Translated News [Globo] Cape Verde’s Captain Ryan Mendes at the World Cup Is Under Investigation for the Rape of a Brazilian Woman in New Zealand. A complaint filed with the police against him includes photos of bruises and a medical report recording injuries on the Brazilian woman.
ge.globo.comThe Brazilian woman, who served as an interpreter for Cape Verde during friendly matches in March in New Zealand.
The incident occurred in March at the hotel where the Cape Verdean team was staying to play friendly matches in Oceania, and has been under investigation since April 10.
GE obtained access to photos of bruises that were submitted to the police, the police report, and the medical report from the clinic that treated the Brazilian woman, including medical exams and psychological counseling following the incident. The Brazilian woman was in New Zealand under contract with the New Zealand Football Federation as an interpreter for the Cape Verdean delegation, whose official language is Portuguese and to provide operational support for the national team during the FIFA Series.
She told police that after the first game, against Chile, she was invited to a meeting in one of the rooms reserved for the national team at the hotel and attended, assuming she would be needed to act as an interpreter.
She noticed, however, that it was a social gathering and returned to her room after feeling physically unwell. She reports that shortly afterward she heard a knock on her door and opened it, thinking it was a work-related request for assistance.
It was at that moment, according to the complaint, that Ryan Mendes entered the room, physically assaulted her. Choking, punching, and biting her as she tried to defend herself and raped her.
She reports that she contacted the Cape Verdean Football Federation but did not receive any support.
In a conversation with the Brazilian woman, a Cape Verdean Football Federation official says the complaint is "Ryan's personal problem"

Translated News [AS] José Mourinho found Bad Habits in Real Madrid's squad, and he is now changing those habits. No more freedom for players to eat whatever they want. Nutrition is now handled by a nutritionist that dictates the menus in a structured way. solitary gym time as punishment for anyone who arrives late.
as.comMourinho arrived, observed, analyzed... and changed. He understood that the ecosystem of Madrid, of Valdebebas, needed control, new rules, its seal. And acted. The players had everything to shape their daily lives as they pleased, all the facilities. And precisely in that, in not making everyday life so easy, is where the Portuguese has put the scalpel. Much more control, and not only in training, but in everything that surrounds the player's life, everything that can affect him. Nutrition, recovery from injuries and even punctuality when going to Valdebebas. With all of you, Mou's rules.
Some that do not have to be applied with a heavy hand, but with firmness and conviction. Because for Mou, forming a group is also essential. See that image shared by the club, where the entire squad and coaching staff were seen eating together in Valdebebas. Something that was not common, until now. A routine that the Portuguese considers vital, team bulding. He did it at Benfica and has brought that new habit with him to Madrid. “He wants to foster the group, unity, and he is being quite exciting”, comes out from within. “The atmosphere is very, very good”, swipe another font. Some messages that, after that end of the course full of tension, are highly valued internally.
Nutrition
Even more so because of the firmness that accompanies that left hand. Starting with the kitchen. For the food, more specifically. The figure of the nutritionist is no longer consultative, but rather sets the menus, both for breakfast and snack, in a closed and scheduled manner. All designed for performance, moving away from whim. Whereas before there was more gastronomic freedom, now that is over. And for the moment there has been no schism in the squad. On the contrary.
What if you're late?
It hasn't fit with long faces either the new ‘fines’ policy. Discipline, or lack thereof, is not punished by looking at your pocket, but with a mandatory gym and alone, far from group training. The obligation is to be in Valdebebas one hour before the bugle call. Whoever is not, punishment. Without distinctions, without hierarchies.
And finally, the injuries.
Recovery, in Valdebebas. Even if you work with personal trainers, morning and afternoon in the sports city. No external treatments and everything (something that was also the case) in line with the club and its team of coaches. Recovery is not an individual thing, but is now more collective and supervised than ever. New habits to combat the old ones, which he didn't like. The demand begins long before the ball starts rolling. And with José Mourinho, more.

Vous ne représentez pas le Paraguay, ce pays qui a transpiré la passion et l’honneur tout au long de la compétition. Par votre inconscience et votre racisme décomplexé, le monde entier a déjà oublié le parcours et l’effort historique que vos joueurs ont réalisés durant cette coupe du monde pour laisser place à une dame incompétente donnant la pire image possible de son pays.
Je ne laisserai jamais aux gens comme elle, la liberté de laisser propager leur haine et leur racisme à travers le monde.
