Vasco players silent on fans at training ground, some uneasy | OneFootball

The presence of the organized supporters group Força Jovem at the Moacyr Barbosa Training Center on Tuesday continues to resonate internally at Vasco. According to information released by journalist Leonardo Baran, no player complained “in a loud voice” about the fans entering, although some athletes were not pleased with the situation. According to Baran, there was no open opposition within the squad—just isolated discomfort among some players.

The Vasco board authorized the group’s entry into the training center, in what was considered a peaceful visit. There was no commotion, threats, or confrontations, and the organized supporters spoke with the squad, demanding commitment and attitude in light of the team’s critical phase this season. The team has suffered five consecutive defeats in the Brasileirão and is at real risk of entering the final stretch in a direct battle against relegation.

Baran highlighted that Força Jovem “said what any fan would like to say,” reinforcing their support for the team even during this negative period. The journalist also praised the board for the decision to open the doors and allow contact in a controlled manner. According to him, after the conversation, the supporters reiterated that their goal was to encourage and remind the players that support in the stands has never been lacking.

The episode took place at a time when parts of the squad are showing dissatisfaction with the training load under Fernando Diniz, which drew criticism from the commentator. Baran emphasized that starting players have not complained and that any discomfort comes from players who have been on the bench.
