Santos lost 4-2 to Chapecoense this Thursday, in the first round of the Brazilian Championship. Midfielder João Schmidt left the Arena Condá field furious. The captain of the team lamented the result and highlighted the importance of the team from São Paulo getting on a good streak soon.
“Unacceptable. There are no words to explain. We created many chances, turned the game around, had chances to score more, and conceded three goals. It can't happen. It's unacceptable. There's no other word,” he said to Premiere.
“Last year is gone, but we have to look to win. We haven't been playing well, today we even played well, but we didn't win. We need to have a winning streak as soon as possible to avoid a repeat of last year,” he added.
With the result, the Alvinegro Praiano extends its winless streak this season. Now it's five consecutive matches without a win (four of these matches are in the Paulista Championship). In the Brasileirão, the club remains scoreless, in 19th place.
