Sometimes politics and sports get intertwined in an unhealthy mixture. However, a guy named Ronnie Brunswijk decided to take things to the next level. Probably Brunswijk’s name doesn’t sound really familiar. However, he became quite famous for an infamous occurrence that took place in a Surinamese football squad. It is possible to get 1xBet app download in Bangladesh to wager on football matches all over the world, including Suriname.
For those who might not know, Brunswijk is the vice president of the country, and he was involved in a football match in an almost unthinkable way. It turns out that, despite being 60 years old at the time, he was on the starting 11 of Inter Moengotapoe, which is a club in Suriname that he owns. His team faced C.D. Olimpia from Honduras in the CONCACAF League. This football competition is available in Bangladesh to those who download the 1xBet app, where it is possible to start wagering on it immediately.
Due to this occurrence, he broke the record of the oldest player to ever play in a continental football competition. It is clear that in his club, Brunswijk seems to have more influence than what he should.
A costly match
In general, when a person that doesn’t have the physical capabilities nor the talent to participate in a football match plays, the team in question underperforms. This is exactly what happened on the 21st of September 2021. On that day, the aforementioned match between Inter Moengotapoe and Olimpia took place. Matches of this kind are available when making the 1xbet app download procedure.
In general, Brunswijk didn’t play that bad. He made 17 passes in total, of which he completed 14. Eventually his squad lost 6-0, with the goals being scored by:
- Bengston;
- Pineda;
- Rodríguez;
- Reyes
- and Hernández.
However, ultimately the result didn’t matter, because many other curious things happened during the match and after it. For example, during the second half, Brunswijk was replaced by his son Damian Brunswijk.
But what happened at the end of the match is what was really painful not only for Moengotapoe, but for Olimpia too. It turns out that Brunswijk was seen giving cash to the players of the opposing squad. It was enough for CONCACAF. It decided to disqualify both teams from the competition.
The CONCACAF League and many other continental football competitions await users when downloading the 1xBet app, which works in Android and iOS gadgets.
