Bruno Lage liked the hiring of Diego Costaannounced by Botafogo on the night of this Saturday (12/8). In a press conference after the comeback victory over Internacional by 3-1, at Estádio Nilton Santos, the Portuguese coach praised the 34-year-old striker.
– I didn’t talk to him, but I put a lot of pressure on him to come (laughs). I looked like Tiquinho and Eduardo putting pressure on. What was important was that we were all comfortable with Diego coming and we are. He is a man of faith, of unity and he comes to help. He comes with a huge spirit to join this team, he has a huge spirit to give advice to younger people. André (Mazzuco) and Alessandro (Brito) did a fantastic job, bringing a man and a player who will help us to be better and better – assured Bruno Lage.
The technician still preferred not to answer whether he will be able to use Tiquinho Soares and Diego Costa together in Botafogo.
– It’s one day at a time. What I believe is let’s see how it fits. I know we have a great player, I already knew him. This team is full of good players. speak “put the A, B or C”. Who could play at center forward today? 33% would say Janderson, 33% Eduardo and 33% Carlos Alberto. If I put them both (Tiquinho and Diego), who do I remove, Eduardo? They are players giving a tremendous response, with a tremendous team spirit. Luis (Henrique) said that there are no starters, today he jumped off the bench, made the cross and scored the third goal – scored.
