Even after a run of three games without winning this season, coach Tite was the target of many protests at the stadium.
During the press conference, the coach spoke about the game:
" All this context that you mentioned, he didn't play a good game and he has to take over, especially in the creative and offensive process. He was poor in his finishing ability, in his creative ability and in the width of the field. which was below. Work, there is no other way. When you come from two defeats and with all the expectations that come, the group feels that a return of athletes will give you options. with Nico and Varela. Cebola loses all that power, and the trust relationship is lost a little" - said Tite.
The red-and-black coach also had to return to a theme from the past game. . That's because after the defeat to Botafogo, Tite talked about taking a step back. He explained once again his intention with this.
"A step back is to work on fundamentals. I made an analogy to Jordan and it's from his book. When confidence doesn't come, confidence creativity in reprogramming movements comes. It's about being simple and objective. We still wanted to, we didn't achieve that. The challenge is now Bragantino" - commented the coach.
It's worth remembering that Tite didn't count on Arrascaeta and Pulgar, injured, and left goalkeeper Rossi, Luiz Araújo and Ayrton Lucas on the bench. In the second half, he promoted the return of Gabigol, who acted thanks to a suspension effect in relation to the punishment for attempting to cheat the anti-doping test imposed by the STJD - he had not played since February 25th and had been suspended for 36 days.
