Renato Gaúcho is no longer Vasco's manager
Renato Gaúcho’s third spell in charge of Vasco has come to an end.
The 63-year-old coach was dismissed on Thursday night (18).
The decision was made 18 days after the team’s last match before the World Cup break.
"Vasco da Gama informs that Renato Gaúcho is no longer the head coach of the professional team. The decision was made by mutual agreement between the parties. Vasco thanks the coach and his staff for their services during his third spell at the club and wishes them success in the continuation of their careers," the club said in an official statement.
There was no termination penalty in the agreement signed between the parties.
Vasco went into the Brasileirão break with three straight league defeats, but Renato was still in charge.
According to ge, what ultimately weighed against him were the criticisms he made of the squad in the weeks before the losing streak.
Part of the squad reportedly did not approve of that attitude. His remarks about Colombian players also did not go down well.
Vasco’s squad will return next Monday (22). There will be 30 days of work until football resumes with the clash against Independiente Medellín in the Copa Sudamericana playoffs.
Fast start in the league and drop in form
He was in charge of Cruz-Maltino for 22 matches. There were nine wins, six draws, and seven defeats.
The start was positive, including wins over Palmeiras and a big comeback against Fluminense — which helped spark the team’s recovery in the league.
And Vasco also got off to a good start in the Copa Sudamericana even while resting several starters.
But then came the heavy loss to Inter, the defeat to Olimpia in the Sudamericana — which made life harder for the team to advance in 1st place — and the loss in São Januário to RB Bragantino.
The "game of the year" then became the match against Barras Central. And Vasco secured a place in the Sudamericana playoffs, easing the pressure from the poor run.
The next result was another home defeat, this time to Atlético-MG, followed by an apparent “crisis averted” heading into the World Cup break.
Vasco sit just inside the Brasileirão relegation zone with 20 points. And, besides being in the Sudamericana playoffs, they will face Fluminense in the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil.
