“Better to compete in the South American”

During the match broadcast by Globo, Richarlyson analyzed the moment of the Gigante da Colina. With the team in 10th place and far from the G7, the commentator was straightforward about the club's ambitions for 2026.

The statement immediately resonated on social media.

Vasco fans agree with the analysis

The statement was not seen as an offense by a large part of the fans. Surprisingly, many supporters agreed with Richarlyson's analysis. Comments like “He's right” and “He didn't lie” were common.

The view is that the current team would not be able to compete in the Libertadores. “If they go to the Libertadores with this team, they won't get past the group stage and will still hinder the Brazilian Championship!” opined a fan, recalling the difficulty in this year's South American.
