Paula Dapena is a footballer, 24 years old and plays for the Viajes Interrías FF team, which played this weekend in a friendly match against Deportivo de la Coruña, in the Ciudad Deportiva de Abegondo.
So far there is no controversy. Her figure is involved in a bitter discussion because in the previous moments she decided to sit on the floor with her back turned, as a sign of rejection of the minute of silence for the death of Diego Armando Maradona.
Why did he do it? “A few days ago, on the Day for the Elimination of Gender Violence, these gestures were not made and if a minute of silence was not observed for the victims, I am not willing to do it for an abuser,” she told Pontevedra Viva.
“I said that I refused to keep that minute of silence because of a rapist, pedophile and abuser and that I had to sit on the floor and turn my back,” he continued.
“To be a player you have to be a person first and have values beyond abilities like those he had, which we know were spectacular soccer qualities and gifts,” he concludes.
At the end of the game, Paula’s team lost 10-0, curiously … detail that her critics did not miss on social networks.
Hundreds of people criticized her for her attitude, but many others congratulated her way of protesting.
