Luís Castro sets Grêmio Brasileirão target, find out Coach Luís Castro has set a clear objective for Grêmio’s development this season. In the process of building the team’s identity, the manager hopes to see practical progress as early as the next match, the clash against Coritiba, scheduled for this Sunday at the Arena. According to ge , the coach’s main demand concerns the team’s offensive play.
In Castro’s view, the players still struggle to identify and exploit the spaces left by opposing defenses. The assessment is that the players end up focusing too much on the ball or the nearest teammate, missing the chance to move and break into the “open spaces” on the field. For the manager, the solution lies in what he defines as “balance.
” The expectation is that Grêmio will become more fluid and quicker in decision-making, naturally spotting and attacking those spaces to break down opposing defensive blocks. Recent adjustments that paid off The search for that attacking depth has already led to important changes in the team. During the match against Deportivo Riestra, the sterile possession and the difficulty in breaking into the opposing defense frustrated the coach on the touchline.
The response came at halftime with the introduction of Enamorado. Using his dribbling to break the lines, the Colombian created the goal-scoring move, provided the assist for Amuzu and, since then, has established himself among the starters. In the win over Confiança, which came after the defeat to Cruzeiro at Mineirão, Castro made another change right from the opening whistle.
