What They're Saying
Corinthians manager Tite (via Globoesporte): "This is a plummet that is not for me. For me, no good. This type of inference does not serve. I have respect for people and institutions. I am the coach of Corinthians, I'm the technician. No one will raise my condition, no one. I am very proud of my career, very. Let's start thinking. For this game [against San Lorenzo], we had to reserve fuel. For Sunday, we will have to adjust to review. They [the players] are eating noodles in there."
Palmeiras manager Oswaldo de Oliveira (via Portal): "Corinthians has been playing very well, made the best campaign of the first phase, but the semifinal is half and half. It will make those who have better placement good, and we will have commitment."
