Rogério Ceni commented on São Paulo’s victory over Palmeiras in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil and praised the players
On Thursday night, the 23rd, the Sao Paulo received the palm trees in the first game of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil and came out with a 1-0 victory. After giving a surprising comeback to Verdão himself on Monday, 20, for the Brasileirão, Soberano seems to have learned from his mistakes and won the Choque-Rei.
After the triumph, Rogerio Ceni gave a press conference and put his foot down about his way of working. Despite being heavily criticized after the defeat in the Brazilian Championship, the coach kept the same base for this second confrontation of the week and achieved a positive result for the continuation of the competition.
CHANNEL – ATHLETISTIC
“The biggest lesson I learned was to believe in my convictions, with second-class players being the same as today. In 194 minutes we were ahead, in just one minute Palmeiras was ahead. Believe in convictions and work. In addition to the other game for this one, it was the possibility that we had to understand when Dudu changes sides and how we have to score, and that’s what we worked on“, commented.
In addition, the coach praised the players a lot and highlighted that he preserved the athletes who played on Monday due to physical exhaustion. After so much criticism directed at the players, Ceni went straight to commenting that it’s better to believe in your own convictions than to take so much into account what people write or say and even revealed that he is the best name for the club’s technical command.
“We preserve the players who played on Monday and I want to emphasize their merit for their dedication, delivery. Same game. Maybe I don’t have to believe what people write or say anymore. Is to believe in convictions […] You beat me up a lot, but I was made to be beaten that way. I make choices. The club can make the choice to take me out. But working with work at the club and who I know? Sorry, you won’t find anyone who knows as much and works as hard“, said.
That date! ❤️🤍🖤#VamosSãoPaulo 🇾🇪 pic.twitter.com/nAQvnu8MR2
