The León club defeated Los Angeles Football Club (LAFC) in the final of the Concacaf Champions League, so a Liga MX team will return to the Club World Cup. The fans of the Fiera celebrated the triumph of those led by Nicolás Larcamón, but at the same time some made fun of Jaime Camil.

Such a gesture was due to the fact that the Mexican actor is a faithful fan of LAFC, so they did not miss the opportunity to insult him and attack his fanaticism for the MLS team. Faced with such a scenario, the comedian also used his official account on social networks to send a forceful message to his detractors.
Through Twitter, Jaime Camil congratulated León on his victory, but at the same time he sent a message to those who criticized him for encouraging Carlos Vela’s team, for which he insisted that he could receive the “madr*****as” with open arms, since he will continue to be a fan of the Los Angeles team.

And it is that, it should be remembered that the criticism that the Mexican actor has received began since he sang the United States Anthem in a Náscar race, since users on social networks attacked that gesture despite the fact that the actor was born in Mexico City.
It was for this reason that the star of the series El Rey, Vicente Fernández, defended himself against comments that questioned his nationality. “It’s not bad that I support a club like LAFC, I think that as long as there is a Mexican playing in those clubs we support them. But this man already sings the United States Anthem, ridiculous ”, wrote a user in networks.

Therefore, the Mexican actor immediately justified why he has sung the Mexican and United States anthems at different sporting events. He acknowledged that he already has American nationality, so he has the right to interpret it as a US citizen, and he did not deny that he is not still Mexican.

He considered that the criticism against him was a “selective indignation” and defended his position of being a fan of LAFC because there are also Mexicans who alienate teams from Europe or the NFL, including MLS itself. This is how he wrote it on his official Twitter account:
“I sing the anthem of Mexico and the USA because I have dual citizenship. I don’t see you being scandalized when Mexicans go to teams from European leagues or when they show their excessive love for ‘gringo’ teams from the NFL or the NBA, tons what? Is yours a type of ‘selective outrage’? You support the team that you love and with which you identify, come that love from the cradle, for friends, family or by simple desire.
Before the Echopark Automotive Grand Prix, at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, the Mexican actor intervened with an interpretation, although it generated criticism among the public.
And it is that, part of the anger of the fans of La Fiera for the fanaticism of Jaime Camil was also due to the comment made by the actor before the return game, because in an interview with ESPN he noted “We are going to break his c** **oa León”, a fact that generated a series of negative reactions from the Mexican public.
In recent days Jaime Camil has been criticized for interpreting the United States Anthem, and it is that one of the first occasions in which he sang both anthems was during a baseball event in the MLB; In that event, he first played the Mexican, followed by the American, for which he was denounced on social networks.
