Gerson published a text on his social networks in which he talks to the public about the status of his relationship with teammate Varela. Both players had a disagreement on Tuesday (15) and the number 20 came to attack the Uruguayan with punches in the nose. In addition to the fracture on his face, the right-back suffered an injury in the team's last match.
This Thursday afternoon (17), Gerson published a text on his Twitter (X) and on Instagram directed at Varela. Early on, the Mengão star calls him a work partner, but also a "friend". In the message, the midfielder makes it clear that they talked about the fight between them on Wednesday morning and, there, Gerson said that "mistakes are part of us humans and sometimes we exceed ourselves". With forgiveness and reconciliation clear between them and the public, he even included: "I'm sure we'll come out even bigger and better from all of this. I extend our [Wednesday] hug over here."
The shirt 20 also included in the post a wish for a good recovery for Varela. The athlete was on the field, even with a fractured nose, in the semifinal this Wednesday (16), when he suffered an injury to the medial collateral ligament and joint capsule of his right knee. The expected recovery time is between six and eight weeks. "May your recovery from the knee injury be brief and may you be with us as soon as possible", said Gerson.
Varela replied to the message, thanking his partner for his support. "We've always had a good friendship and mistakes always teach us, now it's time to recover and come back better", said the Uruguayan player on his social networks. Other players also responded on the internet to Gerson's attitude. Among them are Matheus Cunha, Bruno Henrique, Arrascaeta, Filipe Luís, Pulgar, Fabrício Bruno and Wesley.

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.
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.

This Sunday (15), Mais Querido drew 1-1 with Vasco, in a match valid for the 26th round of the Brazilian Championship, at Maracanã. Despite dominating much of the game, CRF was unable to turn its superiority into a victory. The goals were scored by Gerson, for Mengão, and Philippe Coutinho, for the rival.
From the opening whistle, Mengão imposed themselves on the field, with more than 60% possession of the ball and a strong presence in attack. However, the lack of precision in finishing prevented the team from increasing the score. Goalkeeper Léo Jardim stood out when he prevented the goal from a header from Erick Pulgar.
Gerson, the team captain, opened the scoring in the 26th minute of the second half, after a good exchange of passes between Wesley and Arrascaeta , culminating in a sharp left leg kick. However, Vasco took advantage of a rare counterattack and equalized with Coutinho, after a controversial move involving a penalty request from Léo Pereira.
In the first half, Mais Querido had several opportunities to take the lead, with emphasis on a play by Arrascaeta, who stole the ball in the attacking field and almost scored, but hesitated with the finish. Vasco, in turn, did little to threaten Rossi's goal, limiting themselves to defending and trying sporadic counterattacks.
The panorama did not change in the second half. Bruno Henrique and Léo Ortiz hit the post, and Mengão's pressure remained intense. Even with Gerson's goal, the team saw Vasco draw in one of their few opportunities.
With the draw, Flamengo reaches 45 points and remains in fourth place in the Brasileirão, while Botafogo and Palmeiras increase their advantages in leadership. Fla still has one game in hand, which keeps the hope of touching the top spot alive. The result leaves a bitter taste for Mengão, who showed intensity and superiority, but left the field without victory.
