Internacional defender, Robert Renan wasted his shot against Juventude, which cost him qualification for the final of the Campeonato Gaúcho
Robert Renanof Internationalbroke his silence after missing a decisive penalty against Youth. The defender hit with a dig in the semi-finals of the Gaucho Championship and did not generate any concerns for the rival goalkeeper, who defended calmly. Thus, Colorado was eliminated and Jaconero advanced to the state championship.
“It won’t be with an apology that my mistake will be erased. But the first step is to apologize to the Colorado fans, the group of players, the technical committee and the employees. I promise to maintain my professionalism on a daily basis to have the chance to recover with everyone”began Robert Renan on his social networks.
I’m very sad about what happened and that I let the club down. At no point did I want to be disrespectful or make a joke. The only thing I can do at this moment is to work hard, train harder and harder and try to regain the affection of all the fans, who have always treated me in the best way since the first day I was here”.
After the elimination, the player suffered racist attacks from Inter fans. The club from Rio Grande do Sul promptly took a stand: “Sport Club Internacional vehemently repudiates the racist attacks against athlete Robert Renan. Clube do Povo does not tolerate any type of discrimination. No result on the field justifies, and will never justify, attacks of this criminal nature.”
