After another draw in the Brasileirão, Santos coach, Marcelo Fernandes, celebrated the point won in the classic
The objective of getting rid of relegation, which would be unprecedented in its history, is getting closer and closer for the Santos. After scoring again in a draw against São Paulothe coach Marcelo Fernandes He spoke at a press conference and celebrated the point won, but expressed concern about the physical situation of his players.
“We don’t work with projection, we work game by game. We won an important point, only Vasco won in the round, so the point was important. The team felt the physical burden a lot. São Paulo played better, we have to admit. We don’t fit in, when we do, we suffer again physically. We were worn out, and that helped São Paulo a little. I say again, a very well-trained team. Santos doesn’t make projections, there’s no magic number, and today we gained an important point here”, commented the commander.
João Paulo, for a change, was Santos’ highlight. Nonato very well too.
Jean Lucas was the worst. Messias, Lucas Braga and Kevyson really bad too.

Afterwards, Marcelo spoke about the team’s planning for the last games, mainly regarding the physical side of some of the athletes who felt something in the previous weeks. Given this, the break for Data Fifa was celebrated by the coach, who will have more time to recover them.
“The team needed the stop, we already planned all of that. We held Dodô in two games, maybe he could come to this game, but as the defenders didn’t take the cards, we held him. Basso has a delicate injury, he’s progressed very well, I’m not saying he’ll be back in the next game, but maybe in the final stretch. An important point, we want to fill the gas tank for these last four games”, he added.
Despite the competition being paused during FIFA Data, the teams with fewer games will enter the field so that everyone has the same number of matches. Without this being the case with Santos, the team will only have a commitment again on the 26th, away from home, against Botafogo.
