The treasurer of the Argentine Football Association (AFA) and always controversial Pablo Toviggini criticized former coach Ricardo Caruso Lombardi, whom he described as an 'opportunist' and someone who wants to 'kill' AFA president Claudio 'Chiqui' Tapia. Additionally, the president of the AFA's Federal Council called him an 'extortionist' and shared a series of audio recordings from the talkative coach, in which he questions Tapia's management and the presence of some 'shitty teams' in the National First Division. This post adds to a long list of publications on the social network X (formerly Twitter), in which Toviggini engages in conflict with all critics of the current AFA leadership. The habitual controversial treasurer of the Argentine Football Association's mother house, Pablo Toviggini, wrote a tweet again to defend Claudio Tapia's management, this time getting into a fight with Ricardo Caruso Lombardi. 'Sports journalism in Argentina,' begins the post, a profession where 'former coaches have become journalist-politicians and opportunists,' a phrase with which he refers to Caruso, a frequent detractor of 'Chiqui' Tapia on TN's Sunday afternoon shows. The post published by Toviggini. The treasurer also stated that 'his only argument is hate' and accused him of wanting to 'kill the AFA president because he never called him,' concluding the post by labeling him an 'extortionist' and a hater of 'Argentine football and the popular.' Furthermore, the post was accompanied by two audio recordings from the 63-year-old coach, in which he claims to 'kill' Tapia, in a figurative sense, because he 'did things he shouldn't have' without ever explaining why, as well as 'the disasters he is causing' in the direction of Argentine football. In the second multimedia file, the coach gave his opinion on some teams that make up the Argentine First Division, calling Aldosivi, Sarmiento, Riestra, and San Martín de San Juan 'shitty teams' and stating that he would prefer that 'Atlanta, Colón, Ferro, and Quilmes,' which are currently in the Primera Nacional, take their places.
