The former coach of International Abel Braga stated that the final rounds of the 2020 Brazilian Championship had “coincidences” that favored the Flamengo and hurt Inter and that “absurd things happened”.
“I felt a lot of satisfaction and then a frustration, even a huge indignation, because it was somewhat abnormal, the way it was. It was not done in the smart way,” said Abel in an interview with Alê Oliveira’s YouTube channel.
Internacional was led by Abel Braga and led the Brasileirão until losing to Flamengo in a game that put the Rio team in the lead one round before the end of the tournament. The game had a controversial move involving the full-back Rodinei, sent off for entering Filipe Luís. The side of the carioca team said that he even asked the referee not to expel the opposing player.
“Had [coincidência] for and against. The coincidence was that it happened in two final games. Absurd things have happened. Surprised, [Raphael] Claus is the best [árbitro] of Brazil at the moment. It was an easy game. Their integrity is out of the question, but they did very badly in both games coincidentally in favor of one club, “said Abel.” Good coincidence. Only two games where one was harmed and the other was favored “, he added.
