The referee that expelled to both of the Vélez Sarsfield-Newell's, Ricardo Calabria, remembers how sucedieron the facts and defines the main characteristics that had the two trainers when they were footballers. Simeone Was aguerrido and Martino was more elegant
In an interview conceded to "MD", Ricardo Calabria has narrated what happened in the party of 29 January 1988 between Vélez Sarsfield and Newell's Old Boys, in which it decided to expel first to Gerardo Martino by a codazo and ten minutes later to Diego Pablo Simeone by double yellow card. The "Cholito" had then only 17 years, whereas the "Tata" already was a player valued and of quality recognised.
"Of the expulsion of Martino, surprised me the impudence of Simeone, his character. Without complexes, strong and without creasing , went in to the Tata, a player contrasted in First, that him soltó the elbow. 'Cholito' Held the face and gave four turns by the flat. The hit did not go for so much theatre, but so that it sanction , determines the intentionality", explains Calabria.
The ex Argentinian referee ensures that the Athletic of Madrid plays exactly as it did it Simeone in his period. "His game was aggressive, and this had a lot that see with the training. This typical harp of Vélez. Now, it is transmitting his character to the Athletic. Understand me. To know to a boy it is necessary to see how plays. In the football occurs the same. A team is an idea that you have to reflect in the field. The Athletic play as it did it the 'Cholo'".
Gerardo Martino, much more elegant and talentoso

Ricardo Calabria has defined to Martino like "Andrés Iniesta of his period, but more robust. It played of 5, but the same it appeared of 8 or it turned into the 10 of the team. Had the speed of the game in the head, that went him faster that the feet. Before that it arrived the balloon, already knew what had to do".
In this sense, and knowing how is, thinks that will fulfil his agreement with the FC Barcelona and stands out "his commitment with the ethical, independently of the results. It is a romantic of the football and of the life. Martino says you white, and will be white. It does not put in doubt. If it says that it goes to fulfil his agreement, is that it goes it do. It is a consistent type".
