Roger Guedes breaks silence after defeat

Roger Guedesof Corinthianswas candid about the team’s loss to Flamengo at the Brasileirão 2023. Timão got the worst of it, 1-0, in stoppage time in the match at Maracanã, with a single goal scored by Leo Pereira. Although Alvinegro returned home with a negative result, the number 10 valued the evolution of the squad.

“Once again, the victory did not come, but today I leave a little happier for feeling that we played. We were not playing, I talked about it inside, to try to attack the opponent, and today it happened. Trying to avoid those goals, even more so at the end of the game, against a favorite opponent”highlighted Guedes after the duel.

“We could have gone out with a draw, we know we have to win. We have a decision on Wednesday, lift your head, keep your head up to get out of this situation”. O Corinthians returns to the field on the 24th, against Argentine Juniorsfor the Liberators cup. To guarantee a place in the qualifiers, without depending on the opponents in their group, Timão must triumph in the three games that remain.

In addition, Guedes defended the change of posture on the lawn as essential to ward off the bad phase at Parque São Jorge. “Attitude, that was the charge we made in the locker room, regardless of whether it’s going to be wrong behind, in the middle, not just marking the opponent, Today we did very well in the game, but the victory didn’t come”spiked.

“If we play like this and impose ourselves away from home, we will get the three points and win the matches”. It is worth pointing out that Corinthians still haven’t won the field since the arrival of Vanderlei Luxemburgo in technical command: after the 2-0 against rowing (confrontation that had Cuca as coach) were five defeats and two draws.
