Abel braga He will leave the Beira-Rio dressing room shortly before 9:30 p.m. on Wednesday and will take a few steps towards the local team’s technical area. There, you will feel at home, even in the strange setting of the stands without fans, for I command Inter in his club to rejoin, against América-MG, for the first match of the Brazil Cup quarterfinals.
++ Abel avoids listing priorities at Inter
Baggage and idolatry are not lacking in the World Cup champion coach and the 2006 Libertadores. But his seventh stage at the club will begin with little of his work and much of what his predecessor, Eduardo Coudet, did.
The technician made sure to make it clear at his press conference. There was much praise for the Argentine and the promise to continue what made Inter the current leader of Brasileirão, qualified in the Copa do Brasil and also in the Libertadores.
He could too. Abel has officially been Inter’s manager (again) for less than 48 hours. And I didn’t even dream of going back to the club three days ago.

His routine last Tuesday and the calendar that awaits him also show that there is no time for breaks. Abel landed in Porto Alegre with the reception of the fans still in the morning. He went straight to the Parque Gigante CT.
A meeting came, after a meeting and then the official presentation, already in the afternoon. Only then did he step onto the grass to give the first training session. Much more in conversation than on the ball.
– The Inter team, I can’t say anything. He is doing very well in all three competitions. The work was very good. It is to enjoy what is done. I won’t have time to train. I’ll talk to the players. Guardiola said he is no longer a soccer coach. He is a manager. Because he plays, recovers and talks. He does not train – quoted the coach.
The coach has already said that the first team should not undergo changes in relation to Coudet’s starting team. He guaranteed that he would study América-MG to outline the party’s strategy.
Abel repeated praise for the previous work, which does not mean that he did not come with different personal ideas to make changes in the team’s mechanics. And the changes start with defense.
“I will not dare to change what has been working. Of course, with my language, with the way I see football. There are some things that I intend to see as the ones I have in strategy.
– Abel Braga
Right away, not for the pieces, because Rodrigo Moledo is out. But the ge found that the coach prepares corrections in the defensive system – especially in the air ball. The sector should be more protected, especially since the aggressive style of the team left it exposed frequently.
Inter already had the best defense among Serie A clubs in 2020. But they have conceded nine goals in the last six games, 1.5 per game. There are 30 goals conceded in 31 games since the return of football, almost one per game.
The coach can also change the team format. Abel tends to arm his teams at 4-3-3 or 4-1-4-1, with subtle changes in position.

In practice, the change is hardly noticeable. Thiago Galhardo would take a step back to act as a midfielder, but with freedom and orientation to enter the area. Obviously: he is Brazil’s top scorer in 2020.
This Wednesday, Abel also begins his path to becoming Inter’s record holder for matches. He led the club in 322 games. The record holder is Teté, with 337.
Inter face América-MG going to the quarterfinals of the Copa do Brasil at 9:30 p.m., in Beira-Rio. The return is scheduled for next Wednesday, at 9:30 p.m., in Independência.
