Ronaldo phenomenon recently declared that the comments of the presenter and former player Neto, accusing him of “inciting hatred” should be banned. The exchange of barbs made headlines, with a response from Neto.
No UOL News Cupbroadcast every day from 9 in the morning (from Brasilia), the commentator Walter Casagrande Jr. intervened on the subject and condemned the speech of the former world champion striker with the Brazilian team in 2002.
“I see Neto exalted, sometimes he goes further, as he was with Abel Ferreira, I also criticized him. But Neto has his own style, he speaks in his own way, he has created a television character that a large part of the audience likes. And I think that Ronaldo is what I said when I had the clash with Penta, they were five times world champions, sensational, I would have liked to be world champion, but that doesn’t mean they can talk and do whatever they want. That doesn’t mean that everyone accepts everything they do or say,” said Casão.
“Ronaldo said it and Neto should have let it in one ear and out the other. What Ronaldo said means nothing. It has no weight, because when there is no discussion, it has no weight. Ronaldo said that comments should be banned. You know what that is? He’s a guy who is pro-censorship. When you want to ban someone’s comment, you’re censoring it. That’s censorship,” he said.
Benzema in the final?
The duel could also win a new character – Benzema. After leaving the national team before the start of the Cup, the striker went to be treated at real Madrid and his return to the final is not excluded. The possibility has produced some debate from commentators.
“He just won the best in the world award, so obviously in the ideal world theoretically he would add. But honestly I don’t think it would be worth the risk now. It’s a team that is fit, that is working in the Cup,” said Rafael Oliveira .
“I agree with everything Rafa said and I think, what to say, I’m sure he won’t call Benzema.
“I just didn’t understand that Benzema had been sent away. If his injury hadn’t been so bad, he might have remained in treatment. 2018, when he wasn’t even called up,” he said.
This was supposed to be the end
Cup surprise, the Morocco selection he was championed by many, but failed to topple France in the semi-final. For Renato Maurício Prado, the fairy tale ended when it was supposed to.
“I also understand the fans of Morocco, an African country, a Cinderella story, right? No one bet anything on Morocco and then knocked down the giants, they reached the semifinals. And they played well in the semifinals, it’s fair to say. Including putting pressure on France,” RMP said.
“But the closure, the big closure, the grand finale, it had to be Messi against Mbappe. The two biggest stars of this Cup. Two selections that, through different paths, reached the final with a certain margin, I don’t think it could have been another final. I understand that Morocco in the final would be something epic, absolutely new, but I have always supported Messi and Mbappé. Any team that wins will be three-time champions, so they’re teams with a history. That’s what I really hope to see.”
morocco played better
For Big house the final is fair and had its fans, but the moroccan team deserved a better result in yesterday’s match.
“Morocco, for me, played better than France. They came up, cornered, had more courage. There were many moments, most of the second half, where France looked like a small team playing outside home, as they were, there were only Moroccan fans coming up and trying to organize a counter-attack or keep the result at 1-0” Casão said.
“But still, I think Morocco deserved more in the match, but I was obviously rooting for the final for Argentina and France, Messi and Mbappé. Yesterday’s match could have been 3-2 for France. It would have been right for Morocco 2-1, you know? 2-2 and in extra time France won. Morocco played football to score goals. They didn’t play to lose 2-0,” he said.
Neymar detoxed?
Neymar he left the cup without guaranteeing that he would return to defending the Brazilian national team. For Renato Maurício Prado the return will take place, but Brazil should be without the player.
“I’m sure Neymar will play for the Brazilian national team again. The only guy I’ve heard say ‘I don’t play anymore’ and didn’t play, he was active, the whole country campaigned for his return and ‘Pelé didn’t l ‘accepted. Everything else says he’ll stop and then come back. I think only one thing, the Brazilian team had to let Neymar go. He had to have at least a year, or even two, without Neymar to form a new team that wasn’t all ‘Neymarzete’. To create a real team” RMP said.
