Old School Millonarios - Los 100 más importantes: del número 100 al 96 con muchos goles.

·1 hr 28 min·7 clips

Falcao is ranked only #100 on Millonarios' all-time importance list—controversial because at his peak he was arguably third in the world behind Messi and Ronaldo.

1. LosMillonariosNet Radio's Old School Millonarios series counts down the 100 most important players in the history of Millonarios FC, starting with positions 100 to 96 in this episode. 2. The three main voices are Lucho and Mauro, who operate the channel, and Pisa, a co-host; a live audience engages via YouTube/Facebook chat throughout the broadcast. 3. The episode opens with the aftermath of Colombia's 2-1 friendly defeat to Croatia, before shifting to the main ranking segment. 4. Lucho argues Colombia has failed to 'find a game' since Copa América, with Camilo Vargas at fault on both Croatia goals and James Rodríguez having played only 39 minutes total in the past year for the national team. 5. Pisa notes that Croatia defended a 2-1 lead successfully with four regular starters, suggesting Colombia lost to a rotated side and should have done better given its individual quality. 6. The ranking framework is 'most important'—not best—covering historical relevance, cultural significance, and impact on fan attachment, not solely football quality. 7. The hosts estimate approximately 4,000 players have represented Millonarios across the club's history, giving context to what a top-100 selection means. 8. Position #100 is Radamel Falcao García, who has scored 12 goals for Millonarios and won no titles; his qualification rests on attracting a new generation of supporters who were Falcao fans before they were Millonarios fans. 9. Live chat showed divided opinions: some viewers put Falcao as high as #9 (shirt number reference), others outside the top 100; Lucho's father, who has watched all 16 Millonarios titles, said Falcao would not appear in his top 200. 10. Position #99 is Eduardo Pimentel, a combative central midfielder and captain who won the 1987 and 1988 Estrellas with Millonarios under coach Luis Augusto 'Chiqui' García, and was so aggressive in defending Millonarios in Medellín that he once required police escorts after a Copa match. 11. Pimentel was dropped from the Colombian national team by coach Francisco 'Pacho' Maturana after making inflammatory statements in Medellín during a club rivalry dispute, costing him a place at the 1990 World Cup. 12. Post-retirement, Pimentel became president of Boyacá Chico and turned into an institutional adversary of Millonarios in federation and DI Mayor settings, refusing in 2012 to cancel a league match when Millonarios played Real Madrid in a historic friendly. 13. The hosts note that Pimentel's entire family, including his son who now runs Boyacá Chico, are declared supporters of Millonarios' rival Santa Fe. 14. Pimentel was previously ranked #52 on Lucho's pandemic-era list; his drop to #99 reflects the cumulative weight of post-career conduct against the club. 15. Position #98 is Wilberto Cosme, a goalkeeper who contributed 15 goals during the 2012 Estrella 14 season, including the decisive goal in the final that ended Millonarios' title drought. 16. After scoring the drought-ending goal, Cosme celebrated directly in front of sections of fans who had been booing him during the same tournament, in a scene the hosts describe as almost dangerously confrontational inside El Campín. 17. The hosts debate whether Beckham David Castro, a more technically gifted footballer, should rank above Cosme; the consensus is that Cosme's one defining historical moment edges him ahead of a more skilled player without an equivalent decisive contribution. 18. The episode uses a card-reveal format: each player's slide appears on screen before the hosts discuss their ranking and field real-time reactions from a live chat audience. 19. The tone is bantering and partisan, with the hosts regularly joking about rival clubs, debating generational differences in fan memory, and sharing personal anecdotes about attending Millonarios matches. 20. Best audience: Spanish-speaking Millonarios FC supporters who want a history-oriented discussion of the club's most important players, with live debate and fan participation.
