‘This drama wasn’t supposed to happen’, said Mano Menezes after the international’s victory over the Libertadores.
After the intense charge of emotions with Internacional's painful 1-0 victory over Metropolitanos, in the Libertadores, coach Mano Menezes admitted that the team suffered much more than the performance indicated to guarantee the victory. In addition to pointing out statistics that suggest Colorado's dominance over the Venezuelan team, the coach argued that, if the team had managed to score the first goal earlier, the score in Beira-Rio would have been much more flexible.
