Palmeiras had already been won by Bahia at Casa Verde, in the first round of Brasileirão, 1-0. Recovering the three points was fundamental at this time when the fight for the first place is out of tight and the tricolor seemed falling.
Especially because Bahia would play without its main player, midfielder Jean Lucas, recently summoned by Carlo Ancellotti for the Brazilian team. It didn’t work out at all for those commanded by Abel Ferreira.
The lawn was terrible, just to resume the discussion about what is worse: Bad Natural Lawn or good artificial?
Then, in less than half an hour of play, Palmeiras lost Lucas Evangelista and Piquerez injured, against over 45,000 crazy tricolor fans.
When the game seemed to go to the ugly 0-0, behold, Ademir was called by Rogério Ceni to return after injury and make a great goal, at the launch of goalkeeper Ronaldo. From then on it was impossible for the alviverde reaction and, in fact, for very little, in the additions, the same Ademir did not expand the scoring by wasting the second goal.
Hard defeat, mainly because Palmeiras gave the impression that it had entered virtuously, so good were their recent results and performances.
That was just a route accident is just what the Palmeirense expects.
Santos de Duke
With coach like Argentine Juan Vojvoda, and without Neymar, Santos gives signs of recovery. He played better than Bragantino in a 2-2 draw and deserved the victory after losing, turning in four minutes with the goals of Argentines Lautaro Díaz and Barreal, but allowed the draw.
In any case, it already has standard, organization and, when playing with 11 without an extra, it is up to it.
It can mean, at least, permanence in Serie A, which is little to the size of Santos, but far before such disastrous direction.
Intolerance
Renato Gaúcho resigned from Fluminense and vented against antisocial networks after being fourth in the World Cup and being eliminated from the South American.
Surprisingly that someone as experienced as he gets carried away by idiocy revealed over the internet, but the case served to the beautiful article by journalist Thales Machado, sports editor of the newspaper O Globo.
It deals with what is called the “disagreement of the disagreement winner”, the one who does not accumulate credit with the achievements. “The club is no longer a community, it becomes a cafeteria, where frustration is treated as a service failure,” he writes.
And he concludes: “Football has always been made of frustration. Joy is born precisely from the rarity of triumph. Suffering together, laughing together, comforting in the bar or in the stands: this has always been the essence. The pact has never been of happiness guaranteed, but belonging is to endure: twenty years untitled, ninety minutes of suffering, the certainty that life is more loss of suffering. consumption “.
And that!
Being a continental champion yesterday and losing the state championship today is equivalent, in odious accounting that kicks away that the most sacred in the heart of the true fan: the feeling of belonging.
