Internacional Dismisses Head Coach Roger Machado
(MENAFN) Internacional has parted ways with head coach Roger Machado following a 3-2 home loss to archrivals Gremio on Sunday, amid a steep downturn in form that has seen the team lose six of its last seven matches in all competitions.
Club president Alessandro Barcellos announced the dismissal during a post-match press conference.
"We'd like to inform you that we've made the decision to dismiss Roger Machado," he told reporters.
"It's always a difficult time; everyone who works at the club knows that changing a coach is rarely seen as a positive thing," Barcellos added.
Assistant coach Pablo Fernandez will take charge on an interim basis while the club searches for a long-term successor.
Machado, who took over in July last year, ends his tenure with a record of 34 victories, 20 draws, and 19 defeats.
A historic force in South American football, Internacional has won three Serie A championships and lifted the Copa Libertadores twice.
