"Instead of horny footballers, I prefer thinner ones"

Lydia Delgado confesses: she doesn't watch much football. She doesn't see it, although sometimes she regrets it, because soccer is an art, or so she says and we will have to believe her, that she knows a bit about art, plasticity and design.

Why don't you take football seriously? Do you like to swim against the current?

There was a time when it was funny to follow him. He enjoyed the good plays. But suddenly my mind turned around and I began to see it as a mafia-business. And now I see it as I see the political parties.

Don't you know how to value it?

Of course! I can enjoy that sacred energy that is created. Certainly not the same as going to Veritas for French fries. Seeing how they insult each other in the stadium has always fascinated me.

And you will not see the World Cup?

The World Cup is pretty much the same to me. But at home we are artists and now my son Igor (15) has come out and recently he told me: 'The World Cup starts in five days!'. And I replied: 'Oh, okay, Igor'.

¿...?

I guess you're finding out now.

And now that your son is catching you up, who do you want to win?

Hopefully a rare team wins it, from a country that is not a classic, for example Cameroon.

And since you are a designer, let me ask you: what do you think of the uniforms of the national teams?

I find them ugly, although some have a little grace, with those lilac colors. Although in general I have never noticed how they dress.

And what do you think of soccer players as models?

Horny men don't kill me. I like that they have a muscular touch, but that they are thinner, in the English style.
