This Sunday (24), Flamengo and São Paulo will face each other again in the second leg of the grand final of the Copa do Brasil, which will be held at the Morumbi Stadium. This will be the ninth final of the knockout tournament played by Rubro Negro, who has four titles and is looking for a fifth championship.

Mais Querido has already reached the finals of the Copa do Brasil on eight occasions. Of these, it won four and was runner-up on four other occasions, which gives Rubro Negro a 50% advantage in the decisions of the competition so coveted by Brazilian teams.

Flamengo could have the chance to win the fifth trophy this Sunday (24), at the Morumbi Stadium, if they beat São Paulo with two or more goals difference. Because Rubro Negro 1-0 in the first leg, at Maracanã, otherwise the game will be decided on penalties.

Carlinhos' performance in the last classic between Flamengoand Vasco, played on Sunday, has generated a wave of criticism and questions from the red and black fans. The striker, who entered the field in the 18th minute of the second half, replacing Bruno Henrique, played a discreet role and ended up failing to help the team in one of the most decisive moments of the match.

The classic, as always, was a game intense and highly anticipated by both fans, with great weight for the championship table and the morale of the teams. However, Carlinhos' entry, which lasted just 27 minutes, was considered below expectations, especially in a scenario where Flamengo was looking for a victory to distance itself from its rivals.

FLAMENGO HAS A DEFICIENCY IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP < /b>

During the 27 minutes he was on the field, Carlinhos barely appeared, failing to influence the game as expected. The player only touched the ball a few times, did not create clear scoring chances and also did not help efficiently in the defensive system. With an apathetic performance, the striker ended up becoming a target of frustration for the fans, who expected more from a player who, at other times, had already demonstrated the potential to be decisive.

The lack of offensive participation was a of the main points raised by critics. In a game that required creativity and boldness to break through the Vasco blockade, Carlinhos was unable to find spaces or impose his presence as a constant threat to the opponent's goal. In classics, where every detail makes a difference, this lack of protagonism weighed even more.


The replacement of Bruno Henrique by Carlinhoswas also a factor that generated discussion. Bruno Henrique, although he was not having a brilliant performance, is a player recognized for his ability to decide games, especially in big confrontations. His departure 18 minutes into the second half was justified by the coaching staff as part of the planning to spare the athlete, who recently returned from injury.

After taking charge of Flamengo, Tite, former coach of the Brazilian national team, made it clear that he is quickly adapting to the club's culture. In recent statements, he highlighted Rubro-Negro's striking characteristic: the incessant search for all possible titles. According to the coach, this spirit of intense competition is something that he not only admires, but is also incorporating into his own work philosophy.

Tite, known for his meticulous and results-focused work, revealed that the Transition to Flamengo involves constant learning, especially in relation to the club's winning mentality. "Flamengo has this culture of fighting for every title. There is no focus on just one competition, the goal is to win everything within reach", he explained.


THE COACH WANTS A COMPETITIVE STYLE

This characteristic is notable in Flamengoin recent years, which has won several important competitions, such as the Brazilian Championship and the Copa Libertadores. Tite, accustomed to pressure and the need for results, states that this mentality is something he is adopting in his day-to-day life at the club. “I see this culture, and this is what we are doing. Flamengo has this requirement, and I am a coach who likes this type of challenge.”

Although Tite has an established career, with successful spells at clubs such as Corinthians and the Brazilian national team, Flamengo represents a new experience for the coach. He is now at the helm of a team that has traditionally had fans calling for victories in every competition they compete in, something he sees as a positive challenge.


"You have to learn every day Even with the experience I have, here I realize that there are very high expectations, but at the same time that's what makes you grow", commented the coach. For him, working at a club that maintains such a high level of demand motivates him to always seek the best.

Despite being ahead of a Flamengo

a> who is still fighting for three titles in this second semester, Tite faces a period of questions from the fans. Dissatisfaction is not directly related to the results obtained, but rather to the team's performance on the field. Since the end of the Copa América, the team has shown a drop in performance that is worrying, even more so with the growing number of injuries.

This scenario has made it difficult for Tite to get the team to reach a level more stable and consistent performance. Even in the face of these challenges, the coach achieved a significant milestone in the last match, showing that, despite the difficulties, there are still positive points in his career in charge of Flamengo. However, the pressure to improve performance is constant, and the fans hope that the team will once again show the convincing football they have become accustomed to seeing.


TITE IS BEING "HUNTED" 

Tite, coach of Flamengo, has faced criticism from the fans, despite keeping the team competitive on three fronts in the second half. Disputes are not related to the results obtained, but to the team's performance. Since the end of the Copa América, there has been a noticeable drop in the team's performance, a situation that has worsened due to the increase in the number of injuries to key players.


Despite the difficulties in getting the team to maintain a consistent pace, Tite achieved a significant milestone in the last match, demonstrating his ability to keep Flamengo competitive even in the midst of challenges.
