The coach believes that the Tottenham striker performed well in the first two matches of the qualifiers
One of the most criticized players on social media after the team’s first two matches in the World Cup qualifiers, the striker Richarlison he was called back again by the coach Fernando Diniz on this Saturday. So the Tottenham striker, who is going through a bad phase, will have another chance Brazilian team in the duels against Venezuela and Uruguay.
Richarlison had only a decent performance in the 5-1 defeat against Bolivia, in Belém, and even cried when he was substituted. Four days later, he found the net against Peru, but the goal was disallowed for offside.
This Saturday, Fernando Diniz was asked about the new call-up of Richarlison, even if he is going through a bad moment. But according to the coach the call respected the “technical criteria”.
“Did Richarlison play badly against Bolivia? Or did he play badly against Peru?”, asked the coach, making it seem almost like a rhetorical question. “It’s just that sometimes we don’t stop to think. He had a few chances and his ball didn’t go in, but Richarlison in my opinion didn’t play badly in either match.”
According to Diniz, the attacker’s participation must be seen well beyond his movement near the opponent’s area. “He made a contribution to the team, he played well, he helped a lot in marking, he hit most of the walls, the scoreboards, but he wasn’t lucky enough, in the national team, in these two matches, to put the ball in”, Diniz explained.
According to the coach of the Brazilian team, Richarlison has improved his performances at his club, Tottenham. “In my opinion he has had appearances that justify his call-up, and there at Tottenham he has already shown signs of improvement. Last weekend he didn’t start, but he came on during the match and was decisive, he was one of the protagonists of the match, with assists”, considered Diniz.
