Bareiro's apology: «Sorry to my team-mates and the fans» | OneFootball

Adam Bareiro faced the media after Boca’s defeat to Cruzeiro and used his social media to apologize for the sending-off that put the team at a disadvantage. The Paraguayan striker, who was shown a red card at the end of the first half after two highly controversial bookings, made a heartfelt Instagram post taking responsibility for the situation.

“Just an apology to my teammates and the Boca fans. Whether they were the referee’s mistakes or not, it’s on me to control what I do,” the forward wrote. Bareiro, who had been one of Claudio Úbeda’s regular starters with six goals in 13 matches, did not hide his frustration: “Today I surely messed up and now I have to eat shit, but I’m going to work on my mistakes”.

The Paraguayan’s absence was decisive for the Xeneize, who had to play the entire second half with ten men in Belo Horizonte and ended up losing their 14-match unbeaten run right at the end of the game. Despite the squad’s anger with Esteban Ostojich’s refereeing, the player chose to focus his self-criticism on his own behavior.
