I arrived two months ago and I believe that in other games the criteria are very different and it gives the feeling that they want the championship to remain 'alive' until the end. I've seen many moves in other games with completely absurd criteria. And now we see what happened in our last two games – said Bruno Lage. + Have you ever thought about becoming a football coach? Take part in our Masterclass with Felipe Ximenes and discover the possibilities - We are here without hiding, on the contrary, I wanted to come and make this opening. VAR has come to the rescue here and elsewhere in the world. But unfortunately, there are some errors. It's not just in our games. Each error in its own way contributed to maintaining balance in the championship. Many dubious things, along with inexplicable plays, benefited and harmed the teams – added the Botafogo coach. Botafogo's football director, André Mazzuco, was also present at the press conference and, on behalf of the club, expressed his dissatisfaction with the cancellation of Diego Costa's goal. The director stated that the referee made a “capital and unacceptable error”, confirming that Glorioso will fight until the end of the championship and will not accept what he considers “deplorable”. - Once again we see a capital and unacceptable error in arbitration. They tried to explain it to us, but they didn't convince us. We had a game against Flamengo, in which an own goal by Marlon (Freitas) was not disallowed, despite having been scored by Bruno Henrique, who was offside. We spoke with HBF and today it is a new criterion. They canceled a cool goal for us. This is unacceptable – said Mazzuco. - Botafogo will fight until the end of the championship, and I'm here out of respect for the coaching staff and the players because we're tired of it. It's sad because clubs complain when something happens, they go to the HBF and we see that nothing happens. We will not accept it, we will complain and do whatever is necessary despite not seeing any results from the complaints. I don't justify any defeat. This is about disrespecting the professionals who participate in the Brazilian championship. What we saw today was regrettable. Here are Botafogo's words - he concluded. + Bruno Lage criticized on the web after Botafogo's defeat to Atlético-MG: 'Apathetic' The defeat made Botafogo suffer their fourth defeat in the competition, the second in a row, remain with 52 points and see the difference to Palmeiras drop to seven.
