The Golden Age of Football in Colombia had war, destruction and corruption. (Long before Pablo Escobar)
Between 1949 and 1954 some of the world’s very best players would congregate in a brand new league with no history, in Colombia.
Tifo uncovers how a “pirate league” attracted stars of the day (including Di Stefano, World Cup winner Schubert Gambetta, and Manchester United’s Charlie Mitten), how an assassination of a presidential candidate launched the competition, and how the fallout changed a FIFA law
forever…

@abdullahraki5388 3 года назад

Guys congrats for your video. I'm from Colombia and all the historical background of Colombia was correct. I'm really impressed with the accuracy of all the events you talked about during the video. I just want to say that sadly the death of Gaitán was one of the determiners that changed Colombia's history but for worse. "El Bogotazo" stopped the development of the culture, due to the fact that Bogotá by that time was knew as " La Atenas Sudamericana". And sadly this event marked the way of a never ending history of violence and division. But despite all of the already mentioned, Colombia has a very warm and humble people. And yes, I know Colombia's history during the last century it's all about blacks and whites.

@genekwagmyrsingh9433 3 года назад

Are you of middle eastern descent? What's it like down there for other ethnicities? Just curious.

@abdullahraki5388 3 года назад

@@genekwagmyrsingh9433 My mom is from Bogotá and my father is from Morocco. I was born in Bogotá and lived there all my life, but since 2020 I'm studying in Spain. My features are curious because physically I look as my father but my face has nothing to do with someone born in Colombia. You can say I am a walking mix of two cultures. Haha 😅 If you want to know what features can you expect from a Colombian person i wouldn't be able to explain how complex it is. There's too much colonial links between indigenous, the descendants of the people brought from Africa as slaves, a bunch of european and arab people and just as a first reference that would be ok. Anyway I would recommend you to deepen in the subject it's fascinating if you like social studies, history and also geography, like me :). I hope my response results helpful. PD: you can ask me something else if you want. PD2: sorry for such a long answer and also for the english mistakes.

@juanpablohernandez4805 3 года назад

Love it! Just a couple comments on it: Gaitán wasn't Bogotá's mayor when he was killed, that actually happened during the '30s. The problems between Dimayor and Comebol didn't end up in 1954 with the Lima Pact. For example, in the Libertadores of 1964 Millonarios faced Independiente de Avellaneda in the gruop stage. The final match between both, which had to be played in Bogotá didn't happen because the Argentinian side never showed up, they argue there was a problem with the way Millonarios players were singed, Conmebol agreed and gave away the points and the semifinal to Independiente. Greetings from Bogotá.
