My team-mates would want us to play that match.
42歲老將荷西華尼度,已為查比高恩斯把關299次,只差1次他便完成第300大關。他本來可以在上週對彭美拉斯的聯賽上陣,但他希望將告別戰留給主場球迷,所以未有出戰,亦未有隨隊前往哥倫比亞。
原先他會在今個星期實現球會第300戰,當完成壯舉之後,他便會完美告別這支已效力10年、由丁組見證到甲組的球會。但在悲劇發生後,他決定就此掛靴,將紀錄永遠留到299。
巴甲聯賽冠軍已塵埃落定,只餘下最後一輪比賽,巴西足總已宣布國內聯賽順延,但強調最後一場一定要進行,查比高恩斯在最後一場將主場迎戰明尼路。
查比高恩斯另一位的副總裁當時向足總表示:We haven't got 11 players.
足總如是回答:You have the junior team, complete the team with the juniors. The result does not matter. We have to have a great ceremony, the kind that Chapeco and Chapecoense deserve.
因此,未有隨隊的查比高恩斯成員和青年軍,將會合力完成本季最後一場比賽,至於本來打算退役的荷西華尼度表示,或會為球隊上陣最後一場,全因他相信戰友希望他會上陣。
"My team-mates would want us to play that match."
300 大關?那刻,對華尼度已不再重要。
"I just don't know how I could stand a full stadium with people calling the name of the players that died. We will have to try, I think. But that is going to be hard."
