During the meeting, the atmosphere became tense behind the scenes, with individual demands that increased friction between the coaching staff and the squad. According to the publication, one of the staff members even lost their temper, showing dissatisfaction with the team's performance and attitude in recent matches.

Part of the group reportedly showed more focus on the Copa do Brasil than on the Brazilian Championship, which irritated the coaching staff, who demand total commitment on both fronts.
