Doriva Bueno: the details of her controversial hiring at Sporting Cristal | REPORT

The announcement generated endless criticism and questions. Sporting Cristal made official to Doriva Good as the new coach of the women’s team with a publication on their official networks that did not go down well with the fans. The Brazilian was until recently the coach of the Peruvian national team but was dismissed from his post after being involved in a case that many have classified as scandalous and unethical.

“Welcome, ‘teacher’ Doriva. Doriva Bueno Pacheco will be in charge of leading our team for the entire 2022 season. We wish him every success in this new stage.”, was the message that accompanied the photo of the coach.

But what happened so that the national women’s football environment criticizes the signing of the coach? It all started last September. Prior to a trip by the national team to Ecuador for a couple of friendlies against the northern team, the soccer players Myriam Tristan Y Adriana Lúcar They decided to leave the concentration without explaining exactly why. The fact went viral, the DT came out to say that the annoyance of both players, regular starters, was due to the clothing and numbering on the shirts.

However, some time later, after the return from Ecuador, the Peruvian Football Federation announced the decision to dismiss Bueno from his position. “The Peruvian Football Federation (FPF) reports that the investigation into the events that occurred in the Peruvian women’s team on September 14, 2021, and which are public knowledge, has concluded, without determining a sanctioning process for those investigated”, detailed the entity.

The Brazilian did not remain silent and, in an interview on the program ‘Negrini lo saber’ on Radio Ovación, confessed to having a relationship with the soccer player and selected player María José López. he explained.

The background, added to the fact that María José is one of the referents of Sporting Cristal, has generated a lot of speculation about the arrival of Doriva to the Rimense entity.

The reasons

DT Trade was able to learn about the different reasons why Sporting Cristal sought out Doriva Bueno to lead the women’s soccer project that was previously in charge of Olienka Salinas, a three-time champion with the celestial institution.

“Olienka Salinas told us about her work situation regarding the availability of time. She couldn’t dedicate herself one hundred percent to the women’s team because of the other commitments she has and we suggested that she take charge of another structural team because we know what kind of professional and person she is. The proposal was to continue training the sub 18 and that they could adapt their schedule. We are looking forward to that situation knowing that she has other options on the table as well.”, told us Juan José Luque, sports director of Cristal.

The Salinas situation made the club look for another option. And there appeared Doriva Bueno. For the institution, as they told us from the intern, the investigation of the Peruvian Football Federation did not attract any indication or proof that the coach had committed a fault. In fact, ‘Maca’ López has been summoned before, during and after the stage as coach of the Brazilian. He was a starter at the Lima 2019 Pan American Games. On this point, if he considers that the DT has committed a foul, Luque answered us the following:

The former Spanish soccer player also referred to how the club will handle the sentimental relationship between Bueno and López. “The operation and the way of evaluating is the same that we use with the entire structure. First of all, we have an internal code of conduct and a disciplinary regime on which we base ourselves in order to guarantee a work context and a context of coexistence that allows us to base ourselves on mutual respect, on trust in people, and from there all the staff have to be trained and educated regarding these values”.

With the position that the technician did not commit any fault, despite the fact that his image is tarnished, Cristal decided to hire him. Partly also because of his good resume. Doriva began training in the lower divisions of Corinthians, then played two U-20 World Cups with the Brazilian team and came to Peru to form a project that sought to make the women’s team competitive, trying to provide comfort to the players, who in most cases did not receive money in the calls and had to train at night after working for eight hours. or more.

With the cards on the table, knowing the background in depth, Sporting Cristal seeks to follow in the footsteps of Lima Alliance Y academic without the same budget and for that he has decided that Doriva Bueno take command. A controversial decision for the fans, but quite clear and well thought out in the institution.
