Juninho lashes Zagallo


Thursday, May 7, 1998

Juninho aimed an angry swipe at coach Mario Zagallo yesterday after being left out of Brazil's World Cup squad.

The 25 year-old Atletico Madrid midfielder, back in action last weekend after three months on the sidelines with a broken leg, claims he is fully fit and believes he has been omitted for 'tactical' reasons.

He said: 'Anyone who says differently is lying as I have totally recovered. I did everything I could to be ready to play in the World Cup.

'There are certain players who do not maintain good discipline yet bag all the prizes. I am going to have to reflect whether it's worth having that discipline or not.'
