The Vasco da Gama player was consoled by his teammates after the match ended in a goalless draw against Gremio.
Carlos Palacios was close to giving Vasco da Gama the victory over Gremio on Round 10 of the Brazilian Serie B Championship. The former Unión Española player had the chance at his feet to give his team the three points, but the rival keeper and the stick ended up distressing the player. .
At minute 90+3′, Palacios receives a pass from Gabriel Pec in the area, pulls out a defender with a good hold and fires a powerful shot that slightly deflects goalkeeper Brenno before the ball hits the horizontal.
Once the game was over, Palacios was lifted off the ground by team captain Anderson Conceição and little by little other teammates approached to show their support for the Chilean. .
Carlos Palacios also received support from his coach, Zé Ricardo, as evidenced by the post-match press conference. In the Instance, the DT pointed out that the full-back “is a player who everyone knows is more introverted. He gave the maximum possible, not only as an athlete, but also as a person. Now that his family has arrived in Rio de Janeiro, he is more comfortable, he is a player who, if he feels good about himself, has a lot of qualities to go further. ”.
He added that in the game “he showed the quality he has in a shot that ended up on the post. Earlier he had a chance that Brenno hit him really well. For me, if he chose to go one way or the other, he had a very clear scoring opportunity, but it was a shot and that was it. Brenno touches the ball and it’s to his credit, a good goalkeeper that Gremio has. But Palacios deserved the goal “, he assured.
Finally, he indicated thatI spoke with him, told him he would raise his head and other opportunities would arise . Who knows if the most important goal is ahead. He said he would have liked to score as it would have given the team the win. But if the fans were cheering at the end, imagine with the win, it would be a bigger party. They assess that we are doing everything possible,” concluded Zé Ricardo.
