Atletico MG goalkeeper .. Iverson does not see anything wrong with his own net, but he assumes a “defensible ball” | Athlete- mg

In an exciting final between Atlético MG and América-MG at Independência, Everson surprised Benítez’s shot and conceded the goal after taking several steps to the side and blocking his positioning. After the match, he explained the move, taking responsibility, but did not classify the move as a failure.

– I’m not running away from my responsibility. We worked to put two on the barrier, and there was only one left. Benitez finished. I didn’t see the starting point of the ball, it left my direction and came back. I saw him go to the right corner, climb into the head of one of our players, and then it had this effect – explained the goalkeeper.

After the goal at the end of the first half, Iverson still saw Benítez score again and goalkeeper Matheus Caviccioli saved his penalty. And the goalkeeper celebrated the victory in the last shot of the match with Hulk.

Iverson did not work several times in the match. America reached several times and had a good attacking volume, but the two most dangerous strikes went into the goal. On another shot of a clearer chance from America, with Aloísio, the ball went straight.

Atlético now has the advantage of losing on goal difference to lift the trophy. The rematch is next Sunday at 4:30 pm (Brasilia time). Before that, Gallo enters the field on Thursday, against Libertad, for Libertadores, at 19 (from Brasília).
