Luxemburgo commented on the pressure from Corinthians and the absence of Renato Augusto in today’s match.
This Sunday evening (03) Corinthians coach Vanderlei Luxemburgo spoke about the pressure of winning the match against rival Palmeiras to stay in charge of Timão. The coach denies having been pressured by management to win the match.
-All this pressure is external. At no time do we talk about it internally. Alessandro and Duilio are with me every day and we never talk about my departure or my stay.
Luxemburgo also commented on the game, praising the players, saying they don’t see Corinthians able to hold back Abel Ferreira’s Palmeiras, in Itaquera.
-Today I have to congratulate the players. Because we entered as underdogs. Have you seen people wondering how much they would earn. I don’t see any problem in finding a draw with Palmeiras, normal Sao Paulo.. Normal result – Luxemburgo completed.
The Corinthians coach spoke of the absence in today’s match of the team’s star player, Renato Augusto, specifying that he had opted for the decision to preserve the star player for the future.
-It was decided to preserve the player (Renato Augusto) in order not to expose him to overload.
Now Timão will not play for eleven days, due to the FIFA break.
