Neto fumes at Yuri Alberto’s cheeky chip in Flamengo v Corinthians | OneFootball

Corinthians Idol Told the Team’s Current Striker to “Go F*** Yourself” and “Go to Hell”

Striker Yuri Alberto enraged fans of Corinthians this Sunday (28). That’s because the player attempted a chip shot on a penalty kick against Flamengo, which infuriated Corinthians idol Neto.

— You know what that is? Lack of responsibility, thinking you’re better than everyone else, you know? It’s a lack of understanding, it’s ridiculous! The goalkeeper was already down, he misses, he misses, he missed. When you pull some shit like that and lose the game, you should be fined — said Neto, during a broadcast on ‘Rádio Craque Neto’, adding:

— Go f*** yourself, a player who does shit like that! He needs to be called out in the locker room, he needs to be called out by the president, the fans need to boo! I don’t give a damn if it’s Yuri Alberto, I don’t give a damn who it is! Corinthians is much bigger than everyone, Corinthians is bigger than Sócrates, Corinthians is bigger than Rivelino, Corinthians is bigger than everyone — shouted the former player.

Why Did Neto Insult Him?

The Corinthians idol emphasized the insults because he believes that, since Yuri Alberto earns R$ 1.7 million per month, the striker cannot take a penalty with a chip shot. Neto also reminded that the home team had only 29 points in the championship.
