“In football, you can’t just focus on results. You have to focus on work. Of course, we live in an immediate, results-driven culture. What I can say is that Milito’s work is very good. Of the coaches I was able to work with and work with, I place him in the Top 5”, elected Victor.
“We really like Milito. No wonder he has a contract until next year. And I can’t condition it (on Libertadores), because the evaluation of the work is positive, for everything he did, for everything the team performed. We reached two finals in one season, and that’s not for everyone”, he added.
Hired in March, Gabriel Milito made history by taking the team to three finals in the same season.

In contrast to the great stage in the cups, Galo is not having a great time in the league.
The team from Minas Gerais has not won in eight games in Series A, with four defeats and four draws. Still, the board has supported the Argentine coach’s work.

So, like I said, we have conviction in his work. Whether it will work out right or wrong, we don’t know, but we have the conviction that the job is done well,” said Victor.
