Dorival Júnior assesses clash with Chapecoense

This Sunday (23), head coach Dorival Júnior gave a press conference after the 1-0 loss to Chapecoense at Arena Condá, in Chapecó (SC), in the 24th round of the Brasileirão.

“All the preparation for the match was done with that in mind, showing that it was an important game for us. It is unacceptable that we did not achieve the result here. It’s not easy, it’s not simple. We have to be aware of the size of this club and what it represents in every way. We are dedicating ourselves a lot, but it has not been enough, so we need to look for something different to change this whole situation,” he said.

The coach also pointed out that the team created some chances throughout the match, but stressed the need for greater accuracy in finishing.

“In general, São Paulo had chances to break through, deliver balls across the box, and get shots off — we had all of that. We have to be aware that precision is essential at a time like this. It is very difficult, very complicated,” he concluded.

São Paulo return to the field against Red Bull Bragantino next Saturday (29) at 8 p.m. at MorumBIS, in the next round of the Brasileirão.
