More than tactical issues, Vagner reported that he wanted to first understand the atmosphere in the tricolor locker room. According to him, his first days in charge of the team were of knowledge and he wants to work on the emotional side of the cast.
“The most important thing was for us to have a lot of intensity over the last few days. Since I arrived in Porto Alegre, I have experienced a lot. We had to filter out what would be important to have a team willing on the field. I see we hit a lot. that we immersed ourselves in Grêmio’s day-to-day activities, we realized some things. We managed to establish that the emotional aspect would be the fundamental point to get right,” said the coach, at a press conference.

The match against Juventude gave an air of hope to the fans and to the Grêmio delegation itself. Mancini believes that the team’s performance can be higher and projects greater performance in the Brasileirão.
“Grêmio played with the soul the fans want to see. We saw a well-organized team in the first half, which knew how to retain the ball, knew how to be aggressive at the right moments. It ended up dropping a little production, which is normal for a team that opened a certain advantage in the match. It is part of the world that everyone lives in here. We want it to be the resumption of the championship. We showed that the team can play more, be more aggressive, win the matches so that we can get out of this situation, which is still uncomfortable”, he highlighted.
