The exchange of thrusts between Henrique Dourado It is Bruno Rodrigues generated controversy in cruise. So much so that pepa had to intervene in the case during the night of last Wednesday, 10, in the Mineirão locker room. The coach left the stadium extremely irritated with what happened, but warned that everything was resolved during his press conference.

All the controversy between Henrique Dourado and Bruno Rodrigues happened around the 30th minute, when the referee awarded a penalty to Cruzeiro. Highlight of the team since last season, the number 9 was chosen for the collection and he was wrong. The referee ordered him to return because of Fábio, who got ahead of him at the time of the crash. The second time, the new striker from Raposa got the ball and didn’t let go.

From then on, Bruno Rodrigues and Henrique Dourado exchanged pushes and some not very affectionate words. The Cruzeiro cast tried to minimize what happened and separate the two.

Pepa, at a press conference, made it clear that he no longer wants to see this type of episode on his team.

“Ugly case, inadmissible, but it’s solved, it’s closed. We don’t wait to settle later. It was an irresponsible, inadmissible act, but it’s resolved. But let’s not crucify anyone, but it was ugly. Gilberto and Bruno to beat, it has nothing to do with Dourado. It was an unacceptable moment. We are all hot. Who doesn’t make mistakes? There is that feeling now that we only have that“, he stated.

Missions are given in a specific way. It’s no use staying here sailing over that, it wasn’t for Dourado to beat, it was Bruno. But here nobody takes shit home and it’s settled and that’s it“, he completed.

Henrique Dourado spoke about the controversy with Bruno Rodrigues and avoided creating friction on Cruzeiro!

“Circumstance of the game. Everyone is wanting to help Cruzeiro. I think that, above all, the institution is bigger than any athlete. There, at the moment, we ended up having this conversation, this debate. Everyone wants to help. It’s football. Let’s go to the locker room, let’s talk, so that he can think about the next game and think about the next game”said the Ceifador in an interview for Globo while still on the pitch.
