Real Madrid defeated Getafe, but the broadcast of the LaLiga match caused a lot of tension on El Chiringuito. It ended in a viral argument between Alfredo Duro, the match commentator, and Javi Balboa, former footballer and commentator. In the 78th minute, the match was paused for a moment due to shouts of "Ceballos, die!" during the Andalusian's entry, something to which Duro provided context.
Alfredo Duro recalled that Getafe's fans hadn't forgotten some words from Dani Ceballos in 2016, when the Madrid team was relegated and, as a Betis player, he said: "Let's see if you rot in Segunda and disappear". This context greatly angered Javi Balboa, ending in an argument that concluded with the former footballer leaving the live broadcast.
Javi Balboa Clashes with Alfredo Duro on El Chiringuito
While Duro was providing context, Javi Balboa was visibly angry: "People have a memory... Are you going to justify them saying 'Ceballos, die'?" Immediately, Alfredo Duro raised his voice, saying: "I'm not trying to justify it, I'm just explaining where the story comes from. Of course, I'm not justifying it. We're here to explain to people where things come from. No matter how regrettable they are. There's a strange history between Betis and Getafe because of that."
Balboa didn't find it amusing, continuing: "There's no strange history. Getafe was relegated and that's it... The truth is, what I don't understand is them chanting 'die' in a soccer field. The justification doesn't matter".
After these words, Alfredo Duro raised his voice even more: "I'm not justifying it, damn it! I find it regrettable. Right now, I'd go to Getafe and slap the guy. What fault do I have that there are 20 crazy people saying that... If nothing can be explained, then nothing is explained".
Javi Balboa Left El Chiringuito
After a few seconds of tense silence, Javi Balboa ended up exploding at Alfredo Duro, hitting the microphone against the table and leaving the live broadcast.
"Alfredo silenced me half an hour ago. You're talking alone... It seems like the microphone is yours and you're alone here. We all have character... Don't mess with me! We're always the same. Don't mess with me! Damn it! We all have a bad temper! Yeah, yeah... that's why. For everyone", concluded the panelist of El Chiringuito.
