Luís Castro, coach of Botafogo, commented on the moment he lives in the Rio de Janeiro club and talked about possibilities of dismissal from the team
After the rout against the palm trees at Allianz Park, Luís Castro was very direct in its position in relation to the current moment of the Botafogo. With many difficulties in the match, Glorioso was dominated away from home and ended up losing by 4 to 0 and got complicated in the classification table of the Brazilian Championship.
Commenting on the defeat, the Portuguese coach admitted Alviverde’s superiority in the match. Alleging many difficulties presented by Verdão during the match, Luís recognized that his team did not know how to adapt to the match, which made it difficult to stop the team from São Paulo.

“Palmeiras was better than us in everything. Attacking, defending and on set pieces was always better throughout the game. It was always a more intense team and won many more duels than us. It always created difficulties. We were very poorly positioned especially in the first half. We were never balanced and we suffer from it. And this was fundamentally motivated by the intensity with which Palmeiras gave the game and our non-adaptation to what the game was“, analyzed.
After the defeat, Botafogo stagnated in the table and is now in 15th place with one point ahead of cuiabá, which is the first team in the relegation zone. Thinking about the worst possible scenario, the coach commented on the possibility of dismissal from the red-black team and was very calm if he needs to leave the club.
“There is no question about what our work is and what we should do with our team. But that’s the case in terms of results. But if the results didn’t happen, as they aren’t happening, (dismissal) is what awaits me. In football there are no different ways of looking at institutions. If I don’t win, I have to leave and someone else enters in my place. There is no middle ground in this, there is nothing hidden. The worst thing in life is not being clear about what we do every day“, highlighted the coach.
However, even knowing the possibility of dismissal, the coach was clear when presenting the reality of the club. The coach revealed that when things are going the wrong way, he would be the first to leave, but he asked for calm for the expectations related to the club this season.
End of the game.

“Today we can’t win duels, play forward… the day the team isn’t worthy, I’ll be the first to leave. Until today, in world football, there is no team that has been champion from Serie B to Serie A. Expectations are directly linked to frustrations. We have to be aware of the path of the Botafogo project“, explained the coach.
