Atlético-MG visited Palmeiras this Sunday, 5th, and Hulk complained a lot about some of the arbitration decisions in the draw for the Brasileirão
O Atlético-MG went to São Paulo to face the palm trees in a match valid for the ninth round of the Brazilian Championship and the draw was 0-0. Despite the difficulties faced, both teams played a great game, but missed the opportunity to reach the leadership of the competition.
After the tie, Hulk gave an interview at the edge of the field and talked about the confrontation against the São Paulo team. Exalting the football played by both teams, the Galo striker revealed that Allianz Parque’s synthetic turf got in the way, but he valued the draw against a strong team and direct opponent in the fight for the title.

“We wanted to win. Lawn that we are not used to. The Palmeiras team plays here twice a week, they are used to it. Even in the last shot I went to touch and the ball runs a lot. But important not to lose, because it is a direct confrontation too. The teams defended very well. Palmeiras put three defenders, I don’t know if it was a strategy to close more“, commented.
Taking advantage of the space to speak, at the same time that Hulk showed that he liked the busy match, he did not fail to question some decisions of the Brazilian referee in general. After being taken to the STJD for an alleged aggression in the match against Coritiba, the attacker complained about the decision to Wilton Pereira Sampaio in a bid with Murilo, defender of Palmeiras.
“Nice game to play, very catchy. Both teams came not to lose. The most important. It was a very disputed and very loyal game. I even discussed it with our advisor. Funny that I ended up in the STJD for a bid I tried to play against Coritiba, but there was a bid here in which Murilo kicks me without the ball. I head to Ademir and take a shot from behind and the VAR did not interfere. You have to lift your head, have a lot of patience and play football“, he complained.
