A Colombian judge has prohibited right-wing presidential candidate Abelardo de la Espriella from wearing the national soccer jersey in political settings, after he encouraged supporters to do so at polling stations to bypass campaign restrictions. The ruling highlights the intersection of Colombia’s intense football culture and politics, as de la Espriella and his supporters have used the jersey as a symbol of national pride and political identity. Despite the ban, de la Espriella plans to defy the order, while his supporters consider organizing events to wear the jersey publicly during the upcoming election runoff.
