Abel Ferreira has already kicked off the match between Palmeiras and Flamengo, on Wednesday (7), at 8pm (Brasília time), at Allianz Parque, for the second leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil. After the draw against Inter on Sunday (4), the Portuguese coach called on the fans, criticized the press, and revealed that he told his players that this season Alviverde will be "against everything and everyone".

See the coach's speech alviverde:

"This year will be against everything and everyone. News is often created, invented, leaders say this and that. This is just to generate news, it's false, bad, shallow journalism, It seems like I arrived here four days ago. I haven't been here for four days, I've been here for four years. players with me or the management, that's what I demand from others, respect. I won't respect anyone who doesn't respect me. I know those who do serious journalism very well, and I'm not saying that I'm perfect and I'm right in everything I do. recently, I've been right more than I've been wrong. But I apologize for the mistakes I made. Here it seems that everyone is perfect, and the managers, players and coaches are the incompetent ones. I will always stand up to defend my players, as I always have. A lot of things happened at the same time, and once again: this year will be against everything and everyone. I've already prepared the players for this."

What happened?

Palmeiras managed to "stop" the results crisis and managed to draw a draw against Internacional. The team had three defeats in the last three games and the draw, with a goal at the end of the match, alleviated the team's situation before the decisive game against Flamengo.

Abel Ferreira took advantage of the moment of relief to create a favorable environment for the team before the decision and inflamed the fans. The coach asked for the fans' conditional support from the first to the last second in the game against Flamengo.


"For those who are distracted, with bad intentions, opportunists, for those who are jealous of the team. Palmeiras, it is during these periods that we have to see who is on our side, who are those who want to continue to belong and help this group to continue to win. Strength has to come from within, we are all one, not just in victories. The coach's job is to choose the players to play, whether they like it or not, but I'm the one who has all the information. He is not a journalist, fan or opportunist. Our director's role is to help manage the group, sign players and sell players. Our president isn't even worth talking about. She is absolutely extraordinary, she has more courage than many combined. And our fans, the 16 million we have, who on Wednesday [against Flamengo] help us from the first to the last second to seek a place in the next phase", he added.


Abel used the motto for the first time again in April 2021. That year, Palmeiras chose to spare its starters in the Campeonato Paulista to use them in the Libertadores and had difficulty confirming its classification for the next phase of the State Championship. Abel even said that that year he would be "against everything and everyone".

Palmeiras ended the 2021 season with the Copa Libertadores title over Flamengo. Abel's motto became an echoing Palmeiras mantra. in the stands. Against the same Rubro-negro, Alviverde will need to reverse a 2-0 score to advance to the next stage in the Copa do Brasil.

"I don't only know teams that win, only coaches who win and only players who play well, nor perfect families. Our time has come to suffer together"

Tite's statement came after a delicate moment for Flamengo. The defeat to Peñarol, at home, in a group stage match of the Copa Libertadores, raised alarm bells for fans and the coaching staff. Flamengo had high expectations for the season, especially after major reinforcements and the arrival of Tite, a coach with wide recognition on the national and international scene.

The pressure on Flamengo is nothing new. The club, which has one of the biggest fans in the world, is known for its high expectations for titles. The expensive squad, made up of renowned players, also increases this demand. Each stumble is widely covered by the media and amplifies the dissatisfaction of part of the fans, who demand immediate results.

CAN IT GO BAD AT THE MOMENT?

The Copa Libertadores, in particular, has a important meaning for Flamengo and its fans. The continental tournament is seen as one of the club's main objectives each season. Any result other than victory can generate dissatisfaction and pressure on the technical committee, as occurred after the setback against Peñarol.

In this context, Tite's speech not only recognizes the fans' dissatisfaction, but also is realistic in relation to what is expected from a club like Flamengo. The demand for titles is part of the package when taking over a club of this size, and the coach seems to be aware of this when he points out that he will only be able to win the support of the fans with significant victories.

In an interview given after the defeat of Flamengoto Peñarol, 1-0, coach Tite was direct in responding to the boos received by the fans. The statement, marked by a frank tone, exposed the coach's pragmatic vision in relation to demanding fans and the pressure for results. “I respect the fans’ feelings. Of course I feel that (the boos), I'm human”, said Tite, recognizing the fans' frustration in the face of the setback.

Tite's speech reveals that he understands the role of fans as a fundamental part in the context of a club, especially in a team of great expression like Flamengo. By mentioning that the boos affect him as a human being, the coach demonstrates empathy, but does not fail to highlight that the only way to reverse this situation is with achievements on the field. “It can only be reversed in one way”, said the coach.

AND NOW GO? 

The answer reflects Tite's experience in dealing with the pressure that comes with commanding big teams in Brazilian football. With successful spells at clubs like Corinthians , Grêmio and the Brazilian team itself, the coach has a track record that puts him in a position to understand, perhaps like few others, the relationship between performance on the field and fans' expectations. For him, this connection is clear: “Do you know how to win fans? Do you know how I won over the fans of the other clubs I played for? Win an important title”, he declared.

The phrase highlights the centrality of titles in football, especially in mass clubs like Flamengo. In Brazil, the culture of results is intense, and Tite recognizes that fans have a limited tolerance for negative results. Winning titles, for him, is the key to gaining the support of the fans, and anything other than that results in discontent: “If not, bye.”

This last part of Tite's speech summarizes the characteristic impatience of demanding fans like Flamengo. The coach makes it clear that, without obtaining relevant trophies, the relationship with the fans deteriorates quickly. The pressure is constant and is part of the daily life of those who take on the leadership of top teams. Tite seems, however, to be aware of this scenario and how it needs to be faced.
