Jorge SampaoliFlamengo’s coach, spoke out this Sunday about the attack by his physical trainer, Pablo Fernández, on striker Pedro during the ‘Mengao’ 2-1 victory over Atlético Mineiro by the Brasileirao.

The Brazilian media revealed that Pedro did not like being on the substitute bench and, when Luiz Araujo and Everton entered the field on 65 minutes, he sat on the bench despite having one substitute available for Sampaoli.

Due to the above, Fernández was upset that the battering ram did not continue warming up and punched Pedro in the face, causing injuries to his lip and teeth. They both spent the night at the police station.

Sampaoli used his social networks to comment on the fact. “I couldn’t sleep thinking about how to help Pedro and Pablo. I know you two had a horrible night. And that, whatever happens, we have an obligation to take care of ourselves. To be better and put Flamengo above all else”, he wrote.

I don’t believe in violence as a solution. That gets us nowhere. Throughout my career I watched so many fights and I was always left with one. Vacuum sensation. What happened yesterday made me very sad,” she added on Instagram.

In addition, the former DT of La Roja, La U and O’Higgins pointed out that “we overshadowed an impressive victory with an internal dispute whose reasons exist, but at this moment they do not matter.”

“I have faith in the word, which is a way of having faith in the human being. Because violence separates us and conversation unites us. It is a transformation that will take time. It will not be from one day to the next, ”he added.

To finish, the man from Casilda pointed out that “I am the driver of this team. It hurts a lot when two work colleagues fight. The coaches are not only dedicated to tactics and the preparation of footballers. Above all, we work to form groups“.
