Lisca explains gesture after América-MG eliminates Corinthians: “The fourth in a row over them” | football

+ News from America-MG

“When you defeat a soccer giant, you are happy. When they are four times in a row, you quadruple that happiness.”

– The fourth time is because in the last four meetings with Corinthians I won two with Ceará, one with America and this was a draw with the flavor of victory. It’s that people pay attention, they say the guy is crazy, and they end up not seeing the work we do. And we are having great success against big teams. That was it, value the work.

Lisca’s excitement is more than justified. He started working at Coelho, manages to fight at the top of the Brasileirão Serie B and is among the eight best teams in the Copa do Brasil (an unprecedented feat for the club). But in fact, in the last four meetings against Timão, the coach even lost a match that culminated in elimination. Three wins, one loss and one draw at Independência considering the last five games.

Still in the locker room after the tie, Lisca criticized coach Vagner Mancini at the wheel with the players, stating that the Corinthians coach did not greet him before and after the match, setting a “negative example.” The images were transmitted by a Coelho leader, via Instagram

At the Brasileirão 2018, in September, Ceará de Lisca beat Corinthians 2-1. In 2019, there was a Copa do Brasil duel, in the third phase, between Lisca, still in Ceará, and Timão. The coach won the return, 1-0, but was eliminated after being beaten 3-1 on the road. Now, in America, another match with Lisca was classified, after a victory in São Paulo and a draw in Belo Horizonte.
