El f\u00fatbol costarricense atraviesa una de las etapas m\u00e1s oscuras y desesperantes de su historia reciente. El tan anunciado \u00abrecambio generacional\u00bb se convirti\u00f3 en una transici\u00f3n sin rumbo, plagada de partidos insufribles, resultados vergonzosos y una afici\u00f3n exhausta de ver a una Selecci\u00f3n Nacional que no juega a nada ni resuelve nada en la cancha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mientras el banquillo de la Sele improvisa experimentos y busca desesperadamente laterales que den la talla, a miles de kil\u00f3metros de San Jos\u00e9 hay un futbolista que cumple con todos los requisitos para ser el due\u00f1o indiscutible de esa banda izquierda: Facundo Zabala<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El argentino, que dej\u00f3 una grata impresi\u00f3n en su paso por Liga Deportiva Alajuelense, no solo madur\u00f3 futbol\u00edsticamente; explot\u00f3. Fue figura y campe\u00f3n con el hist\u00f3rico Club Olimpia<\/strong> de Paraguay en Copa Libertadores y hoy consolidated su carrera como titular indiscutido en un gigante de Am\u00e9rica como Independiente de Avellaneda<\/strong>, compitiendo semana a semana en la exigente Liga Profesional Argentina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pero el verdadero esc\u00e1ndalo no es que Zabala juegue a un nivel superlativo. El verdadero esc\u00e1ndalo es que Facundo Zabala es nacionalizado costarricense y en la Fedef\u00fatbol nadie parece enterado.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bfSordera t\u00e1ctica o absoluta ignorancia?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

En un ente profesional de primer nivel, la direcci\u00f3n deportiva y el departamento de scouteo deber\u00edan tener un mapeo exhaustivo de cada jugador elegible en el planeta. Sin embargo, en el Proyecto Goal la realidad parece ser muy distinta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bfC\u00f3mo se explica que la Sele sufra horrores por el carril izquierdo mientras un jugador nacionalizado brilla en el f\u00fatbol sudamericano?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • La sospecha de la negligencia:<\/strong> La hip\u00f3tesis que m\u00e1s fuerza cobra en el entorno futbolero es tan rid\u00edcula como indignante: en la Federaci\u00f3n ni siquiera sab\u00edan que Zabala complet\u00f3 su proceso de nacionalizaci\u00f3n.<\/strong> Mientras los dirigentes se ahogan en discursos sobre la \u00abreestructuraci\u00f3n\u00bb, se les escapa por completo el radar internacional.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • El divorcio con la alta competencia:<\/strong> Si en la Fedef\u00fatbol s\u00ed sab\u00edan de su nacionalizaci\u00f3n y aun as\u00ed han decidido ignorarlo, el problema es peor: denota una soberbia absurda o una incapacidad t\u00e9cnica alarmante para valorar a un futbolista que compite a una intensidad mil veces superior a la del medio local.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • El costo del recambio a ciegas:<\/strong> Nos han vendido un recambio generacional a la fuerza, regalando convocatorias a futbolistas sin el roce ni la jerarqu\u00eda necesarios, mientras un jugador probado en escenarios de m\u00e1xima presi\u00f3n es completamente invisibilizado.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    La pregunta que la Fedef\u00fatbol debe responder<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    La afici\u00f3n costarricense ya no aguanta m\u00e1s excusas ni procesos improvisados. Si la Selecci\u00f3n Nacional realmente pretende salir del fango y competir con seriedad, la dirigencia tiene la obligaci\u00f3n moral de explicar por qu\u00e9 le cierran los ojos a la realidad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
