Flamengo hosts Peñarol next Thursday (19), at Maracanã, for the first leg of the Libertadores quarter-finals. Thus, the former Lugano player made a projection of the confrontation and warned Mais Querido about the difficulties he must face with the Uruguayan team. Furthermore, the commentator was surprised when analyzing the chances of his country's team.
Lugano commented on Peñarol's tactical strengths and said that it is a more organized team than Flamengo. Furthermore, he also pointed out the way for the Uruguayans to overcome Mais Querido, but he has doubts about another point to make about whether the club is capable of advancing.
“The chance that Peñarol has: to take the pace, Flamengo space. This, tactically, he knows how to do very well. You have to see if you have the strength and technique to attack as well. But if Peñarol comes out of Maracanã alive, it will be very complicated for Flamengo. Leaving alive, 1 to 0, 2 to 1”, warns Lugano.
LUGANO ISSUES WARNING ABOUT PEÑAROL'S WILL POWERThe ESPN commentator also highlighted that Uruguayan "hunger" is bigger than Flamengo's, which could lead to Mais Querido being eliminated: “It moves the fans, it has tradition. The club is regaining that confidence now, that dream of being Libertadores champion. This infects the player, it infects the institution. Technically, obviously, it is much inferior to Flamengo. But tactically, in terms of hunger, fire, Peñarol is superior to Flamengo”, says Lugano.
FOCUS ON THE NEXT CONFRONTATIONSo, with the warnings from Lugano, the cast of Mais Querido continues to prepare for the match against Peñarol. Rubro-Negro returns to the field on Thursday (19), at 7pm, at Maracanã, for the first leg of the Libertadores quarter-finals.

Flamengo only drew 1-1 with Vasco, last Sunday (15). Mais Querido came to dominate a good part of the match, but due to defensive errors, Cruzmaltino scored the goal that tied the score. The first was from Léo Pereira, but on the counterattack, Fabrício Bruno and Evrtton Araújo also did not miss. After the goal, there was an argument between Tite and the red and black number 4.
At the beginning of the play, Léo Pereira is in attack, where he makes a good move on the left wing. However, the defender falls and loses the ball. Vasco's goal had a ball sent from right to left, where the defender should have been, leaving the side free for the smooth cross to reach Coutinho.
Soon after Vasco's goal, Tite argued with Léo Pereira, signaling an error by the defender in the attack. The defender did not like the reprimand, and appears to respond to the coach effusively, until he turns his back and swings his arm behind him.

Despite the discussion on the field, Tite came to Léo Pereira's defense at the press conference. Mais Querido's coach claimed that referee Raphael Claus did not call a foul on the defender at the start of the goal.
