Last Wednesday night (25), Flamengo faced Grêmio in a match that promised to be decisive in the race for the Brazilian Championship title. After the final whistle, with Grêmio winning 1-0, Uruguayan midfielder Giorgian De Arrascaeta gave an interview in the mixed area of the Rio Grande do Sul stadium to talk about his team's performance and the difficulties encountered in the second half.
Arrascaeta, a fundamental part of the red and black tactical scheme, expressed his analysis of Flamengo's performance in the match. The player highlighted that the team faced a very defensively organized Grêmio, who knew how to neutralize Flamengo's main moves. "They studied our team well and managed to hold us back. It was a difficult game, but we still have a lot of matches ahead of us", stated the number 14.
Commenting on the difficulties encountered in the second half, Arrascaeta highlighted that the intensity of the match increased considerably. "In the second half, Grêmio pressed more and managed to score a goal. We tried to react, but we were unsuccessful in equalizing. They played very well defensively", said the midfielder. The defeat was particularly impactful for Flamengo, as, if they had won, they would have reduced the gap to the championship leader to just six points.
Arrascaeta recognized the importance of this match and the impact that the result could have on the season. "We knew this was a golden opportunity to close the gap, but we couldn't. Now, we have to focus on recovering the lost points in the next matches and maintaining our quest for the title", he highlighted. The Uruguayan midfielder also highlighted that the Brazilian Championship is a long and unpredictable competition, and that Flamengo still has many rounds to go.
"We cannot be discouraged by a defeat. We have a strong squad and a competent coaching staff. We will work hard and continue looking for the victories we need", said Arrascaeta. Arrascaeta's interview also addressed the atmosphere in the locker room after the defeat. The midfielder revealed that there was a frank conversation between the players and the coaching staff, aiming to correct mistakes and keep motivation high. "Our team is mature enough to deal with defeats. We know we need to improve in some aspects, and everyone is committed to doing that," he said.
Arrascaeta also praised Flamengo fans, who turned out in large numbers number to the stadium in Porto Alegre and gave unconditional support to the team. "The fans always support us, at home or away. We know they are sad about the defeat, just like us, but I hope they continue to support us, because we need them," said the midfielder. Finally, Arrascaeta made it clear that the season still holds many challenges for Flamengo, and that the team is determined to fight for the title until the end.
"We believe in our potential and in the work we are doing. The championship is open, and we will fight until the last game", concluded the player. In summary, Flamengo's defeat to Grêmio had a considerable impact on the search for the Brazilian Championship title, but Arrascaeta and his team are determined to overcome the difficulties and continue in the race for the top of the table, maintaining confidence in their abilities and the support from its passionate fans.

Flamengo idol Adriano Imperador stated in an interview that he played more than some of the biggest names in world football. With a career marked by talent, physical strength, and humility , "Didico" continues to be fondly remembered by Flamengo fans.
During an appearance on the show Boteco do Chula, Adriano was asked if he had performed at a higher level than stars like Ronaldo, Romário, Ibrahimovic, Mbappé, Lewandowski, and Gabigol . The former player candidly stated that he considers himself superior to some of them.
In the Emperor's opinion, Kyllian Mbappé, Robert Lewandowski, and Gabigol are behind him . However, according to Adriano himself, Romário, Ibrahimovic , and Ronaldo Fenômeno are in a higher tier.
Adriano's most significant connection with the club came in the 2009 Brazilian Championship . During that campaign, the striker played in 30 of the 38 rounds, scoring 19 goals and contributing four assists. With him on the field, the team recorded 15 wins, seven draws, and eight losses.

In a recent interview with GE, he highlighted the team's unity as a determining factor in winning the trophy: " Theoretically, I was down there, the team wasn't doing well.
