Cooperate, and they disappear.
The episode ends with Jadue on his knees in the pews, not praying, but dialing a US marshal. He whispers: "I need a new identity. Tonight." Rating: 9/10
Episode 8 is titled "El Contrato" (The Contract). If Jadue runs, the bloodletting begins. Have you watched S01E07 of El Presidente? Did the Xvid encode hold up during the riot scene? Let us know in the comments below.
Spoiler Warning: This article contains major plot details for El Presidente Season 1, Episode 7.
The seventh episode of Amazon Prime’s gripping soccer corruption drama, El Presidente , titled (The Cathedral), marks a brutal turning point in the power struggle between the disgraced former head of Chilean soccer, Sergio Jadue, and the untouchable FIFA kingpin, Julio Grondona.
Director José Padilha ( Narcos ) uses tight, claustrophobic framing in the Xvid rip—where compression artifacts can sometimes flatten shadows, but here, the dark, grainy aesthetic actually enhances the sense of entrapment. Julio Grondona (an electrifying performance by Héctor Díaz) is barely in the episode physically, but his presence looms over every scene. From his "cathedral"—the bunker-like offices of the AFA—he issues a single order: Destroy Jadue’s credibility before the FBI lands.
