The Flamengo was defeated by Palestino last Tuesday night (7) by the score of 1-0. After the match, coach Tite held a press conference and preferred this instead of pointing out a specific reason for the defeat.
"We can't disguise it. When we find a single answer to a problem, it's a very simplistic situation. It belongs to the group. And when I I spoke about other situations, they were not defined for a situation, also in a set of works", said Tite, during a press conference.
"APOLOGIES" SAID BY TITE IN THE LAST MATCHES
The Flamengohas not had a winning streak since the draw with Palmeiras, where the technical committee complained about the synthetic pitch at Allianz Parque. Soon after, the excuses used for the defeat against Bolívar were the altitude, where Mais Querido lamented the difficulties at 3,600 meters above sea level.
On the way back from Bolivia, the Rubro-Negro caught Botafogo at 11am, in Maracanã, with a heat of 34 degrees. After the game, Tite asked that morning matches no longer be played.
FOCUS ON THE NEXT MATCH
Now, Flamengo changes the focus for the Brazilian Championship. Mais Querido faces Corinthians next Saturday (11), at 4pm, at Maracanã, in the sixth round of the competition. This way, the team will have the chance to seek victory again.

Flamengo fans once again demonstrate their strength and should transform the Maracanã into a cauldron. According to journalist Venê Casagrande, 57,402 tickets have already been sold for the first leg of the Copa Libertadores quarterfinals against Estudiantes , scheduled for next Thursday (18).
High demand quickly sold out the North, East, Lower West, and Maracanã Mais sectors. Currently, only tickets remain for the South sector, priced at R$200 (full price) and R$100 (half price). The club's management expects all 60,000 tickets on sale to be sold out this Thursday.
Adding up free tickets, courtesies, VIP boxes, and reserved seats, the projected attendance for the match is high. The estimate is that more than 67,000 fans will cheer the team on in their quest for a spot in the semifinals of the continental competition.
Before the decisive duel for the Libertadores, Flamengo has an important commitment in the Brasileirão. On Sunday (14), at 4 pm (Brasília time), the team faces Juventude at the Alfredo Jacon i Stadium , for the 23rd round of the championship.
Rubro-Negro leads the table with 47 points, while the team from Rio Grande do Sul is in 18th place with 21 points. The return match against Estudiantes, which will determine who qualifies for the semifinals , will take place on September 25th at 9:30 pm (Brasília time) at the Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium (UNO) in La Plata, Argentina.
The coach was approached by the Turkish club, but chose to continue working for Mais Querido; the red-black board is trying to extend the contract until 2026.

Coach Filipe Luís turned down an offer from Fenerbahçe of Turkey to remain with the club he leads at Flamengo. According to a report by the UOL portal, the European club approached Flamengo's board and expressed formal interest in the coach . Despite admitting his desire to one day work in European football, Filipe Luís preferred not to open negotiations , understanding that his career in Brazil is still ongoing.
Fenerbahçe even signaled financial compensation to the Rio de Janeiro club , but as neither the coach nor the board were willing to end the current project, the talks did not progress.
The club's management has already submitted a contract renewal proposal to Filipe Luís , valid until the end of 2026 and renewable for another year, including a salary increase. The coach, who signed in 2024 with a salary lower than that of the country's elite coaches , has not yet pushed for a raise and has promised to submit a counterproposal.
Filipe Luís has always publicly stated his ambition to coach European clubs. However, he understands that he is undergoing a process of professional development and that remaining in Brazil helps in this development. Internally, this vision is seen as a positive factor in maintaining his position at least until next season.
In addition to Fenerbahçe, Germany's Bayer Leverkusen has also recently expressed interest in Filipe Luís. Even so, the board believes the coach won't leave Mengão at this time to pursue a project abroad, and is confident he'll stay until the end of his current term at Flamengo .
Mengão buys equipment to provide players with better training conditions, which can improve their performance.

Flamengo continues to expand its high-performance structure . The club invested $1 million (approximately R$5.35 million) in new equipment for Ninho do Urubu , including two pieces of equipment that are the first of its kind in Latin America, manufactured by Keiser, a global leader in physical training solutions.
One of the highlights is the Keiser A300 Runner , designed to simulate the acceleration phase of running. Unlike traditional machines, which use iron weights, this model uses compressed air resistance , providing a smoother, jerk-free load, which reduces impact on joints during workouts.
Furthermore, the equipment allows for unilateral or bilateral training, helping to correct common muscular asymmetries in athletes. The integrated digital panel displays real-time data, such as applied load, power, and number of repetitions , allowing for more accurate analysis.
Another unique feature is the inertia-free technology, which prevents the weight from returning to the body at the end of the movement. This feature increases safety and reduces risks to muscles and joints, making the device useful for both explosive work and rehabilitation processes.
Flamengo coordinator on equipment: "These devices are the first in Latin America"
For Flamengo 's sports science coordinator, Cláudio Pavanelli, the investment places the club on a par with European football giants: "Some devices are specifically for athletes. They simulate the execution of a movement, a run, a sprint at high intensity. These devices are the first in Latin America. Only a few major European clubs have acquired this new technology ," he explained.
He continued: " The big difference is that you can analyze the application of force throughout the entire movement . At each joint level, you can identify exactly what is being performed, considering the applied overload and the speed of the movement." With the new investment, Flamengo reinforces its commitment to maintaining a level of physical excellence among its squad, combining performance and injury prevention.
