Dorival Júnior assesses Boston River-URU clash, eyes season run | OneFootball

After the 2-0 win over Boston River-URU on Tuesday (26) at MorumBIS, in a match valid for the sixth round of the CONMEBOL Sudamericana group stage, head coach Dorival Júnior spoke at a press conference.

“I think that, within the competition, first we needed to secure our qualification, which, together with finishing top of the group, is an important achievement. Today, we basically had a match with the same characteristics as the previous one. We have good moments, good situations happening, patterns of play being repeated, and then, at some point in the match, we lose a bit of that control because we lose possession of the ball. So I think that’s something that has caught our attention. We need to correct it, and we’ll work on it. It was only a good result, nothing more than that. We’re looking for consistency,” the coach said.

The manager analyzed the run of the season and revealed what he expects from the last match before the break for the World Cup, against Remo in Belém (PA), next Sunday (31).

“We have a very tough game at the weekend, a fundamental match for our ambitions. I think we could already have had a somewhat different recovery in the previous matches. As for the lineup, I’ll try to field the best players. I mean physically. And if we have one or two options from those who are in the medical department available for the weekend, that would already be very important. I think it would strengthen us even more and give us a slightly wider range of options,” he concluded.

Tricolor return to the pitch against Remo on Sunday (31), at 8:30 p.m., at Mangueirão, in Belém (PA), for the 18th round of the Brasileirão.
