Em destaque, as declarações sobre os sucessivos cartões de Hulk, do Atlético-MG, e uma defesa enfática de Yuri Alberto, atacante do Corinthians, após um pênalti desperdiçado de cavadinha.
Frequência de Cartões de Hulk e a ‘Marca’ com a Arbitragem
Desde sua chegada ao Galo, o atacante Hulk acumulou impressionantes 66 cartões amarelos, sendo 13 só nesta temporada, com dez deles por reclamações. Para Rivaldo, esse histórico é uma combinação do estilo de liderança e da imagem que o camisa 7 construiu em campo.
“Acho que todo mundo precisa entender que esse é o estilo do Hulk,” analisou o pentacampeão. “Ele luta pelo time e dá a vida dentro de campo e é muito esforçado em ganhar sempre. E por ser capitão do time durante muito tempo, sente mais autoridade de falar com o árbitro. E esse estilo mais enérgico de sempre querer falar e lutar pelo time no campo e isso leva a esses cartões.”
No entanto, o ídolo do futebol reconhece que a frequência dessas advertências acaba pesando contra o atacante na visão dos juízes.
“Já vi muitos cartões que achei que ele não merecia, mas, como ele acaba levando cartão o tempo todo, ele fica marcado pelos juízes com um cara que reclama demais e que pode atrapalhar o trabalho do árbitro,” afirmou Rivaldo.
O embaixador da Betfair sugeriu ainda que o fato de Hulk ter expressado o desejo de não ser mais capitão pode, eventualmente, ajudar. “Se ele não for mais capitão, como disse que não gostaria mais de ser. Talvez isso melhore um pouco para ele, porque o capitão sempre vai ser o que fala mais com os juízes,” concluiu.
Rivaldo defende a ‘cavadinha’ e a personalidade de Yuri Alberto
Em outro momento de destaque na última rodada, Yuri Alberto foi duramente criticado pela torcida corintiana após desperdiçar um pênalti de cavadinha na derrota do Corinthians por 2 a 1 para o Flamengo, na Neo Química Arena. O goleiro Rossi defendeu com tranquilidade, e a ousadia do atacante não perdoada pela Fiel. Apesar disso, Yuri ainda marcou o gol de honra na partida.
Rivaldo saiu em defesa do jovem atacante, enaltecendo a coragem necessária para a execução.
“Quase sempre os goleiros escolhem um lado e por isso os jogadores tentam essa cavadinha,” explicou. “Acho que o Yuri entendeu o momento do jogo e arriscou, mas claro que ele não imaginou que o goleiro iria ficar parado. E, na minha opinião, ele pegou mal na bola e isso ajudou para que o pênalti fosse defendido.”
O pentacampeão comparou a jogada a seus próprios riscos e destacou que a cavadinha é um recurso que exige coragem e personalidade.
“Fiz isso no La Coruña e, mesmo não pegando tão bem na bola, acabou dando certo. É um risco que você tem, mas só um jogador com personalidade vai arriscar,” disse. Para Rivaldo, a crítica é amplificada pela má fase do clube. “Quando você erra, precisa assumir a responsabilidade pela cobrança… O problema é que a fase do Corinthians também não está boa, então as críticas vão chegar. E ele precisa ter personalidade para dar a volta por cima, assim como fez ao marcar um gol no jogo,” finalizou, ressaltando o gol de honra que o camisa 9 ainda conseguiu marcar.

WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert addresses player criticism, CBA, officiating, job security
LAS VEGAS — After a week embroiled in criticism by players, WNBA commissioner Cathy Englebert used her annual address before Game 1 of the finals to vow to repair trust with the league’s players, create a new multi-stakeholder task force to evaluate WNBA officiating, and to reiterate that she believes she is well-positioned to take the league into the future.AdvertisementEngelbert also refuted some of the blistering accusations made by Minnesota Lynx star Napheesa Collier earlier this week, specifically denying telling Collier in a private conversation last winter that Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark “should be grateful” for her lucrative endorsement deals because of the WNBA’s platforms.“Obviously, I did not make those comments,” Engelbert said. “There’s a lot of inaccuracies reported out there, and I certainly did not say that.”Engelbert said she and Collier have exchanged text messages and have plans […]
Pressure’s on Cubs, Brewers with NLCS berth at stake. But who’s feeling it more?
MILWAUKEE — In late July, Milwaukee Brewers mainstay Christian Yelich had a sly grin on his face when a couple of Chicago reporters asked about the rivalry with the Cubs.“It kind of feels like we’re just playing with house money,” he said that night. “They’re supposed to win the division. They’re supposed to have high expectations. … So if they don’t win the division, I’m sure it’ll be pretty disappointing.”AdvertisementThe teams were tied, or close to it, when he said it. This was before the trade deadline and before the Brewers reeled off 14 straight wins, sending the Cubs from a virtual tie atop the NL Central to a nine-game deficit in the span of a fortnight.The Cubs, of course, didn’t win the division. They finished five games behind the Brewers. While this playoff berth is the Cubs’ first in […]
Dodger Details: Lingering questions ahead of NLDS against the Phillies
PHILADELPHIA — The Los Angeles Dodgers are poised to remove some of the guardrails surrounding Shohei Ohtani’s usage as a pitcher. The time to rehab from his second major elbow surgery is over.“I just think he’s a normal starting pitcher now,” president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman said. “Kind of eased him along. Just a normal starting pitcher.”AdvertisementA normal starting pitcher who, before taking the mound for the first time in the postseason in Game 1 on Saturday night, will step into the batter’s box as the Dodgers’ leadoff hitter against the Philadelphia Phillies’ Cristopher Sánchez. It’s an unprecedented moment in the modern history of the sport, and it’s finally happening. Ohtani wanted to prepare himself during Friday night’s workout, taking the tarp-covered mound and pantomiming his delivery to get the proper visual.“I’m sure I’ll be nervous at times,” Ohtani […]
