One day Carlos Alberto Parreira, the coach who led the Brazilian team to the four-time world championship, consecrated the phrase “the goal is just a detail”.
In fairness, he didn’t want to downplay the goal, but he was referring to the fact that sometimes a team has great performance and can’t translate it into goals.
Out of the context of his reasoning, the sentence became a symbol of an awkward posture.
Let’s accept that it wasn’t the mark left by Parreira in his career, but let’s examine what happens nowadays in our football.
Let’s take the last rounds of some of the major championships around the world and compare them.
Last weekend the Bundesliga had 30 goals in their nine games, the same number of Premier League goals in ten games.
Ligue 1 has seen 29 goals in ten wins.
The Brazilian Championship had 15 goals in the same ten…
Chelsea, leaders of the Premier League, scored 26 goals in ten games, Bayern Munich 38 also in ten games for Alemão, and PSG 26, in 12 awards, for the French.
Atlético Mineiro scored 44 goals in 28 games.
Note the rare reader and rare reader that the rounds of the three foreign tournaments average around three goals per game and that their leaders average at least two goals, with the exception of the Bavarians who exceed, with almost four.
Galo does not reach the two, he has 12 goals to go.
Do the coaches who work in the country have the notion that, in addition to detail, the goal is the joy of football?
That by denying the fans the ball’s orgasm in the net they reduce the pleasure and magic of the game?
That the undeniably important grace and art of defense cannot trump the art and grace of attack?
That playing for a ball, that knowing how to suffer, are valid attitudes for one game or another, for certain circumstances, but which should not be the trademark of any coach in the entertainment industry called sport, in this case, football?
That goalkeepers were indeed invented to defend, hence their exclusive prerogative of catching the ball with their hands, but that having them do wax betrays the spectacle?
Will it be so hard to convince yourself, and to convince the players, that the show can’t stop?
Teachers, give back to Brazil the joy of goals, of dribbling, of one against one, of daring.
We want more Michael, more Pikachu, more Raphinha, more Vinicius Junior, Bruno Henrique, Antony, and let them dare, go on top.
We are the land of Mané, Pelé, Ronaldinhos, Romário.
No, don’t give me the bullshit that the Brazilian Championship is the most balanced on the planet, that before we start we have 12 candidates, because…because…because…it’s just…bullshit!
A maximum of three, although as a rule at least one, if not two, gives up the points run by any of the hearts.
Pathetic var
If the excessive interventionism of the VAR-CBF was not enough, with dubious markings in its offside lines and contradictory interpretations about hand in ball and ball in hand, now it acts to nullify expulsions, as in the case of Kayzer, from Athletico Paraense, who attacked from above and below Léo Pereira, from Flamengo.
Worse than the VAR-CBF only the whistle blower that had done the right thing and turned back.
Literally, it yellowed.
And Kayzer ended up scoring one of the 2-2 goals, to the delight of athletes from Paraná and Minas Gerais.
