More critical voices join in, Tchitcho speaks out against the call
Nova Sintra, August 27, 2024 (Bravanews) — The recent call-up to the Brava futsal team has generated new criticism in the sports community. Junior Gomes, widely known as Tchitcho, expressed his discontent with the list of players chosen to represent the island. Tchitcho's main complaint refers to the absence of Edson, one of the highlights and top scorers in the last Inter-Island Championship for residents.
In a statement sent to Bravanews, Tchitcho highlighted the lack of understanding regarding the selectors' decision. "It is difficult to understand how Edson, one of the best players and scorers of the last competition, is not on the list. His absence is a big mistake and disregards the merit and talent he demonstrated on the field," he said.
Edson, known for his exceptional skills and his ability to make decisions at crucial moments, was one of the central figures in the tournament, contributing significantly to his team's performance. The decision not to include him in the squad raises questions about the criteria used by those responsible for selecting the players.
The local body for the sport has not yet made an official statement about the criticism, but it is expected that there will be a response or at least a clarification about the selection criteria adopted. The expectation is that this episode will raise a wider debate about transparency and fairness in the process of choosing athletes for the Brava team.
The next few days will be crucial to see how those responsible will deal with the controversy and whether there will be any review or adjustment in the choices to ensure that the best talents are represented in the Brava selection.
