GrĂªmio secured a 2-1 win against Sportivo Luqueño in their Copa Sudamericana debut, but their below-average performance is causing concern. Coach Gustavo Quinteros' post-match analysis suggests a belief in the current strategy, hinting at potential challenges this season.
GrĂªmio relied heavily on opponent errors, exhibiting the same weaknesses seen in previous matches. The team struggled with defensive flanks and midfield transitions, limiting offensive opportunities. Individual performances were mixed, with Pavon, Jemerson, and Cristaldo underperforming, while Amuzu and Braithwaite showed positive contributions.
Their upcoming match against CearĂ¡ in the BrasileirĂ£o demands improved performance. The article emphasizes that relying on the current strategy, which involves winning while playing poorly, is unsustainable for long-term success. Quinteros needs to recognize this and adapt for consistent results.
