This Sunday (13), Corinthians lost to Fluminense 2-1 and saw the club’s situation become even more complicated in the season. With the results of the tenth round of the Brazilian Championship completed, the team knows that the weekend ends in the relegation zone of the Brazilian Championship.
São Paulo’s runner-up has only 9 points in 9 games played (one game less than most competitors), Corinthians is in 15th place. This is the same score as Botafogo, defeated by Vasco on Sunday, closing the weekend in 17th position, within the group of the last four, in Z4.
In the opinion of coach Coelho, who led the team after the resignation of Tiago Nunes, the moment is to regain confidence and believe in the strength of the group after the season.
“A training session, I have been watching from the outside, on television, as a fan, a situation that I urgently need, I told them, is to regain our confidence. This is a fact. Redeem it with work. Conversation, association. There is no point in losing. That is what we are going to do, with the commission and the directive. We are going to rescue this one way or another. That we can go against Bahia with more confidence. Confidence is the first situation we want to bring, “said Coelho.
The moment of the club was more convulsed after the dismissal of the then coach Tiago Nunes, who began work at the beginning of the year, but did not yield the expected results: elimination in Libertadores before the group stage, weak start of the Paulista Championship and few points in the Brasileirão.
The uncertainty over who will be the next commander also disrupts the team’s reform plans, which are still trying to find their identity on and off the field.
Timão has only two victories in the entire championship, being them against Coritiba and Goiás, teams that are at the bottom of the table and must fight to stay in Serie A or pinch a place in the South American.
It should be remembered that the team temporarily led by Coelho has one game less. That’s because the game against Atlético Goianiense, on August 9, was postponed and will be played later.
The team’s objective now is to score points in the main national tournament and the opportunity will be against Bahia, on the 16th, playing at home.
