Renato Gaúcho said that “Grêmio only missed the goal” against Goiás, for the 25th round of the Brazilian Championship. The zero score in Goiânia prevented the Rio Grande do Sul team from getting on the table, but did not veto the coach to praise the performance on the field or affirm that the dispute for the Brasileirão title is still possible on the sides of the Arena do Grêmio.
Grêmio has 41 points and can still be overtaken by Fluminense and Santos in the complement of the round.
“We created a lot, we had chances. There was a bit of a lack of calm, to hit the last pass. I told them that we had to work on the opponent’s psychology. We missed the goal. But one point is good, there is no easy game and more in games where you face teams that are down there with a rope around their neck, ”said Renato Gaúcho.
In the field, Grêmio really gave the cards. He had better scores in all attributes of the game, but always stopped in front of the area. Or, it came from the sides and failed to hit the target. Despite the failure, the campaign is still considered good.
“There is so much to happen in the Brazilian Championship … Not only with Grêmio, but with all the teams. Nine points are three games and there is much to happen,” Portaluppi commented at the same press conference.
Grêmio returns to the pitch against Santos on Wednesday for the second leg of the Copa Libertadores quarterfinals. The Rio Grande do Sul team tied the first game 1 to 1, in Porto Alegre.
