Gustavo Gómez slams pitch after Palmeiras loss: 'Synthetic is better'

In a game with an unplayable field, Palmeiras lost to Bahia at Arena Fonte Nova. The winning goal for the Bahia team was scored by Ademir. During the match, Verdão lost Lucas Evangelista, with pain in the back of his thigh, and Piquerez, with pain in the inner part of his knee.

After the match, Gustavo Gómez commented on the field and lamented the defeat of Palmeiras.

Speak, Gómez!

It was a balanced game. We did what we could because it is very difficult to play on a field like this. We prefer to play on a synthetic field than on a field like this. I'm sure the Bahia players also prefer to play on a better field, but it is what it is.

And now?

Palmeiras returns to the field next Wednesday (1st), at 7 PM (Brasília time) against Vasco, at Allianz Parque. The game is valid for the Brazilian Championship.
