NO THERE! FLUMINENSE'S STEERING WHEEL LOSES CONTROL AND "CASTS" WITH REPORTER AFTER ELIMINATION TO FLAMENGO

After suffering elimination for Flamengo, in the Carioca semi-final, midfielder André "clashed" with the Band's report. When asked about the 13 consecutive classics without victory for the team led by Fernando Diniz, the player got angry and started citing the club's recent achievements.

"You're talking so much that we come from 13 classics without winning, but they forget to mention that we are two-time state champions, we just became Libertadores champions, we came back, trained for five days, and were Recopa champions. You talk a lot about the negative side. You have to talk about the work that has been built. ( Fernando) Diniz took over the team at Z-4, we were third in the Brazilian Championship, and last year champions of the Libertadores and the State Championship", said André.

 “Our team made its real debut in this second match. We made a big mistake in the first game. Full credit to Flamengo. Our team, coming back a month after the others, we didn't play at the same level. Merit to Flamengo. Getting our heads straight, resting and having a good season", added André, still in the Maracanã lawn.

FLUMINENSE'S DECENDING SEQUENCE

With this Saturday's draw (16), Fluminense reached 13 classics without a victory, the biggest negative mark in the club's history. Of the sequence, seven were against Flamengo, with four draws and three wins for Mais Querido. Furthermore, the team lost all of them to Botafogo (three) and two positive results from Vasco, adding up to a draw.

FLAMENGO IN THE FINAL

In this way, while the Laranjeiras team will have almost 20 days without official games, the Mais Querido prepares for the Carioca final. However, the opponent is undefined and will be known this Sunday (17), when Nova Iguaçu and Vasco duel at Maraca.
