The Argentine admitted that Galo had difficulties and praised the Paraná team, which defended well and had chances to tie the game.
“A very important victory because of the need we had to win, but also because of the difficulty we had in the game, with a team that was very backward like Coritiba, which closed the defensive spaces very well, with many people. So, the The team had difficulty in. As for the transition, they took advantage of it, because we did not attack as we should, we had to vary something to protect ourselves a little and win the game ”, he said.
Both goals came in the second half. On an individual play and a perfect shot, Hyoran opened the scoring. In an attempt at pure opportunism, forward Eduardo Sasha scored second.
With the victory, Galo assumed – provisionally – the vice leader, with 49 points, four less than So Paulo. In third place, Flamengo has 48. Both teams play this Saturday. Coritiba is already in the penultimate position, with 21 points.
Sampaoli said he wants an even more offensive team by 2021.
“We set out to win the last game of the year, a very difficult year for the Atlantic, because of how it started. We arrived three months after the squad was formed, another idea. So, in this process, with young players, I needed that victory to trick me into attacking and playing more. When we started, we had 31 attacks per game. Now we are going down. We have to have the dream of being a team that attacks more and more. “
