Cruzeiro has decided to end coach Tite’s tenure after the 3-3 draw against Vasco at Mineirão. Even with a one-man advantage, the team was unable to secure a win and remains without a victory in the Brazilian Championship.

The management made the decision still in the locker room, after yet another match marked by fluctuations and loss of control during decisive moments.

Tite’s record at Cruzeiro

Tite led Cruzeiro in 17 matches. During this period, he recorded eight wins, three draws, and six losses, with a 49% success rate.

The team scored 25 goals and conceded 22. They created 43 big chances, allowed 19, and averaged 11.1 shots to score a goal and 7.1 shots to concede. The average ball possession was 58.6%, according to Sofascore data.

The weight of the Brasileirão

The dismissal comes despite the Campeonato Mineiro title won at the start of the season, but the performance in the Brasileirão — with three draws and three losses — weighed directly against the coach’s continuity. The team is in 19th place, with just three points.

Cruzeiro returns to the field on Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time) to face Athletico-PR, for the seventh round of the Brazilian Championship, at Arena da Baixada.
