The coach admits he has had frequent conversations with management and says he has already been “sacked” by people outside the club
Criticized by some fans despite taking Corinthians to the semifinals South American Cup and after securing a goalless draw with Palmeiras this Sunday at the Neo Química Arena, coach Vanderlei Luxembourg he denied facing internal pressure and assured that he had complete confidence in the board.
“At no time has this pressure been internal. I have been talking to Duilio, Alessandro for four months, having continuous meetings. At no time have I been questioned or asked how I was. The pressure is external. We never sat down and talked.” or stay. Outside they already kicked me out, they said the environment is bad, there are several leaked information. Internally I never felt distrust. Zero” said the coach.
Luxemburgo also made an analysis of the classic. Although he admitted that Palmeiras had more playing volume, he said the result is normal. “I have to compliment the players, because today we came in as underdogs. They were talking about defeat. They forgot it’s Corinthians. It’s like a derby. If you consider it, a draw between Palmeiras and Corinthians is a very normal thing.” . It was a classic draw. Corinthians entered already losing, but Corinthians don’t enter losing, they enter always believing that victory will work,” he said.
As Luxemburgo said, Corinthians and Palmeiras played a balanced game, with great chances for each team. For the alvinegro team, Maycon came out face to face with Weverton, but he stopped in defense of the opposing goalkeeper. At the end of the game, Cássio saved Corinthians by catching Breno Lopes’ point-blank shot.
Finally, Luxemburgo explained the absence of Renato Augusto, who had also trained with the group last Saturday, but was preserved from the classic. “In the post match (against Estudiantes) we had information from the wear department, after an internal analysis and with the player, we decided that there was an overload and we couldn’t expose him to an injury. We have 17 more matches in the Brazilian championship I decided that it is collegiate, with the information of the post-match analysis” he said.
With 26 points Corinthians are still fat compared to the relegation zone. The alvinegro team will only be back on the field on September 14 (Thursday), at 7 pm, against Fortaleza, at the Castelão Arena.
