Diego Ribas, former player of Flamengo, participated in the podcast "10 e Faixa" and recalled an old theme. The former number 10 of Mais Querido recalled the episode in which a journalist published an article about attitudes inside the dressing room at Rubro-Negro, possibly against the coach.

At the time , Diego remembers being angry at not having been asked about the subject and seeing an article with such content being published without any demand for him. Furthermore, he says he saw it as a malicious act on the part of the professional. Everything indicates that the former player is talking about Venê Casagrande and the information published about the midfielder being one of the leaders of a pot within the club club.


“I was passing by because of a situation at Flamengo, and they did an article, and I said: 'Man, not there'. Wow, you're doing this, you're hurting the team, you want to remove the coach. I saw that, man, what impresses me most is that no one told me to know, to talk, gave me the opportunity. That's the worst thing you can do. You write the material the way you think, you use the source issue, which I learned, that's not a source, it's just bad behavior”, he begins.

DIEGO HAD TO POINT OUT NAMES < The former player also recalled that he made a video about the subject, but he was not clear what it was about. In this way, he responded to a request from PVC, to publish again, naming those responsible for the article

“The article came out the other day, for me, it was over. I turned on the phone, made a seven, ten minute video, said what I had to say. The PVC called my advisor: ‘tell Diego that the positioning was very good, but he has to mention his name’. The other day I named it, this one and this one. If the source is not very reliable, it ends up that he hides his bad intentions behind a source”, says the player

The Brazilian women's football team debuted with victory at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. This Thursday, Brazil beat Nigeria 1-0, in Bordeaux, with a goal from Gabi Nunes, completing a good pass by Marta.

The goal scored by Gabi Nunes was the attacker's fifth for the Brazilian team. Shortly before the score was opened, Rainha Marta found the net, but the goal was canceled by the referee due to an offside. Overall, Arthur Elias' Brazil maintained an offensive posture and control of the game after taking the lead. Nigeria offered little danger to the goal defended by Lorena.

Summary

When the ball rolled, nervousness was the team's main factor in the first minutes. Using missed passes and intercepted direct calls, Brazil was initially unable to trouble the Nigerian team. Without control of the match, the Canarian team suffered from quick departures from their opponents. So, in the 15th minute, goalkeeper Lorena saved the team by defending a one-on-one shot with Chinwendu Ihezuo.

After the initial tension, it was Brazil's turn to take control of the game. At 35 minutes, Antonia found Marta, who converted, but saw her goal disallowed due to the assistant's offside. But soon after, it was the Queen's turn to find a perfect pass for Gabi Nunes, who finished strongly and filled the net to put the Brazilian team ahead.

What now?

In the second stage, the team led by Arthur Elias kept the situation under control. Counting on Lorena's safe defenses, the team that won the silver medal in 2004 and 2008 confirmed its success.


With the triumph, Brazil takes second place in Group C, tied on points with Spain. In the next round, the team will face Japan, while Nigeria will face Spain.

Diego Ribas, former captain of Flamengo, praised midfielder Gerson, highlighting his qualities as leader of the Rio team. In a recent post on Instagram, the former player highlighted the reasons why he believes Gerson is the ideal candidate for the captain's armband.

Diego Ribas began his message by highlighting the experience accumulated by Gerson. "Firstly, experience. Gerson, aged 27, has already experienced a lot at Flamengo and abroad, including the Brazilian national team. He has worked with experienced coaches and players with a leadership profile. He has always shown humility to learn and develop, which prepares him well for this moment as captain", said Ribas.

POSITIVE ATTITUDE AND RESPONSIBILITY

Another point highlighted by Ribas was Gerson’s attitude. "What catches my attention about Gerson is his attitude. Regardless of the circumstances, he maintains a positive attitude. He doesn't despair about good times or difficult times. I remember 2020, when we were in a complicated situation. We held meetings and I asked him to speak. He never omitted and always took responsibility, saying that it was our responsibility to improve. This conveyed a great conviction", he reported.



TITE'S TRUSTED MAN

In addition to personal praise, Ribas also highlighted Gerson's role under coach Tite. The midfielder was captain on 30 occasions during the "Tite Era" and was a starter in the last 18 matches for Flamengo. "The feeling is that you can always count on Gerson. And a leader is someone you trust, regardless of the circumstances. He is doing very well, and the captain's belt is doing him good. The tendency is for him to continue improving", concluded Diego Ribas.
