At least six months without receiving salary. This is the reason for the controversy of the players of the Veracruz club in Mexico who have decided to remain immobile as statues at the beginning of the match against the rivals of Tigres in the Liga MX race to protest against the company. The adversaries respected this symbolic gesture showing solidarity to their colleagues but after just a round of hands they started playing their game. The yellow jersey team scored two great goals from distance, taking advantage of Veracruz's immobility in the field, against all the rules of fair play. In post-match interviews, defender Carlos Salcido told reporters that Tigres knew his team was going to protest for at least three minutes. "Is sad. We are all professionals. We all work in football, but you've also seen what happened, "he told journalists disappointed. The match is over 1-3 for the Tigres.
