O Youth he abused fouls, took three yellow cards in the first half alone, distributed tackles and hits on the ankle, in addition to abusing wax, with the complacency of the referee. However, the technician Eduardo Baptista complained of “anti-game” Botafogo (!?) no 1-1 draw this Sunday at Brazilian championship. He cited a specific case.
– Even at the interval level, we try modernity from outside. And you see Botafogo only wetting the midfield at halftime. This is an anti-game, this is a lack of respect for football. What was done here today is not football. So, I think there was a lack of respect, where only Botafogo’s attack field gets wet and ours doesn’t get wet. The scenario was totally unfavorable. And we came to play ball and we almost didn’t make it 2 to 1 there at the end – said Eduardo Baptista, in an excerpt reproduced by the website “GE”.
Regarding the match, the coach valued the performance of his team, placed penultimate in the Brazilian Championship.
– Another consistent and competitive game, within a totally favorable scenario for the opponent with the field factor, the crowd and the pressure. We endured well and knew how to understand the moments of the game. When it was time to score, we scored, we competed and when we had the chance to play, we played. Unfortunately, we took the goal in an isolated shot and in a detail. It was a ball that would inevitably go into César’s hands, but unfortunately it ended up touching Paulo’s (Miranda) hand. It’s about us continuing to work and persisting – he said.
