Reconstruction of the unique legend of the Carlovich Trinche

The mythology of the human being is not without manipulation. The separation between reality and fiction is an exercise that is often ineffective when stepping on both elements. The hero exists and grows in our dreams. Imagination is always more powerful than reality. The magnetism that surrounds the figure of the Carlovich Trinche, sadly deceased when assaulted in the streets of Rosario, expresses the preeminence of the account of the events. They say of him that he is the best footballer ever, and that will be remembered by many. A player of whom there are hardly any statistical records and graphic memories of his career, but who was always accompanied by a mysterious and brilliant halo that glorified him as the myth that he is today.

The Trinche did not submit to conventional precepts. He was a footballer moved by genius, embracing the artistic concept of the game and the codes of the street. His uniqueness led him to complete a career in minor teams, despite the fact that the excellence of his football pointed to major milestones. The testimonies of Valdano, Menotti or Bielsa refer to a unique player, stunning and even out of time. His ambition was limited to being happy in the neighborhood to be the symbol of a football that no longer exists.
