The Portuguese coach congratulated Alvinegro, but complained about the refereeing
Palmeiras coach Abel Ferreira questioned two decisions made by Anderson Daronco in the defeat against Botafogo. In a press conference, the commander congratulated Alvinegro for the triumph, but asked for discretion in the refereeing.
– These types of games are defined in detail. Although I think it was a well-played and hard-fought game between the teams, the difference was the effectiveness. Congratulations to our opponents who were more effective. There are errors that influence the course of the game. I found it an extremely balanced game. The detail that made the difference today was the effectiveness. There are others that I do not control. And I ask myself: what are the criteria? There are serious errors in the game today that influence and condition its development.
Asked about controversial moves, Abel Ferreira cited a foul by Alexander Barboza on Flaco López earlier in the match in which the striker managed to get in John’s face. The Portuguese also cited the elbow he suffered from Estêvão.
With the defeat, Palmeiras remains in second place with 33 points and saw Botafogo extend their lead at the top and reach 36 points. On Saturday (20), Verdão hosts Cruzeiro who are seeking rehabilitation in the Brasileirão.
