What Filipe Luís said about Wallace Yan
At a news conference, coach Filipe Luís classified the expulsion of Wallace Yan as “a very serious mistake” of the player and commented that he will talk to him:
– Wallace has been training very well for a long time. He is important to me and has already shown the quality he has. Today he made a very serious mistake and hurt us. But he is still very young. I will talk to him. The mental cannot influence the negative. It has a great potential. I thought of putting on speed, attacking space, breaking the Bahia line. He believed he could make room for players to arrive from behind. But unfortunately his expulsion happened.
