Official report points to who took Neymar out, Coritiba mocks online
The official report from Santos versus Coritiba this Sunday (17) "nailed down" who was responsible for the most controversial (and viral) moment of the match.
According to the document signed by referee Paulo Cesar Zanovelli da Silva, the instruction for Neymar to come off came from former defensive midfielder César Sampaio, who is Peixe’s assistant coach.
He is said to have contributed to the confusion later "made official" by the fourth official.
Check out the account included in the document released by the CBF below.
"In the 20th minute, the fourth official of this match, Mr. Bruno Mota Correia, was verbally informed by the assistant coach, Mr. Carlos César Sampaio Campos, that there would be a substitution and that this substitution would be the withdrawal of number 10 from Santos Futebol Clube, Mr. Neymar da Silva Santos Junior, who was already off the field of play receiving medical attention. After being informed, the fourth official of this match, with the board in hand, turned toward the assistant coach of Santos Futebol Clube and again asked for confirmation of the substitution of the player he had been told about, and received verbal and gestural confirmation from him, while he filled out the paper alongside the match delegate, Mr. Guilherme Zangari da Rocha, who witnessed and heard the facts reported here."
Neymar gives his version after FORCED substitution and vents: 'Serious mistake'
Paulo Cesar Zanovelli added by highlighting the action taken by César Sampaio after Robinho Jr. came on.
Neymar was receiving treatment off the side of the pitch and tried to return, but was prevented from doing so precisely because he had been substituted.
"After the substitution was completed, the same assistant coach handed over the substitution slip with a different number from the one he had previously informed and confirmed. Immediately afterward, the fourth official was approached by Santos' coaching staff saying the number was wrong, a fact that differs from what had been verbally and gesturally communicated before the board was raised by Mr. Carlos César Sampaio Campos."
At a press conference, coach Cuca mentioned César Sampaio when speaking about the case.
Coritiba doesn't hold back
The Neymar factor + the emphatic win over Santos became "ammo" for Coxa’s social media.
A phrase that became a meme when talking about Neymar’s possible call-up made an appearance.
Breno Lopes, Santos’ tormentor in the 2020 Libertadores final, was "called up" to the World Cup.
And there was more "taunting" aimed at Neymar.
Coxa got the better of Peixe shortly after being eliminated at Couto Pereira by Neymar & Co. in the Copa do Brasil.
