Champion of the Copa Libertadores de América with São Paulo in 2005, Cicinho criticized the team after yesterday’s loss to River Plate-ARG by 2 to 1, which culminated in the club’s elimination from continental competition still in the group stage. The former player demanded more from the squad and said he had the feeling of watching training.
“Well, what I saw was not Libertadores, it was more a training session, because this is not São Paulo. São Paulo is love and blood in my vein. I shut up here, remembering that I am no longer a player, I am a fan and a tricolor,” he wrote Cicinho on his social networks.
In addition to Libertadores, Cicinho also won the São Paulo Championship and the 2005 Club World Cup with the tricolor club.
