Flamengo had a disappointing start in the Libertadores group stage. The team led by Tite failed to win on their debut, only drawing 1-1 with Millonarios, from Colombia, at the El Campín Stadium, in Bogotá.

The goal from Flamengo was scored by Pedro, at the beginning of the second half, in a penalty kick. Even with the advantage of an extra player, after the expulsion of Larry Vázquez, the team was unable to hold off Millonarios' pressure. Daniel Ruiz tied the game with just 10 minutes remaining.

On social media, the one who suffered criticism in Tite's starting lineup was left-back Matías Viña. On an unhappy night, the Uruguayan was below expectations both defensively and offensively. The coach of Mais Querido was heavily criticized for taking too long to replace him.


Another question about the coach was the non-entry of Léo Ortiz. Adenor preferred hierarchy and kept David Luiz as starter alongside Fabrício Bruno, a decision that was widely criticized on the web.

DEFENSE LOSES INVINCIBILITY 


There were 118 days of invincibility from goalkeeper Rossi, who hadn't conceded a goal since December last year. The result was considered negative by the Nation on social media, as Millonarios played for much of the final stage with one less player.

TITE'S EXPLANATION< /b>

Coach Tite highlighted the performance of goalkeeper Walter, from Cuiabá, as fundamental to the draw. “Walter had a great game, I think there were 11 shots on goal. In a volume created, with a series of adversities, I will not talk about the calendar, I have already said it and I do not want to be repetitive. We had the search until the final moment. The game presented itself, we tried to use two pivots, we replaced the boys to create the alternatives we needed and here is the support for the boys, Lorran and Werton”, analyzed Tite.



GAME STRATEGY

Tite sought greater coordination in midfield, using Gerson and Lorran as play creators. “I wanted to work on the projection. I looked for an articulating player to give more volume. As I have Lorran together with Gerson, who are two articulators, they look for each other, the idea was to have them. Then, we put together a strategy to pierce their middle and lower block (Cuiabá). We had to make the movement in the last third”, he explained.


DIFFICULTIES FACED

Tite also highlighted the difficulties faced due to the tight schedule, which hampered the team's preparation. “It’s difficult not to talk about the calendar issue. We analyze the opponent and there is no way to train for this game. You put it on video and try to make sure things arrive on time. It was the third game in a row in less than 72 hours. We weren't able to maintain the regularity to put ourselves in front of the goal, to have a cleaner finish. We have to recognize that, on the other side, Walter was on a bright day”, added the coach.
