Venezuela has failed to qualify for the 2026 World Cup and continues its curse as the only South American representative to have never participated in such an event.
And for President Nicolas Maduro, this was a serious blow, especially considering that the activity took place in the US and the tense situation between the two countries is well known.
After the 6-3 loss to Colombia in the final match, he was extremely angry in his commentary about the match.
" It was a very painful defeat, the entire nation requires a reorganization of strategy, identity, line of battle and work in the national team ," were Maduro's words, which were immediately implemented by the Venezuelan Football Federation.
She immediately fired Argentine coach Fernando Batista, starting the search for a new one to build a cycle that would lead Venezuela to an event like the World Cup for the first time. Meanwhile, the coach himself described this as a decision taken jointly with the Federation, since the qualification objective had not been achieved.
