In Brazilian soccer, unfortunately, coaches, players, referees, fans and even journalists have a bad habit of blaming a soccer game in refereeing a defeat. Few people give credit to their opponents or even take the blame for failure, seeing their own mistakes.
With VAR, the cry remains the same. Although we now have fewer refereeing errors, due to technology, the discourse of the sore loser remains the same. And so it was this Sunday with the loquacious Renato Gaúcho, who saw Grêmio defeated by converting Internacional 2-1, with a penalty from Edenílson in the 52nd minute of the 2nd half.
The play with which the São Paulo referee Luiz Flávio de Oliveira scored the penalty may even raise some doubts. After Edenílson’s header, the ball seems to touch Kannemann’s arm twice. The picture is not really that clear, but after seeing the play from different angles, I can agree with VAR, commanded in the game by Wagner Reway (PB).
Although the ball did not actually touch Kannemann’s arm, it is not possible to blame all the blame for Grêmio’s loss of another Brazilian title on refereeing or on the play itself. In this Brasileirão, arbitration errors occurred in several clubs. It is a lie that Inter are always benefiting more. Or Flamengo or Corinthians, as they say.
So far, Grêmio has had 16 reviews of capital movements in his parties, 8 in favor and 8 against. Inter had 5 against and 8 in favor. Atlético-GO, in theory the most favored team, had 10 plays in favor and 4 against. But until then, to say that the team has a good season is a huge exaggeration. Or that Vasco, the most “injured” (4 in favor and 12 against), only fights against relegation due to VAR.
After the match, Renato Gaúcho told a press conference that there is a plot in the CBF or referees against Grêmio. “They don’t want Grêmio to win.” In addition, he said that all the planning was destroyed due to the sanction. Now, who decided to save the headlines in various games? And look, it is not today that the Grêmio start-up team reserves itself at the beginning of the Brasileirão under Portaluppi’s command.
To make matters worse, Renato also said that he intends to play as the transition team or Grêmio’s children in the remaining matches, with the aim of damaging Internacional: the next game is against Flamengo, which may reduce the advantage. 7 to 4 points. Thursday (28). “If the president authorizes it, I will put in the transition team,” Renato said. Low and pitiful attitude for a winning coach and today among the best in South America.
When you are in favor, nobody is saying that arbitration is a shame. Never. On Matchday 3, when they welcomed Corinthians in Porto Alegre, Grêmio was favored after VAR failed to give Kannemann a clear penalty in Jô. Then, in the second half, he still gave a dubious penalty in favor of Grêmio, wasted by Diego Souza in the 0-0 draw.
In football, when someone is sincere in favor of the rival, the attitude becomes scandalous. When Rodrigo Caio admitted that it was his touch on the São Paulo goalkeeper and not that of forward Jô, from Corinthians, who had been sent off by Luiz Flávio de Oliveira himself in 2017, for the Paulistão semifinal, many fell on top of the defender -paulino.
Renato Gaúcho, who failed to win any game against the G6 team (6 draws and 2 losses), lost to Grenal after 11 games without defeat. In recent years it has triumphed over its rivals. He won the last three Gaucho Championships and has an excellent record against his rival (10 wins, 12 draws and 4 losses). But now he lost.
Inter, who deservedly lost 1-0 until minute 44 of the second half, improved with the plays of Abel Braga and looked brilliantly for the return. Accept that it is better, Renato. And try, in the Brasileirão 2021, to take the championship seriously from the beginning so as not to cry in the final rounds.
