Renato reacts to criticism and reinvents Grêmio to strengthen conviction with undefeated 10th Gre-Nal | Guild

In recent days, the idol has worked behind the scenes and on microphones reaffirming the quality of the cast and minimizing poor results. Pepê’s goal in Beira-Rio brought Grêmio to the 10th Gre-Nal without losing. The longest period is 13 games, between 1999 and 2002. And there are at least two more in the season.

After insistently repeating that there was an exaggeration in the charges, Renato saw the perfect scenario to vent after winning another Gre-Nal. It is good to say that the Grêmio fans came to the Arena to protest, just after a defeat in the Libertadores.

“We love when criticism comes, we see that it comes from the heart, not the head.” They said that Grêmio ran a little and got tired. Demonstrated physical fitness. There is a lack of rapport, which is normal, but the desire, the lust for the group is never lacking. We got to the opponent’s house and we didn’t let him play. This is Grêmio. There are people who have to stop giving their opinion with the International shirt underneath. Be professional – claimed the coach.

There are 23 classics played by Renato Portaluppi as a coach, with nine wins, 11 draws and only three defeats in his three spells under Grêmio – the Gauchão 2011 match, in Rivera, when Roger Machado, then assistant, is not counted. he was the coach on the bench.

The right time to react

Obviously, victory does not mean that all of Grêmio’s problems are solved. But a paved road to repeat and reinforce with conviction. Maybe not on Saturday, against Atlético-MG, due to the need to keep pieces eventually.

– It’s the transition we’re making. It has three or four schemes. Many people have yet to figure it out. Sometimes I have to modify it due to the absence of players. And yet we are reinventing each game. It is important not to be alone on a schedule. It worked against Palmeiras and against Internacional – Renato explained.

Renato found his starting team without important pieces like Maicon and Jean Pyerre. And there is still no profitability forecast for both. The midfield trio, with Lucas Silva inspired, and compaction tied rival Inter, also stumbling over their own problems.

Orejuela, for example, was a positive highlight for Grêmio and fundamental in Pepê’s goal. Cortez again played safe on the left. The choices of both coaches. By repeating strategies from previous classics, Renato showed that he had the formula to beat the biggest rival. Everything ends in the idol.

Grêmio completed 263 passes against his rival’s 420, had the ball 35% of the time and finished nine times against Inter’s 11. Still, he was superior in preventing the Colorados from advancing onto the offensive field. The data is from TV Globo.

It was bunched up and more compacted. So he ran less, which required less physical effort. And then you have to continue to get a good run and remove Tricolor’s distrust in Brasileirão once and for all.
