‘In the last games we went well, we won the final; Today we are defeated and we have to improve it, ‘said the Paraguayan, remembering the recent achievement of the São Paulo title against Palmeiras himself
this Saturday (12), at Arena Barueri, for the third round of the Brazilian Championship, the striker recognized the superiority of the rival in the classic and highlighted the need for evolution of the rest of the competition. “We wanted to go out with victory. In the last games we went well, we won the final. Today (Saturday) we went out defeated and we have to improve it,” said the Paraguayan, remembering the recent achievement of the São Paulo title against Palmeiras himself.
During the field departure, Romero was also seen talking to defender Gustavo Gómez, an opponent in the derby, but a team -mate. “I asked about the injury he had, we couldn’t play with the national team. On the pitch is rival, outside is a companion,” explained the striker, who has a good relationship with Captain Alviverde.
Corinthians failed to repeat the intensity and defensive organization seen in the state decision. The team had difficulty containing the offensive volume of Palmeiras, especially in the first 30 minutes of play, when they conceded both goals. Ramón Díaz’s team had some flashes, but had no strength to react after the break.
With the defeat, Corinthians met their first setback in Brasileirão. The team had tied with Bahia 1-1 at the debut and won Vasco 3-0 in the next round. The next commitment of the alvinegro team will be against Fluminense, on Wednesday, at 7:30 pm, at Neo Chemistry Arena, for the fourth round of Serie A.
