May 12th News Recently, Thiago Silva apologized on social media, saying that he expressed his inappropriate expression and apologized to his teammates. After Fruminense lost to Atletico 2-3, Silva had said that the team lacked "some character and fighting spirit."

Silva clarified on social media: "I want to correct and make it clear that no one on this team lacks personality. I should use the word 'personality' to describe our performance in difficult times. I did not express it well and apologized to my teammates for it."

In Sunday's match, Fruminense was reversed with the lead and eventually lost 2-3 to Atletico Minero, further away from the top four in the Brazilian league. After the game, captain Thiago Silva expressed his dissatisfaction, saying: "We didn't play a great game, but it wasn't too bad. But we could have done better."

"I think we need to look at ourselves more and see where something went wrong. I feel we need more character and fighting spirit. It's hard to say, there are things we should discuss internally, not publicly. We are going through a tough time now, poor performance, and the results are not ideal. Today we were leading for a while, but then lost the game, which is really difficult."

Fruminense is currently in a time of controversy, and it's hard to convince both losing and winning, and they will return to home to the United Spanish United (Copa America) on Wednesday. Silva called on the team to rebound quickly and expressed dissatisfaction with frequent concedings: "It's time to reflect on yourself in the mirror and find out where to improve."

"There was an important game waiting for us on Wednesday, and then we were going to work hard to get points. It's tough now, and we will do our best to get back to shape. I haven't played much in a month, and today I'm pretty good on artificial turf, but it's not enough to help the team win."

He continued: "We have to reduce these mistakes because we're conceding goals in every game. A team that wants to compete for the championship must concede as few goals as possible. I've never seen a champion who often concedes the ball. Team. It's not an excuse, nor accusing anyone. I think it's a whole problem that requires us to evaluate together. Although we equalized the score at the last minute, we were scored by our opponents in the last minute. We'll take a break and discuss internally how to turn the situation around. "

Finally, Silva did not blame the loss on the first-time artificial turf, but he once again criticized the use of artificial turf in Brazilian football: "Today's artificial turf has not affected the game because they are not used to it, but it's not the football we want to see. It's not for Atletico Minero or any team with such a venue, but for the ornamentality of the entire football sport."
