Ownership

As Cruzeiro is more than just its football department, it is not correct to say that it is owned by Ronaldo. Its operations in other sports (particularly volleyball, as the team is one of the most successful in the World) is not controlled by Ronaldo, nor does he control the any other aspect of the club besides the SAF company that was created to manage its football operations. Nevertheless, football is the main sport the club is known for, so I didn't erase the information of Ronaldo as owner, but rather stated that he owns 90% of the footballing operations, through the SAF created recently. Any suggestions to better convey this information? S1944 (talk) 23:38, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

Rivalry with Atlético

Can someone please rewrite that section so as not to sound all warm and fuzzy? It's full of platitudes and pretty much no information. "There's a rivalry between two big football teams, sports fans delighted. News at eleven."
