Veiga, meia-atacante do Palmeiras (Cesar Greco/Palmeiras)
Raphael Veiga acabou sendo o grande “vilão” no vice-campeonato paulista do Palmeiras. Assim como nas semifinais, o camisa 23 não quis fugir da responsabilidade em uma cobrança de pênalti decisiva, mas o desfecho foi diferente em relação ao duelo com o São Paulo. Apesar da falha determinante que influenciou o título do Corinthians, o jogador multicampeão pelo clube deixou claro que jamais iria “pipocar” em campo.
“Estou muito triste, muito chateado, sei que faz parte do futebol, mas ninguém quer viver isso. Mas é aquilo, sempre vou sair de cabeça erguida, aparecer para falar.”, disse Veiga.
“Podem falar o que quiser de mim, mas nunca que em momentos de decisão eu fui omisso. Errei, assumo a responsabilidade. Bola para frente. Vou seguir batendo pênalti, vou acertar, errar. A vida é assim, futebol é assim.”, acrescentou.
Veiga exalta competência de Hugo Souza
Acertando o canto cobrança, Hugo Souza teve agilidade para realizar a defesa no chute de Veiga. Por conta disso, o meia do Palmeiras avalia que, além da falha no arremate, o goleiro do Corinthians precisa receber a devida valorização pelo lance.
“Eu, desde pequeno, aprendi a não gostar do Corinthians. Eu mais do que ninguém queria ganhar esse jogo, mais do que ninguém queria fazer o gol, queria ser campeão. Dar mérito para o Hugo que é um grande goleiro, pegou o pênalti.”, afirmou.
Futuro no Palmeiras
Dono de um currículo repleto de conquistas, Raphael Veiga deseja seguir atuando no Palmeiras. Aos 29 anos, o atleta não possui grandes oportunidades de atuar em gigantes da Europa, mas uma saída ainda tem chances de ganhar força ao longo do ano.
“Eu amo o Palmeiras, amo estar aqui. Acho que tive outras oportunidades para sair em outros anos, não deu certo. Quero continuar ganhando títulos. Tem outras coisas para eu conquistar aqui ainda. Minha vontade hoje é ficar, mas vamos ver o que vai acontecer.”, externou.

Brasileiro feminino: Expansão do campeonato nos próximos anos pode impactar qualidade na elite
Em 2027, o futebol feminino estará em destaque no Brasil. Além de sediar a Copa do Mundo, o país terá a primeira edição do Brasileirão A1 com 20 clubes, quatro a mais do que atualmente. O anúncio da expansão do campeonato, feito em janeiro, levanta a dúvida: a infraestrutura e a qualidade técnica dos times vão acompanhar esse crescimento? Nas seis primeiras rodadas da edição em disputa, foram marcados 158 gols, média de 3,3 por partida — no Brasileiro masculino, por exemplo, a média no mesmo período é de 2,3. O número expõe o abismo entre as equipes que brigam pelo título e aquelas que lutam contra o rebaixamento: já são seis jogos, 10% do total, com vitórias por quatro ou mais gols de diferença. Mas a frequência de goleadas vem diminuindo: caiu de 22,5% em 2019 para 12,5% em […]
In winning time, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was at his best in Thunder’s sweep of Grizzlies
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Before breaking through in the Oklahoma City Thunder’s series-clinching 117-115 Game 4 win over the Memphis Grizzlies, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had scored 73 points on 68 shots in the first three contests. His 35 percent shooting ranked last among 10 Thunder players who had appeared in every game — not exactly a stat anyone would have predicted entering the series.AdvertisementBut in winning time Saturday, the Thunder star and MVP finalist was at his best.Gilgeous-Alexander scored a game-high 38 points to lead the Thunder to a series sweep and a second-round date with the winner between the LA Clippers and Denver Nuggets. Whichever team emerges will have to contend with a well-rested Thunder squad whose best player might have just hit his stride.It’s not that Gilgeous-Alexander, or anyone with the Thunder, ever worried about his uncharacteristic inefficiency.

Grizzlies must consider Ja Morant’s future and everything else after sweep
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — During his six-year tenure as general manager of the Memphis Grizzlies, Zach Kleiman has usually gone out of his way to avoid the spotlight.Despite being the architect of a team that’s won at least 48 games in three of the last four seasons, few NBA fans could identify his face in a lineup. He’s likely happy with that.AdvertisementHe went against his usual tendencies earlier this season when he released a public statement that made waves throughout the league. Though his intent was to quiet the noise in Memphis, Kleiman may have unknowingly given an early glimpse into the unease behind the scenes that led to the Grizzlies’ shocking late-season collapse and yet another early exit from the playoffs.All of this culminated in Memphis falling short again in a 117-115 loss in Game 4 against the Oklahoma City […]
