00:00A very difficult game, which would be common at this stage of the Copa do Brasil, to face a tough opponent.
00:06Internacional is a historic rival of Corinthians; we know there's a rivalry that has been established over the years.
00:13recent years,
00:13especially after 2005, with Corinthians winning the Brazilian championship.
00:18That's good, it adds a little something extra to the confrontation, it gives it a little more flavor.
00:22I found it interesting to decide at home; statistically, deciding at home is an advantage. It doesn't guarantee anything, but it's an advantage.
00:28And I really liked this format of having two games back-to-back, there's no break between games, there's nothing else.
00:33competition between games.
00:34So, from a strategic point of view, it's better to develop a strategy specifically to face that same opponent, playing away from home.
00:41the home game.
00:42So this is very interesting, I think it's a good innovation, a great confrontation, a great opponent, but Corinthians
00:49is the current champion,
00:51He knows how to do very well in this type of competition, he's a cup specialist, Corinthians is a cup specialist, he's an actor who has four
00:57Brazilian Cups,
00:58And they are the current champions. And I think it wasn't good for Inter to draw Corinthians either.
01:02Just like Corinthians, maybe if I had to choose, I wouldn't choose Inter, right?
01:05But we will do our best to advance to the next phase at the beginning of August.
01:10Marcelo, now that we're exhausting the topic of the Copa do Brasil, you've certainly spoken a few times here about contract renewals.
01:16Memphis.
01:16We saw that there was a meeting, well, that's all we can say, that's what we can pass on to the fans.
01:20What do you think about that right now?
01:21What we can convey to the fans is that there's a desire on both sides, right?
01:27Corinthians and Memphis both want it. If we're going to break it down a bit more, president Osmar wants it...
01:34Marcelo Paes wants it, Diniz wants it, the players want it, the fans want it, and Memphis wants it too.
01:39And he has already understood and accepted a different contract model, with different due dates.
01:45with something that fits Corinthians' current reality, with the possibility of greater gains through partnerships.
01:51So, he already understands that. Now we're looking into making it feasible.
01:55Salary reduction.
01:56Yes, he already understood and accepted that.
01:59It's a reduction, not a salary reduction; it's a new contract, in a different format.
02:04with lower salaries than the current ones, but which may have variable compensation, right?
02:08For commercial performance, that causes values to rise.
02:15But that's not the most important thing; the important thing is that he wants it.
02:17He wants to stay, he desires to stay, he is making an effort to stay.
02:20So, I believe we can reach a good agreement.
02:23It's a negotiation, it's not that simple, he's an international athlete.
02:28The only Corinthians player who will be at the World Cup, so far.
02:33So, it's something that has its complexities, but I've been involved in football negotiations for 12 years.
02:38When both parties want it, it usually flows smoothly and works out.
02:41The World of Sao...
02:45The World of Sao...
