Marino Hinestroza escolheu a noite mais improvável para virar personagem do Vasco. Neste sábado (24), em São Januário, pela 32ª rodada, o colombiano marcou duas vezes nos minutos finais e transformou o 3 a 2 sobre o Corinthians na primeira grande resposta dele com a camisa cruz-maltina.

O jogo tinha tudo para terminar em cobrança: o time abriu o placar, levou a virada e caminhava para mais um tropeço em casa. Hinestroza apareceu aos 42 e aos 44 do segundo tempo, dois gols em dois minutos.

Na saída de campo, admitiu que a cobrança que vinha ouvindo era justa. "Eu falei lá atrás que iria trabalhar pra car**** por esse momento. Eu falei muitas vezes e estavam pedindo gol e falava para mim o que faltava, e eu sabia que faltava um pouco mais de força", declarou.

Separou, ainda assim, talento de entrega: disse que nunca duvidou da própria técnica, mas entendeu que o esforço precisava subir de nível. "Eu sei que tenho muito talento, sou um jogador muito talentoso e não era por causa disso, do talento, eu sabia que tinha que me esforçar um pouco mais."

O contexto pesava. O Cruz-Maltino vinha de queda na semi da Copa Sul-Americana para o Boca Juniors, e o ambiente cobrava reação imediata no Brasileirão. "Hoje meu trabalho deu esforço, deu frutos, e acho que isso é um passo muito importante para mim e para o time também no dia de hoje, para essa torcida que merece muito", completou.

O triunfo levou o Cruz-Maltino a 38 pontos e à 13ª posição. O Corinthians, com Seedorf estreando no banco, ficou nos 33 e fechou a rodada em 17º.
