“I saw players surrounding him (Andrey Santos) Like a good Brazilian, I went to protect a friend. A lot of people were there and it ended up with me getting pushed. These things happen. They don’t know how to lose. Now it’s time to celebrate.”
“I don’t need to say anything about them because it’s normal,” Pedro said after the match. “Everyone wants to win the game, and in the end, I think they lose their head. But this is football. This has happened. Now we need to enjoy because we won the tournament.”
