Renato explains reservations in the victory and rebounds criticism: “Grêmio will never leave the Brazilian” | Guild

Not even Pepê, one of the few starters who traveled to Curitiba, started the game and only entered the second half. The conservation was maximum and it was worth it. The reason for coach Renato is that there is no way to repeat the same team playing every three days.

– The moment I put my players on the field of play, I fully trust them. Another demonstration, a difficult game, we left behind, a totally different team. It is the strength of our group. Every three days there is no way to put the same team. Because then we started to lose important players. If we have a good and large group, it is good to shoot. If you are in the Grêmio group it is because you have conditions – commented the coach.

Until the ball rolled, the fans complained on social media that Grêmio would abandon the Brasileirão dispute to save so many players. Once again, Renato responded to the criticism.

– Are all the teams the Brazilian’s starter, except Atlético-MG, which plays once a week? Because all the clubs are saving. Grêmio will never leave the Brazilian. I am crazy to beat the Brazilian. I’m not crazy about putting on the same gear every three days. The fan can be calm, we are in three competitions and we entered them to win. If you’re going to win, we don’t know. Sometimes I change a lot in the Brazilian, precisely because there are 38 rounds. In crowns, it’s a coup de grace – he explained.

The victory against Atlético left Tricolor with 24 points, in ninth place in the Brasileirão table. With rested players, Grêmio will now focus on the Brazil Cup. The Tricolor will face Juventude next Thursday, in the Arena, for the first leg of the round of 16.
