Bruno Gomes rues defensive slip, hitting post in defeat | OneFootball

Internacional was defeated by Palmeiras at Beira-Rio this Thursday, 3-1, in the third round of the Brazilian Championship. Bruno Gomes admitted the defense's mistake in Verdão's second goal and lamented the ball hitting the post in the second half, which would have tied the match at 2-2.

“We were playing a good game. In the second half, we came back well, we conceded a goal that was our mistake. I had a chance that hit the crossbar, if that ball had gone in, we would have been back in the game. We were seeking victory, especially at home, now we have to work because we need to make up for the points we lost here,” he said to Amazon Prime.

The defender also emphasized that Colorado needs to win home games and focused on working to improve.

“There is a lot of the championship ahead, but we have to understand that at home we have to win. As the coach says, at home we have to be stronger. Now it's time to work, keep our heads down, see what we did wrong, and improve,” he added.
