The player asked for calm regarding playing time. “I don’t think it’s realistic for me to play 90 minutes. We have to respect the athletes’ bodies. It’s been two months without games. I think it was a good start today. I had good minutes. I feel I’m getting stronger in training. We have to be smart in training, but of course I came here to help the team,” Memphis said in the mixed zone.
Memphis will be available for Ramon Diaz in the next match in the Copa Sudamericana. The player was ruled out of the quarter-final against Fortaleza, but is registered and can play his second match next Tuesday, again at the New Quimica Arena.
Redemption of Yuri Alberto
Yuri Alberto also did not find the net, but in the opinion of the Corinthians technical committee, he had an incredible game. Assistant Emiliano Diaz was keen to praise the striker and ask for respect for the athlete, who is Corinthians’ top scorer this year with 17 goals.
“I think Yuri played a great game today. He tired both defenders. He is our top scorer, along with Angel. [Romero] “They are our team’s top scorers and we have to respect them,” said assistant Ramon Diaz.
“I have always said that the top scorer has had a tough time this year. Yuri has already put that behind him and will help us a lot in the three competitions. We are very happy with the work he is doing and all our strikers. I congratulated him and congratulated him because, from our point of view, he had an amazing game.”
