After the end of the FIFA Date, Flamengo returned to the field on Thursday night (19). At the Mineirão stadium, Mais Querido beat Cruzeiro by a score of 2-0. The match marked Tite's debut as Rubro Negro's new coach. In the post-game press conference, the new coach revealed the goals he has in front of the team.

"Flamengo of Flamengo. I tried to have the ability to preserve what Flamengo is historically. What are the characteristics of the players in the squad . It's the work that has to be valued. The coach cannot be overvalued. We, on the committee, have to enhance the athletes, and we don't want great recognition from you. Adjust gears", he said, in a press conference.

It is worth remembering that Mais Querido's new coach was officially announced last week, on Monday (09) and presented last Monday (16). Firstly, the coach arrived to replace Jorge Sampaoli, who left the club with a questionable job and controversial performances.

Therefore, Tite will have the mission of classifying the Flamengo team directly for the Libertadores 2024. However, beyond that, the coach needs to regain the players’ trust. Beforehand, the coach highlighted that he is keen to adjust the team's gears.


With the next commitment in sight, the Rubro Negro squad will not have a break. According to journalist Fred Gomes, from GE, the team will perform again at CT Ninho do Urubu this Friday (20), at 3pm. On Saturday (21), the squad will arrive at CT around 2:30 pm, to begin concentration for the classic against Vasco.
