Enderson Moreira can’t resist the pressure due to poor results and is fired from Cruzeiro | cruise

According to the ge, the decision to leave Enderson Moreira was made in a meeting at the Cruzeiro headquarters, with the presence of the coach himself and the Cruzeiro’s high dome. The penalty for dismissal provided for in the contract is R $ 350 thousand.

Rogério Micale, coach of the U-20 team, will take over the team on an interim basis, already in charge of work on Tuesday afternoon. He will probably be on the bench against Vitória on Friday in Mineirão. The idea of ​​the board is to elect the new coach later this week.

Enderson was hired by Cruzeiro on March 18, three days after the departure of Adilson Batista, dismissed after the loss to Coimbra, in the Mineiro Championship. Enderson leaves the mining club in a similar fashion, with a difficult backstage. He led the team in 12 games, with six wins, three draws and three losses.

With the work that the fans will only be able to see from July 26, when football was resumed after the strike due to the new coronavirus pandemic, Enderson started well, obtaining six consecutive victories (three for the Mineiro Championship – URT, Caldense and Patrocinense – and three from Serie B – Botafogo / SP, Guarani and Figueirense).

However, the fact that he failed to lead the team to the semifinals (although the club already knew the great possibility of this happening) and also the sequence of six poor results in recent weeks weighed against the coach.

With Enderson, for Serie B, Cruzeiro lost to Chapecoense (1 to 0, in Mineirão), tied with Confiança (1 to 1, in Aracaju), lost the classic against América-MG (2 to 1, in Mineirão)), was defeated in the duel with Brasil de Pelotas (1-0, in the South) and tied this Monday’s match with CRB. In addition, a new equality, also 1 to 1 with the same CRB, in Maceió, marked the elimination of the Minas Gerais team in the Copa do Brasil, completing the sequence of matches without winning.

In addition to the last bad results, there is also the criticized soccer of Cruzeiro. Without creativity, making defensive mistakes, and with some underperforming players, Enderson came under increasing criticism behind the scenes. The trigger was the resignation of the biggest sponsor of Cruzeiro and the strong man behind the club, businessman Pedro Lourenço, after the loss with a poor performance against América-MG.
