“We are resuming the path of the victories, which is very important. We needed it a lot after returning from the World Cup, becoming this key,” said Uruguayan after Monday’s activities. “We did not get the victory against Missol at home, but forward. We were able to reverse this result to be able to win yesterday (Sunday) and now it is to forget this result and think about the next match in Rio de Janeiro, to look for three more points,” he followed, already focusing on Fluminense.



For Piquerez, the tactic to be used against the flu, a rival who did not win after the US competition must be the same applied against Atletico-Mg, with a strong marking and few spaces.

“It was something we were looking for and I think the team played very well. Hulk’s two goals were kicked punishment.” The most important thing was that we resumed the victory path against a great team and now let’s go to Rio to look for three more points. “

With 196 games played by Palmeiras, Piquerez became a leader of Abel Ferreira on the pitch. “Thanks to God, there are almost 200 games, five seasons here. So I already know a little of the dynamics here in Brazil, in this club that is very large,” he said. “It must be calm and maintain the focus, continue to work, because it is not very repenting or congratulating a result. It is always to continue working and I am happy to have helped the team to win with the participations in the goals.”
