It was a hectic Friday for Corinthians, featuring reaction to their Copa do Brasil exit, a goalkeeper’s failed medical and fresh opinion on Memphis Depay.
According to Meu Timao, Fernando Diniz defended his side’s approach after elimination, saying he had anticipated an opponent set up to defend. He also criticised the refereeing.
Goalkeeper João Ricardo, now at Fortaleza, discussed how close he came to joining the club from Parque São Jorge. He said he failed medical tests and did not understand the decision, adding he returned to the northeastern side with no problems to play.
Wesley Sneijder weighed in on the situation involving Memphis Depay and Corinthians. He praised the club’s No 10, while underlining the forward’s recent physical issues.
He is viewed as one of the Netherlands’ great idols with the national team.
