Coach Abel Ferreira showed enthusiasm and gratitude for the opportunity to compete in the club world championships with Palmeiras. During an interview with New Jersey, Commander Alviverde said that the team would make any effort to be present in the tournament. “If we had to walk or swim, we would come,” said Abel, underlining the desire to participate in a competition considered special by everyone in the club.
In fact, the coach highlighted the size of the dispute, remembering that the championship brings together the best teams in the world. As explained, the tournament is a space in which only teams that have won relevant titles may be present. “This is not a competition, it is a world championship, where the best 32 in the world are,” he said.
Palmeiras, in turn, ensured the place thanks to the victory of the last edition of Libertadores. Abel compared the South American tournament to the main European competition, mentioning that Libertadores represents South American in the same way as the Champions League means for Europeans. Therefore, the coach has strengthened the value of the club’s recent results.
While the preparation for the clash against Porto progress, Abel Ferreira also highlighted the emotional and psychological aspect of athletes. The technician revealed that he wants to see the players with a light mind, the loose body and the warm heart at the time of his debut. According to him, these conditions are essential for the team to play at the best football on the field.
Although the excitement is evident, Abel also warned the challenges that the group could face. One of the attention points, as revealed, is the condition of the meadow of the Metlife Stadium, the debut game phase. The concern was born after the recognition of the field, carried out under heavy rain, which made it impossible for a more detailed analysis of the quality of the floor.
However, the coach assured that the team is prepared to face any adversity. “We must remember that we came to play football. Whatever it is, playing where to play, it is possible to win,” said Abel, showing confidence in the cast of Alviverde. The declaration strengthens the competitive spirit that the coach tries to keep among the players.
In addition to the technical problem, Abel made a point of remembering the support received by Palmeiras fans. As he pointed out, the fans were fundamental in decisive times and, according to him, the presence of the Palmeiress in New York has already shown the size of the support that the team will have on the stands. The coach said the players will hear this energy on the day of the game.
Finally, Abel Ferreira reiterated that Palmeiras arrives at the club world championship to challenge the best teams on the planet. The ambition to compete and seek good results is evident in the words of the commander, who sees in the tournament the opportunity to write another important chapter in the recent history of the club.
