The Queens League It is the women’s version of the men’s Kings League, that indoor soccer tournament in which what really matters are the influencers who are the presidents of the clubs, the ones who take the penalties much more than what happens with the ball inside the soccer field. seven. But Gerard Piqué and Ibai Llanos They have been able to take advantage of the momentum and after the success of the men’s tournament on stream, the second season has begun and now the women’s tournament is also taking place. It has even managed to have part of the matches broadcast openly, which has not ended up being good news, because the audience data has shown that it is a sport that does not have a majority audience.

It is in the women’s competition where the latest controversy has arisen, which has shown that also in these competitions where it seems that everything is white and without intention, there are also problems that occur in all sports and other social activities. . It has happened that a game, a player has fallen to the ground after a foul and has complained in Catalan. It must be their natural language, but that’s when you hear someone, it may be the referee asking him to speak in Spanish. It is repeated several times.

It is a competition in which everything or almost everything is broadcast, also the conversations with the referees and they are aware that a large part of the public that watches them through Twitch comes from South America and they are looking for a common language that serves to expand the product. Hence the insistence of Piqué’s competition that conversations and all communications be in Spanish. It is a story that repeats itself, because on the first day of the competition, in a post-match interview, a player also began to speak in Catalan and the journalist asked her to answer in Spanish, as in what has happened on the field.

This has caused the networks to charge against Piqué, who at some point in his career as a footballer presented himself as the public voice closest to the independence referendum in Catalonia: “Lamentable Gerard Pique, imposing on the players in which language they should express their feelings or emotions. You will make gold but going over the values ​​that you say you have“, assures a comment on the networks.”Very bad gentlemen who rule in the KingsLeague: continually forcing to speak in Spanish… It leaves you like parasites and intransigents. Gerard Piqué and Gerard Romero I am ashamed of these facts. There are already 2 threats to speak in Catalan”, complains another user in Catalan. “Until the noses of the Queens League, Kings League and Kosmos. Because Gerard Piqué and his friends fill their pockets, they are leaving Catalan culture aside. We did not expect what he did”, the criticism continues in the networks “Forcibly correcting the natural expressions of the players’ game is a shame. Beyond intentionally marginalizing the language of 90% of the players and the territory where you dispute the League. A lot of fabric”, they write to him in the networks, in catalan. or: “”Remember to speak in Spanish” it is worrying and sad that we have reached these levels. As an entertainment creation it is indisputable that it is a success, but if we look at the issue of freedom of expression (as in this video) it is highly debatable “.

Although not everyone agrees: “Competition that is broadcast globally and with a good part of the Latin American audience, where is the logic? how easy it is to manipulate“, says another follower. There are many who say that nothing happens:” It is not a shame, no, and they are not necessarily correcting it. You have little intelligence
