The important point I am referring to is not the point won in Vila, the minimum expected against a team coached by Odair, and from a team that wants something in the championship.
The important point in the title of the post is our coach’s inability to, at least, be consistent in lineup, substitutions and posture on the pitch.
Mano even tried to resume the previous model, with the support tripod formed by Rômulo, Johnny and De Pena, with Alan Patrick floating and Wanderson being the escape of the moves, in addition to Bustos’ advances.
No tactics, we scored a goal in the first minute, in a splash ball. I don’t take credit for Luiz Adriano, because he was there, and there was a clamor at the conclusion. I always value the “was there”. But, again, it was the only thing LA did the whole game, besides missing another goal, alone from the edge of the area, in a beautiful play by the team. He was there, but from that position, a self-respecting center forward, at least it requires a miracle from the goalkeeper.
For the rest, LA has lost every game it has played. Two goals would even be enough, but the ineffectiveness of the 9 is alarming, and I cannot attribute it to physical preparation if a professional player, 15 minutes into the first half, no longer shows any competitiveness.
With the score open, Inter gave space, as always, and again Keiller harmed the team, this time positioning himself badly, so as not to see the kick, and jump into the void. Lucas Lima hits the ball well, but he doesn’t have a strong shot, nor is he known for free kicks. From that distance, almost nobody scores a free-kick anymore, covering the wall and making the ball drop is for very few nowadays. That’s why the goalkeeper wants to cover the corner of the barrier, positioning himself with no view of the kick, it’s a lot of failure.
Even with the draw, Inter continued in the game. Even with the ineffectiveness of LA, Inter tried the attacks, had the exchange of passes and controlled Santos in the attack, they just couldn’t finish, because with practically one player less, the difficulties in the attack would be evident.
Here comes the second half and the inconsistency. If the team gets tired at 442, imagine at 433, with less protection from the back and midfield. And that’s what Mano did, fielding Jean Dias, taking out De Pena. Then Santos, who was already better, took over the midfield and started to press, just not expanding the score because it is a team coached by Odair.
The inconsistency has not diminished with the addition of Tahuan, our full-back with an obvious offensive vocation, but who sometimes plays on the wing, sometimes plays in the middle, sometimes plays as a striker, and they want performance.
Mano dismantled the team with two substitutions. Still, in the individual effort, Inter could have scored another goal, but we were tied, after the coach kept shouting on the pitch for them to hold the game, guaranteeing the point away from home, the mantra of failure.
But another important point that I need to highlight is the image that I don’t know if the TV shows or comments on, in Wednesday’s game, at the time of the penalties, when Estevão, among those who finished the game, and therefore able to take the penalty , leaves the line of players in the middle of the field and goes to the sideline, with technical commission and reserves, who would not beat the penalties.
The player’s posture is unacceptable, and the technical commission that did not send him back. There is no place for cowards in Inter’s team, and I can even accept bad players, but this cowardly gesture, with the coach’s approval, cannot go unnoticed.
I also see that many blame the lack of options on the bench, but this team that is there cannot even concede a goal from América, much less not score two or three on Odair’s team. The squad’s cane only serves to hide the errors of our coach, who took forever to see what was wrong, and when he did, he did not sustain the correct positioning of the team for more than 45 minutes.
I hope that the signings of Gabriel, Aranguiz and Valencia will help the coach with quality, although I believe we need two more. I follow the idea that a good center forward consecrates Wandeson, PH and Alan Patrick, as well as a midfielder with speed reissues De Pena and Bustos.
A small compliment to Rômulo, who squandered will and dedication in the most lacking position in the defensive frame. Incomprehensible that Mano took so long to see the obvious.
