Pirata followed the draw of the managers on the field in the semi-final of the Copa do Brasil and treated the loss of ownership at the home of Cruz-Maltino with normality
Striker Vegetti spoke for the first time since losing his starting place at Vasco. The player was present at the CBF headquarters to witness the coaches’ draw for the semi-final and final of the Copa do Brasil. The pirate treated the new situation normally and stated that he tries to help in other ways.
“Normally it’s part of my job, it’s football. What’s not normal is playing all the matches like I did (laughs). These are decisions that the coach makes, he has to respect them and we have to contribute in other ways. I always say that the important thing is that Vasco wins, if Vasco wins everyone is happy and that’s it, it’s part of my job.”
Vegetti lost his starting position at Vasco two rounds ago against Andrés Gómez. In this way, he saw Rayan shine from the bench as the team’s new center forward, with goals that led to victories over Fortaleza and Fluminense.
The move to the bench is explained by the lack of goals, which has lasted for eight games, Vegetti’s longest since he arrived at Vasco in 2023. Pirata’s last goal was in the victory over Sport on 31 August, from a penalty. However, despite the drought, the striker remains the top scorer in Brazilian football, with 24 goals.
