The Celeste coach praised the team’s strength after their second win in their last three matches
Cruzeiro beat Vasco 1-0 in São Januário and claimed the three points again playing away from home. This hasn’t happened since May 14, when Raposa beat America in Independência. Celeste’s coach Pepa praised the strength of the group after their victory in Rio de Janeiro.
– We have been very competent away from home. It is not normal to have more points as a visitor. It’s not an excuse, but we’ve already played several home games away from Belo Horizonte, or at Mineirão with a bad shot. In Independência we are 100% in the Brasileirão. That’s no excuse, everyone likes to play on a good field, if they feel identified with where they play. We had a difficult time at home, it’s at home, but we play away. What we are not doing at home, we are doing as a visitor.
STRENGTH OF THE CAST
Pepa also congratulated the performance of players who did not gain many minutes in the games and who had to enter the field in this game. This situation happened to Neris and Kaiki, who started as starters in Celeste’s victory. The Cruzeiro coach recognized the team’s effort to be ready for the ideal moment.
– I am very happy when this happens, not only for Neris, but also for Kaiki himself, Stenio, Robert. It doesn’t keep us awake at night when A or B aren’t playing, who have more minutes, because we trust the whole squad. It’s not possible that everyone has minutes, there’s no way. What we can control is the daily work, we work to get everyone in shape and know our idea of the game.
