You didn' t understand that.
But I don' t rule itout. I don' t know.
I' m reviewing the things you' re doing these last few months,
and for example, about Cali.That' s a fiasco, yes,
but netational. You see that,in addition to an iasco n Carlos

(29:21):
Willio does not arrive with the marks, he arrives by the invitation, because
he falls a quota then, buthe had time to also make the minimum
mark and did not get it.I don' t know. I think
this is a very topical moment,very very much and he comes a little
bit from Lower, but I thinkCarlo Julio is right about that. We
challenge him, he has challenged everyoneand clearly, in the face of wounded

(29:41):
pride, very wounded, and heknows he has a great opportunity. That
' s a little bit like James. James is a man of great events,
yes, and he knew he wasmaking a great America Cup. Now
it' s on everyone' smouth and it' s quoted. Anthony
Sambarano makes a good Olympic Games andit is again the fact because really in
other uses so not then he knowsthat it can be the impulse to have

(30:06):
a good last part of his successfulcareer. Yes, of course, we
also have a couple of statements preparedby the two standard- bearers that were
given precisely in the award of themedals. I wish the character who happens
back there when he' s talkingabout Ney Ruiz Andresito' s flower.
Please, let' s pass thatvideo. But the truth is, my

(30:26):
feeling is still intact. I keepthinking firmly about that Olympic medal in Paris.
The truth, then, since I' m leading the test and the
best in the world for now withthe record it says two months ago at
the Ibero- American Championship, whichlaunches sixty- six seventy and so,
the truth is I' m veryexcited. And since I carry the flag
to the country, the truth withgreat pride knows that it will travel along

(30:48):
the track of Paris. I mean, the truth is that a great pride
and I only ask God and myfaith that I have been able to bring
the golden crescent for three days.That was the declaration of flower of neither
Ruiz, the day of delivery ofthe pavilion before his departure to Paris.
There is a character that happened therebecause I drown man, yes, yes,

(31:10):
then appears Andrés and all once wealso send that statement that Quintero the
other came to flag the national delegationthat will load the national pavilion at the
opening of the games that will bethis Friday 26 July. Well, it
' s a wonderful thing. I' ve always said that. It is
something that fills me with great prideto carry the flag of Colombia at this
inauguration in Paris. Two thousand twenty- four. It' s the political

(31:32):
games that, I' m sure, we' ll do everything and I
' m leading the delegation by goingto the opening. So it' s
a very nice thing for everyone tolook forward to and give us a lot
of force of x It' san extra pressure. I don' t
deny it, I' ve neverhidden it. It' s kind of
a responsibility. Now being on theode flag gives a little more, but
I take advantage of it. Iset it up in favor to give the

(31:52):
best and do things very well therewe talked about, not Carlos Julio,
about that mental point that we hadhere in quintero and I also talked about
an interview that we had with theviewer that came out our printed edition that
he said I need to disconnect everyone. I' ve been disconnected from everything
for several months, because that mentalfactor for him is going to be fundamental

(32:13):
on the track. But Don CarlosJulio also wanted to talk to you about
that victory yesterday of Tadek po Gachar, after that turn, getting the doublete,
the double crown, which was notsomething that was not achieved from Pantania
in the ninety- eight, thelevel of pogachar, that is to say
of that level of Pogachar, itsrivalry with Bingegard and this new title of
the Tour de France. The resultof the tour and the result of the

(32:37):
Giro Guillermo lead me to conclude withthe second place of Jonat Binghegar, that
they are the two best ruto cyclistsof this time in the world. Yes,
yes, and I' m goingto go against ninety- nine point
nine percent of the clique' stights, carefully analyzing things, I stay

(33:00):
with Binnegar or more cyclist than pogar, because it is that you think about
the accident that this gentleman lived onthe return to dais Vasco Ayudas tr a
situation that prevented him from preparing decisiveconvenience to fight the title to you revanque

(33:21):
next year and I there the direma. There the question of Kantiblas said.
Go see, cousin Roglin, whenhe lost the title with that gacha apo.
It' s wrong. I sayno to the ayo tante and no
longer and did not win it thatlittle more my fan cousin rolly for you
no longer win t the vansoun youdo not know look being within that limitation

(33:45):
because of his lack of time toprepare properly. Being second Binggar, it
shows me that this gentleman is alsoa super athletes and that conditions balancedly equal
of preparation. Without any random elementof fall or covid or flu or virus.

(34:07):
Bing And beats Mr Pogachar or atleast gives him more fight or more
fight, because the times they facedon equal terms, Bingegard good didn'
t stay second or third I rememberin the second both, he was second,
exact butando was second and then,in the next two hear and healed
him well beat him with an envelopenot to see that to me the one

(34:30):
that really surprised me, because,because of these two alvajs let' s
say to me the one that hadhim, because Remco was a cyclist that
we didn' t have to dothree weeks until the turn. But you
said no to the tour anyway.This man is not a man of tours.
One week he' s a classieand all that and the tour he

(34:51):
does if he left very, very, very well outstanding, poor, he
' s also a young cyclist whoI think if they know, take a
little bit and all that could cometo fight these two if he gets in
the fight, if he improves hisperformance on the mountain, he gets into
the fight with them two warning evidentlythat I hold him. Mr Bingegar and
Mr Pogals are above all those textsthat participants and I once lantoy the Turorri

(35:15):
not also as it was not astonishment, but the confirmation of Pogasher and well
arrive the exception of several cyclists inFrancis' status. Of course let'
s start, Mr Enrick, butMr Primo Rocgridge accident has already retired.

(35:37):
I even say it I feel alittle frustrated. Not because, as I
always put them, I was goingto win France' s you. I
don' t know, but witheverything Lu Guillemo was doing this year.
A good lead was preseason. Let' s just say it hadn' t
come out of the have in anyevidence that each major participant was involved.
Then I said well, here makea tenth place. Super, Super,

(35:58):
Super, Super, Super, butlet' s take a look at his
ultido. He was also very excited. As a result, it' s
not what one would expect and otherrunners, Bingegar' s colleagues, except
Georgin, are the others. Yeah, no, no. She used to
have it. It seems that Patacin' s change in the same one influenced.

(36:19):
Yeah, yeah, that influenced.No doubt. Now also confirming what
the ubitrago boy has, confirming whathas to be a runner, a process,
quiet process. I say that tocatch the Tour of the Year so
much so much, but it istar tenth already in the middle of that
group of runners is on their firsttour of France. It' s flashy.

(36:40):
It' s flashy. Yes,let' s remember that Santiago and
Traumas was the one in the backgroundtest, along with neither Felipe Martínez in
the Olympics and the possibility of theoropo gachar is going to be in Paris.
I think I' m fighting forthat gold medal too. But in
the timeline suddenly is that the routeis the read, because it is there
as is the layout. That's very much going, but they'

(37:06):
re not overtaken, very strong thenand the road test always has that.
Not that there was a leak,the control one that, for example,
the Italians are very specialized in that, in that competition, and the teams
that have more runners because they canmake equipment while one that is alone,
that is two or three, theyhave to get into the leak. It
' s clear more, but Ithink that with the time it made and
with the motivation it has, itwouldn' t be weird for me to

(37:30):
at least try to look for it. It' s a runner who tries
on any stage, that' swhat he' s got, too.
Not because you throw the fun thatcycling and attack give you that you choose
on any plane. Colombia, theOlympic Games, cycling, nothing to see.
Not me, no, I hopeso, for the medal. No.
No. No, look, forexample, when the Central American Games

(37:52):
and the Caribbean and Medellín were held. No Tuesday, kill no, you
' re not getting killed or I' ll update you and many of you.
Filovecent seventy- one in Cali,in the American pal, in Cali
we were super super we were Brazilto say, football and patient fights in
the cycling road plates in Cali.Yes very well and a Cuban arrived at

(38:15):
the road test and hit us inthe head. And we got to the
superstar, which was Cochis, wasthe superstar and we got hit in the
head. Let' s go ahead. We arrived in Medellín in seventy-
eight Central Americans and the Caribbean,we had fantastic road cyclists. We were
the candidates again. It is saidthat the circuit was designed to be won

(38:37):
by Colombian and I also took aboy from Venezuela. He hit us in
the head then the road season.Mr Santiago Uitrago is gone. There is
a page on any mocha that youconsult and sure among all of you also
called Italian cycling space. There theymake predictions, always with analysts, of

(39:00):
the possibilities for each race. Thenhe didn' t get out. Obviously,
they' ll do it on Thursdayor you' re coming with the
favorites for the sheet against him.Today, on Sunday it has been done
since the next one is the Route. But I don' t think I
' ve even put thirty places init Buitrago, if not even even,
but it' s not like Arrigowasn' t in London, nor Sebastian

(39:23):
who didn' t swim in thoughSergio could have been and that' s
why he was there in the cadidathen in cyclone Route. I would be
very, very quiet, very grateful, better with Felipe Martínez, if he
remains among the top ten of thegenerally contralelo. Rico, Rico was eighth
in Tokyo, no yes, Olympicdiploma Olvia is correct, onlins riplon,

(39:45):
correct and yesterday we saw on thetable against Ron' s closure. All
right, both of you on theroad. It' s with questioning.
Now in the ladies, Paulita Patiñohas to stick to a lope that one
and says or one of my bolerínbecause she doesn' t have more perspective,

(40:05):
but also and it' s goingto be it would be very good
and yes accurate that they were amongthe first twenty. That is to say,
it is the prospects already to closeCarlos Julio, and the spectator,
also part of the Olympic Games.We' ll be traveling by tomorrow night,
arriving in Paris on Wednesday. Besides, we' re going to be
in Lyon accompanying the women' steam that debuts against France. We expect

(40:29):
female selection is difficult, because ithas a hard group France, Canada,
in New Zealand. But you haveto go along, because if you judge
if we are talking about brands inthe women' s world, Colombia made
a very good participation with respect toits rivals, something hope to have the
face that they. What to startwith is that it is a difficult group,

(40:50):
a too heavy piano remember that itis playing against the hosts who have
not so done a great World Cupin the past, because they will be
local and surely the expectations about itare very high. I believe that psi
Colombia is going to overcome the groupphase and all that, because it is
already a good performance. It seemsto me that the most important thing,
beyond the outcome, is that theycontinue to demonstrate the development and process of

(41:15):
Colombian women' s football. Theresults will surely continue to be given,
because we are having them in thesub seventeen, in the sub twenty,
I worry more or would put morefocus on what they do here to the
sub twenty in the World Cup,although in August what you have we could
demand a little more for their pastand because they will be local. But

(41:37):
what I' m telling you,if the team goes on to the second
round, it would already be agood result, because they also face the
current champion, who is Canada.Yes, yes, if it' s
a team of the top four inthe Eurocup. Yeah, but, right
now, that new Zealand, theConlon has some results to show exactly,
not to pretend to beat Canada.They are going to French now to arrive

(41:59):
with seriousness, to take the duelwith serida. The last question you'
re talking about, right now,Falcao' s deut. I don'
t want to stop at the campsites. I like that it' s like
you saw it, because I thinkit' s a phenomenon. It is
a phenomenon, the fake phenomenon thatreached Colombian professional football. Of course,
he still has a lot to dowith the team. He also needs the

(42:20):
team to work a little bit better, because millionaires haven' t started yet.
But what there is no doubt aboutis that for the show and for
the sport as such is an immenserevulsive that to the surroundings of the stadium
another that noticed people, people buyingshirts and everything. Then, evidently,
for Colombian pretional football as such,the arrival of falcaus was going to be

(42:42):
a wonderful thing. We didn't want to let that happen to a
Carlos Julio. Thank you very muchfor participating today in this forum of spectator
