There is a situation in chess where any move a player makes will inexorably worsen his position on the board. Whatever. It is called Zugzwang. And this is the situation in which Jorge Vilda, who in 48 hours went from king of mambo to troublemaker, now finds himself in. Having regained his credibility after winning the women’s world title after being rejected by 18 players, the coach has seen a series of events that have plunged him into a miserable situation in the last hours.

Rubiales’ poisonous gift

vildaThe football player, who has a contract with the Federation until June 2024, due to Luis Rubiales’ decision before the 2022 European Cup in England, On his return from the World Cup, he was voted in for a contract extension for another four years. But the man from Madrid did not speak. This led Rubiales to nominate him publicly at Friday’s extraordinary meeting.

“The day we won the Women’s World Cup final was the most exciting day of my life and these five years. That’s why I want to make an announcement here. Together with the Federation Secretary, I have put in place the mechanisms for Jorge Vilda to continue working with us for the next four years for half a million euros a year. And I want you to stop being a sports manager so that Montse Tomé stops being second coach or harmonizes it. You deserve good contracts. You are the best coach in the world of women’s football,” said the man from Motril.

Vilda’s runner-up, Montse Tomé, instead of accepting the sporting leadership of federative women’s football, stood up and left parliament. The action that took place the day after the statement made by all the technical staff of the women’s team, except Vilda. There they presented their position to the RFEF, leaving only the coach, and publicly declared “the strongest and strongest condemnation of the behavior of the President of the Spanish Federation towards actress Jennifer Hermoso”.

They also warned of the “inconvenience of mandatory attendance at the meeting on 25 August”. “There was a particularly hurtful incident for the coaching staff as several female members were forced to stand in the front row. I try to make the community and players understand that they share the thesis of the RFEF president by revealing his image”. A descriptive as well as difficult article.

Hours ago, Vilda excelled in regeneration; he was able to renovate in his own way, even place one on the bench and stay in the office. But, The aftermath of Rubiales kissing Jenni Hermoso stripped him of the coaching staff, and his image was portrayed in the IPO of Rubiales, who denounced him again after being washed away with the title.. In the no-man’s-land, Vilda was the last to get off Rubiales’ boat, as even Luis de la Fuente had previously denounced the president’s stance, although Haro’s also cast the assembly in a bad light because of the photo that was applauded during the meeting. To the first row of Motril.

Saturday afternoon Vilda tried to make up for her position with a mild expression. She warned: “I deeply regret that the victory of Spanish women’s football has been damaged by the inappropriate behavior of our senior leader, Luis Rubiales, so far, which he himself has noticed.” The Madrid man held his position and went head-to-head with the new challenges players put him through.

players’ ordago

The players spoke definitively: “After what happened at the Women’s World Cup medal ceremony, we would like to point out that All players signing this document will not return a call for the National Team if the current leaders continue.”. In other words, Vilda will need to make a roster that will not include 23 world champions or 12 unlisted rebels. It’s a very complex situation to inherit from Extremadura executive chairman Pedro Rocha when the TAD confirmed Rubiales’ disqualification this Monday, at the request of the Supreme Sports Council.

Everything indicates that Rocha’s decisions will continue, with Vilda and De la Fuente continuing their duties. Next Friday De la Fuente will list the matches in Georgia and Cyprus, a call with high expectations to see the status of the players after someone like Borja Iglesias resigns. Later What makes sense is that Rubiales, already confirmed by FIFA, was knocked out by the TAD, with Andreu and Roche on the front lines, despite continuing to eclipse the ties of the Federation..

Rubiales wanted to help her (neck) in his last service to his beloved Vilda, and he can take her to the bottom with him. His words still echo in the meeting: “We’ve been through a lot, Jorge. Now they want to do to you what they did to me. We’ve been through a lot and swallowed a lot, but remember, when I saw this, I was so excited that I lost control. As soon as you won the World Cup, your first reaction was to return to the box and dedicate it to me…”. A heavy burden that haunted Vilda for the rest of her career. Vilda, Rubiales’ accomplice and enemy of the players, has no room to maneuver because no matter what she does, her situation will only get worse. A full-fledged Zugzwang.
