Vasco’s goal at the start of the game against Atlético-MG, this Sunday, in Mineirão, could have hindered the team’s ideas for the match. However, as in other games in which he came out from behind, the Rooster showed quick reaction power and, even in the first half, turned and defined the victory of defeat, 4 to 1.

– It was a very important moment for the team on the emotional side, trying to defend an attack idea. The players recovered very quickly after Vasco’s goal, which never affected us.
“We have not given up on the idea of attacking. So I am happy to see that this group of young people like to attack.”
As against Corinthians and Atlético-GO, Atlético needed to reverse the score against Vasco, who went ahead even before 10 minutes. According to the coach, the best way to react after leaving behind is to attack and that is the idea that the players bought and have been defending.
– This is the idea. Basically, they beat us up and we reacted really fast. It is important to remain calm and constantly defend the most valid argument of the team, which is the attack.
Absolute leader of the Brazilian Championship, with 27 points – five more ahead of Internacional – Atlético-MG will return to the field next Wednesday, against Fortaleza, in Castelão, at 9:30 p.m. (from Brasilia). For the game, El Gallo will have three determined absences: Júnior Alonso, Savarino and Alan Franco, all called up for their teams for the 2020 World Cup Qualifiers.
