Dorival Júnior hopes for peace at Corinthians amid elections | OneFootball

This Sunday, the 24th, Corinthians returned to the field for the Brazilian Championship. In a match valid for the 21st round of the competition, the Alvinegro went to São Januário to face Vasco, aiming to break a six-game winless streak in the tournament. In a competent performance, Timão took advantage of the opportunities they had and won 3-2, with goals from Maycon, Gui Negão, and Gustavo Henrique.

After the match, coach Dorival Júnior spoke to the press in a collective interview, answering several questions. Among them, the coach talked about the political moment Corinthians is experiencing – the club will elect a new president this Monday, the 25th, in an indirect election after Augusto Melo’s mandate was revoked due to irregularities in the VaideBet case.

“(We are dealing) With calm, I understand that this is the moment we are living. Thank God, our work, from the moment we realized it was involving and suddenly interfering in the day-to-day at the training center. Together with Fabinho, we tried to neutralize all possible situations. May the best happen for Corinthians. We will have three candidates, let them decide what is best, and above all, may Corinthians have peace so we can work without problems.”

The coach also spoke about his situation after the election. “If it happens that one or another candidate is not satisfied with what is happening, I give my best. I believe a lot in my work, it’s natural that each one evaluates things in their own way, as they see, participate, and are present. After all, we are in there, doing our best for Corinthians and I never want to get in anyone’s way, ever.”, he said.

Dorival continued to defend his work: “But I am giving a lot of myself so that we can recover all these conditions and I believe that something good is happening because results do not happen overnight. I believe a lot in processes, in respect above all, in this condition that, for me, makes teams mature and create consistency throughout a season.”

Now, Corinthians shifts focus to the Copa do Brasil. At 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), next Wednesday, August 27, the Alvinegro visits Athletico-PR at Arena da Baixada, for the first leg of the national knockout tournament quarterfinals.
