Taking advantage of the situation for the Women’s League, which continues adrift and without knowing its fate for the second semester, and the “boom” with the Women’s America Cup that is fulfilled in the country, the soccer player Caroline Pineda took advantage of their networks to compromise Jorge Iván Ospina, mayor of Cali, regarding women’s soccer in the city.
The reference of America summoned him to a work table with local players, not only for the Liga II-2022 issue but also to address other issues related to soccer and women. What did the president reply?
Pineda took advantage of the message that the Mayor published on his networks, in which he made reference to the Women’s League: “Women’s soccer is everything, having a tournament for the second semester is not a prize, it is an obligation,” said Ospina. The player reacted by saying: “Mayor, I invite you to a work table with different players from the city where it is not only the women’s professional league but the entire process that involves the development of this sport in women.”
Well, Carolina had her answer and according to Jorge Iván Ospina she “agrees” with creating this space and working together for women’s soccer. We will have to wait for when they will meet. The truth is that the Mayor was already committed and not only with the ‘Red Devils’ player.
It should be remembered that América and Deportivo Cali, the two representatives of Colombia for the next Copa Libertadores, are ready to take out a team and compete in the league in the second semester. There would be at least six other teams interested. They are still waiting for the confirmation of a tournament to be played between August and October, prior to the continental tournament that will be from October 13 to 28.
