Coach Tite is in a delicate situation at Flamengo. After the elimination in the Libertadores against Peñarol (URU), the coach's continuity began to be discussed behind the scenes at the club. Because of this, part of the board is trying to convince Filipe Luís to take command of the main team until the end of 2024.

However, Filipe Luís believes that it is not yet the ideal time to take on this responsibility. The former player currently coaches Flamengo's under-20 team, where he has already won the Copa Rio, against Vasco, and the World Cup, with a comeback victory over Olympiacos (GRE) at Maracanã. The information was released by journalist Paulo Vinicius Coelho.


“ Flamengo's management is trying to convince Filipe Luís to be the coach until the end of the year. No one will confirm this information, but no one has denied it. But Filipe Luís wouldn't want to take over, precisely because of the scenario of how things are happening. In other words, Tite is being raffled off in a way that is not appropriate for a coach of his size”, said PVC on the program 'De Primeira', on Uol.


MEETING TO EVALUATE TITE'S WORK TITE

According to the portal 'Coluna do Fla', Flamengo's board of directors scheduled a meeting for the weekend, with the aim of evaluating the team's recent results under Tite's command. Despite this, the possibility of dismissal before the confrontation with Corinthians, in the semi-final of the Copa do Brasil, is practically ruled out.


FILIPE LUÍS TALKS ABOUT TAKING UP THE MAIN CAST

After winning the Under-20 World Cup title, on August 24, Filipe Luís commented on the possibility of coaching Flamengo's main team. The former full-back highlighted that he still needs to prepare more and gain the fans' trust in his new role before taking this step.

“The responsibility is different today (in the professional world), it largely depends on the result , not my performance. I feel the weight of work, but I'm doing what I love most, what I want and I feel increasingly prepared. I started in the right place, which is at the base. I've been wrong, I've been right. The player was left behind and I have to win the affection of the fans on the other side, as a coach. If I manage Flamengo in the future, I want to be as prepared as possible. But I still have to prepare myself”, said the U20 coach.

There is a great possibility that Atlético-MG will enter the field with a reserve team. The Minas Gerais club played in the middle of the week, beating Fluminense in the quarter-finals of the Libertadores, and faces Vasco, on Wednesday (02), in the semi-finals of the Copa do Brasil. Palmeiras, on the other hand, is fully focused on the Brasileirão, after being eliminated from the Copa do Brasil by Flamengo and the Libertadores by Botafogo.


Botafogo, driven by its classification over the São Paulo in the Libertadores, arrives confident to face Grêmio. However, the team from Rio Grande do Sul is on alert, after losing at home to Criciúma and remaining just three points above the relegation zone.


SITUATION OF THE BRASILEIRÃO

Botafogo leads the Brasileirão with 56 points, followed closely by Palmeiras, with 53. If John Textor's team loses and Palmeiras win, Abel Ferreira's team takes the lead on goal difference. Fortaleza, which faces Cuiabá on Sunday (29), is in third place with 52 points, while Flamengo closes the G4 with 45 points and one game less.

This is because Memphis Depay, the team's new reinforcement, was not registered in the competition after the São Paulo team missed the deadline stipulated by the CBF.

POSSIBLE FLAMENGO MISSINGS

On Thursday afternoon (26), the Flamengoguaranteed its place in the final of the Carioca Under-20 Championship by beating Boavista 2-0, in a game played in the Gavea. Under the command of Filipe Luís, the team managed to impose themselves on the field and confirm their favoritism. The goals were scored by Iago and Guilherme Gomes, both standing out in offensive plays and consolidating the result that gave Rubro-Negro classification.

In the first game, Flamengo had drawn with Boavista by 1 to 1, with Mengão's goal scored by Shirt 10, Guilherme Gomes. This result left the team in a situation where they needed a simple victory to advance. Filipe Luís, who has done consistent work at the head of the U20, opted for a balanced tactical scheme, and the team responded from the beginning.

The Flamengostarted the second leg with an offensive stance and put pressure on the opponent in the first minutes. Seven minutes into the game, Rubro-Negro opened the scoring with a header from Iago. The move began with a precise corner kick made by Guilherme Gomes, who found the captain free in the area to score the net and put Flamengo in the lead.

With the goal early, Flamengo controlled the pace and had control of the actions in the first stage. Boavista, on the other hand, tried to reorganize itself on the field, but found it difficult to advance due to Flamengo's strong marking. The red and black defensive system, with Iago and Da Mata, was safe, neutralizing Boavista's attacks and giving peace of mind to goalkeeper Lucas Furtado.

Coach Filipe Luís selected the team with Lucas Furtado in goal; Daniel Sales, Iago, Da Mata and Carbone forming the defensive line; in the middle, Rayan Lucas, Jean Carlos and Guilherme Gomes provided support in the transition and created good opportunities; and in attack, Germano, Felipe Teresa and Wallace Yan sought to put pressure on the opposing defense.

The second goal came at the beginning of the second half, after another well-constructed play by the midfield. Guilherme Gomes appeared again, this time as a finisher, taking advantage of a rebound inside the area and placing the ball in the back of the goal. With the score 2-0, Flamengo started to manage the result, but still had opportunities to extend the advantage.
