Miami, United States.
Another World Cup player has left us. Former Honduran football player Celso Fredy Güity NúñezThe 65-year-old died Thursday in Miami, USA, of a bone cancer that affected him for a while until he died.
Güity, who played in the extreme, was part of the Honduras national team at the 1982 World Cup in Spain, although he did not play any games. He was in the process of that historical classification, participating in equality and hexagonal under the orders of Chelato Uclés.
Celsinho, as they called him, lived a period of glory in football, but it was not very long. He played in two teams in the National League, in the Marathon, with which he was champion in 1985, and in Sula de La Lima. He was also an army legionnaire in the Municipality of Guatemala.
He decided to leave football to help his family, because at that time his salary as a footballer was very low and not enough and for many there was no punctuality in payment, he said in a 2010 interview.
His need to move on determined him to look for a better future and to emigrate to the United States, where his life took a total turn. The one born in Corozal went from the World Cup to the builder. With a lot of effort and work, he managed to establish himself on North American soil.
Güity joins the unfortunate list of former Honduran football glories who have died. Along with him, there are six former globalists who are no longer in this world after the deaths of Domingo Droumond Cooper, Francisco Javier Toledo, Roberto “Robot” Bailey, Roberto “Macho” Figueroa and Luis Cruz, who was the victim of the coronavirus.
