The display of skill of the Venezuelan midfielder, who had already made the national team suffer, drives the players of the Rio de Janeiro team and their supporters crazy.
There is no longer any doubt that Yeferson Soteldo is technically gifted. Without going any further, the Selection can give a reference. The performance of the Santos midfielder in the match between Venezuela and La Roja was decisive: he scored one goal and participated in the creation of the other two. Chile returned with a face full of worry and bitterness. Largely because of him.
Let the boasting of the midfielder who, in Creole football, defended Huachipato and the University of Chile, drive you crazy, there is no more room for discussion. . The midfielder knows that with his plays he can dislodge his opponents and possibly gain an extra advantage. He also did it during his matches with Santos. A Chilean serves as an example: during the duel against Vasco da Gama, Gary Medel fell into the trap and ended up being sent off during the clash against Santos, the Caribbean team.
Flamengo’s turn
Now it was Flamengo’s turn. Charged on the left of the attack, Soteldo masterfully avoided Bruno Henrique, who had gone to mark him with a free kick as a short corner. . The play cost the defender the second warning for an almost imperceptible grab and, as a result, go to the locker room early, while the match was in the sixth minute of added time .
The situation has gotten worse. The supporters of the rubro-preto team pulled out all the stops. They threw projectiles onto the playing field and one of them hit the face of the expelled player. The situation could have been worse, because Bruno Henrique was a few centimeters from the match judge, who in a reflex turned his head to avoid a possible blow. .
The actions then take place between complaints to the referee and recriminations from the players to their own supporters. Soteldo, at least on record, was never heard from again. The Venezuelan had already done his job. The match ended shortly after and with the best news for his team: victory.
La Fla, in which the Chilean Erick Pulgar was not present, was doubly troubled: Tite’s team added its second consecutive defeat and finished sixth in the standings, nine points behind leader Botafogo. Santos is 15th, but they left more than satisfied.
