Opinion – Juca Kfouri: Minimizing Palmeiras’ rout over Bolivians is a contradiction

by

Minimizing Palmeiras’ thrashing of Bolivia’s Independiente Petrolero in Libertadores is to fall into contradiction.

To this day, we use the formidable routs of Santos do Rei Pelé as what the best should do over the worst.

Exactly as the two-time continental champion did after a false 1-1 first half.

In the interval before the seven goals, two wonderful goals from Raphael Veiga and four redeemers from Rafael Navarro, a friend from Palmeiras in the column, sentenced by zap: “Proof that we don’t have a squad!”.

Strangely, it was silent after the end of the massacre by 8 to 1…

At a time when the also Bolivian Always Ready is scary, undoing such a loud score sounds paradoxical.

Because América took two points from Atlético Mineiro, and it wasn’t just three points because it was stolen.
