Ancelottinho deserves half full glass and the benefit of optimism


Botafogo did not win because the opposing goalkeeper became Gordon Banks and recovered an old maximum that hinders the most traditional




Against Botafogo, the opposing goalkeeper becomes Gordon Banks. Countless players of the position of the smaller teams have used this metaphysical working hours to grow in the face of the more traditional attack. Archangel, from Vitória, wanted to go to this list on Wednesday (16), at the Nilton Santos stadium, for the 14th round of this edition of the Brazilian championship. With two titles, he took a 2-0 just for glorious before 25 minutes, in the suburb. He then captured at close range, the headquarters of Savarino and Pantaleão, both inside the area, in conclusions that came out of shots. First, by the way, he had already closed the signal for the erah Arthur. When the Custodian Black black did not reach or hesitated, a defender seemed to take almost the line in a Cabral finish. This agony remained until the final whistle and caused the point reset. The frustrating tie, in front of a limited rival, in a round where I stumbled the main competitors of the current champion (Palmeiras, Flamengo and Red Bull Bragantino).

Play the volume and hypertension

Nobody can complain, however, the lack of volume of the coach of the coach Davide Ancelotti, the debutant of the night. Freitas continues with a standing GPS every time it triggers one of the attacks. Cabral performed the sublime pin and did not leave the carpet like a hero because the radius prevented him during the second stage. Savarino returned to play a little more than half a period after the head with Renato Paiva. Cuiabano entered as arrow on the left side and also stopped in the crossbar. Botafogo controlled the game in front of an opponent who had not even speculated and came to the mill from the inside to go out with a point in his luggage in his fight against relegation. In Z4, the visitor, by the way, used some tricks of catimba and wax. The reality of the glorious is another and forces the 11 players who wear the solitary star to always be the protagonists of the meetings in the suburb.

Profusion properties, Ancelottinho’s initial brand

Despite a physical and technical drop in most of the second half, in addition to the exaggeration of the ball secretion balls, Botafogo had a display in the words of their coach two days earlier in the press room of the same Nilton Santos stadium. Aggressive, vertical, courage and high number of opportunities created in 90 minutes. He missed the whim and rolled some preciousness in the last third, curiously, the same stigmas as the beginning of the era of Renato Paiva. The difference is that, with the Portuguese predecessor, fans cried one or two lost opportunities. In the official debut of Ancelottinho, there were at least six clear and some who did not arrive due to lack of luck. The Italian commander therefore deserves the half full glass and the benefit of undoubtedly, but of optimism.

Reinforcements now!

Davide Ancelotti arrived in Botafogo yesterday. He commanded some training and heard more than he said. Although he tried to learn the Portuguese, a very commendable attitude, by the way, is still cheap in the answers, typical of those who have just started their career and still feels a little discomfort in facing journalists. Normal! The new coach is not 100% integrated into the black and white universe. He needs time and the season, with the forgiveness of the word game, takes fire. Saf must then attack the deficiencies of the cast and provide him with reinforcements as soon as possible: a containment steering wheel instead of Gregore, a center forward to rest Cabral and one right all over the world.
