Léo Jardim on clash with Vegetti: "Just part of the game" | OneFootball

Goalkeeper Léo Jardim commented on the disagreement with the striker and top scorer Cruz-Maltino Pablo Vegetti. The disagreement happened at the end of the game against Sport, last Sunday, when Vasco won by 3 to 2. The goalkeeper of the Giant of the Hill left the field visibly irritated.

What Léo Jardim said

“It was a misunderstanding there. A thing of the game. Hot blood. We argued there, but everything is fine”, he said in an interview with the Mundo GV podcast.

“Vegetti is my partner. He's a leader, our captain, a guy who gets along with everyone, who fights for our group. He's a guy I get along super well with since he arrived, he also helped us a lot”, he added.

Difficulties on the field

Despite the victory, the Pernambuco team gave a hard time to the team led by Fernando Diniz, especially in the final stretch of the second half. Sport is currently in last place in the Brasileirão table, with ten points in 20 games.

Next commitment

Vasco is currently in 15th position, with 22 points, distancing itself from the relegation zone. Next Thursday, the team visits Botafogo in the return match of the quarterfinals of the Copa do Brasil, at 9:30 pm (Brasília time). In the first leg, the teams drew 1 to 1.
