From the mixed zone, even with the pulse of the match upon him, Cometti left a reflection that transcends football and refers to the claim by the Brazilian National Team for the warm-ups. “Obviously "They have more voice, more weight and their word is worth much more because they are references of this sport," said the defender in reference to the historical players of the Brazilian National Team, who over the years have denounced inequalities and demanded decent conditions.
On this occasion, the specific claim had to do with a basic but essential aspect: the place where the teams had to warm up before the meetings.
“Thanks to them raising their voices today we were able to do part of the warm-up on the court and for us that is fundamental. Thanks to them we were also able to enjoy that,” Cometti closed, recognizing the progress made.
Her words resonate in a context in which female players continue to fight for basic rights that, in men's football, are fully guaranteed. What Cometti said not only reflects gratitude towards the pioneers of the movement, but also the continuity of a collective struggle that is still far from over.
