At Corinthians, Vagner Mancini faces Atlético-GO 27 days after a sudden exit | corinthians

Since then, a lot has happened at the beginning of the coach’s journey. Among the main ones: a win suffered by Flamengo, an impeccable victory against the international leader and the elimination of the Copa do Brasil against América-MG.

Mancini reviews Atlético-GO with three wins, two losses and a draw, the last one that culminated in the elimination of the tie. The performance of the coach so far is 61.1%, taking into account the 18 possible points in six games with 11 of them won.

The coach was hired in a quick negotiation. Corinthians did not open formal talks with any other name for the technical command and closed the deal in less than three days. Mancini traveled from Goiânia to São Paulo by car to introduce himself to Timão.

During this period, Mancini also received the hiring of defender Jemerson and forward Jonathan Cafu. Both had the approval of the technician to reinforce the squad. Cafu, although he has published a photo in CT Joaquim Grava, it has not yet been made official.

Mancini’s main challenge at the moment is getting Corinthians to maintain a good standard of performance, wavering less from game to game and from time to time within the same game. The coach wants an aggressive, vertical and organized team mainly in defense.
