0Flamengo was eliminated from the Libertadores early. However, what frustrated the fans most was that Tite chose to leave Carlos Alcaraz on the bench and not use him when he needed a positive result against Peñarol in Montevideo.
So, after the victory of Mais Querido this Sunday (29) against Athletico-PR, where the Argentine midfielder started as a starter alongside Erick Pulgar, the player was asked in the mixed zone of Maracanã about the clash against Peñarol and whether he was sad about not being activated. However, Charly highlighted that he was ready, but that the entire cast needed to be closed.
“I knew that if I put myself out there, I would try to do my best, and if I didn't put myself out there, play, I would also support the team. We went into a very difficult match, we all had to be together, everyone moving towards the same side. The truth is that the result was not what we expected, but I am very calm about the commitment I have to the club, to my teammates and to the coaching staff”, says Charly.
