Gabigol celebrates Brazilian Cup title and criticizes Atlético: 'Not a rival'

Scorer of two goals in the first game in the Brazilian Cup final against Atlético, Flamengo striker Gabigol celebrated the competition title this Sunday afternoon (10). Rubro-Negro won the fifth championship of the tournament at Arena MRV, after a 4-1 aggregate score.

And as usual, the attacker took advantage of the moment to provoke. Shortly after the match, in an interview with the broadcaster that holds the broadcasting rights, the number 99 sniped at Atlético.

“We made history once again. We won the title at the home of a great opponent, not a rival. Very happy with the title,” said Gabigol.

But, in the near future, Galo could become a rival for Gabigol. This is because, also after the match, the striker revealed that this was the last decision for Flamengo. The player's destination is close to being Cruzeiro.

Gabriel Barbosa also took the opportunity to criticize former coach Tite, with whom he had few opportunities throughout the year. “Of course it was a troubled year, for me individually. I had a coach who didn't respect me as a player. Horrible period for me. I always tried to improve and show him. I believe that these two goals are the result of a lot of work”, he concluded.
