Tite's decision to put Carlinhos on the field before Gabigol in the game between Flamengo and Vasco generated surprise among fans and the press. The coach had to explain his choice in the post-game press conference, highlighting Gabigol as the third option. Djalminha, a former player and commentator, sees the situation with some perplexity.
On ESPN, Djalminha expressed his point of view, stating that Gabigol should not be behind Carlinhos in Flamengo's forward hierarchy, even in a less favorable phase.
“I don't know, we're not in our daily lives and we don't know how Gabigol is doing. He came back from an injury, we understand these reasons. But with all this, if he is not in front of Carlinhos to enter, something strange is happening at Flamengo, that is not possible”, said Djalminha.
The former athlete highlighted that the only justification for Gabigol only coming in after Carlinhos would be a physical issue, like returning from an injury: “If it's a physical issue, if he's coming back and he's not 100%, that's fine. But…”, commented Djalminha.
Tite Saw Carlinhos as More 'Decisive'Coach Tite explained his choice by saying that he saw Carlinhos as more decisive in in relation to Gabigol, based on the attacker's performance in the game against Bolívar. “Training, Games. Carlinhos was decisive against Bolívar, Atlético-MG, Vitória. (…) Bruno Henrique decisive against Bahia”, stated the coach.
Assistant Matheus Bacchi, Tite’s son, corroborated the coach’s words, explaining that the committee understood that Flamengo needed more presence within the area at that time. Carlinhos, however, was unable to take advantage of the opportunity.
“A 9 with a little more presence in the area. Bruno had been making the movements well, he has played like that at other times. Our idea with Carlinhos was to add another guy with presence in the area. We were able to hit passes, but not penetrate. So it generated a lot of quick crossing”, defined Matheus.
The teams play the first game of the quarterfinals at 7 p.m.

Even off the field, Flamengo continues to be remembered. In the third phase of the English Cup, this Tuesday (17), Fulham (ING) faced Preston (ING) wearing a red and black uniform, and sent a message to the Rio club.
Through social networks, Fulham published: “Back in black and red”, which in Portuguese means “Back to red and black”. In addition to the phrase, the English club shared a photo of striker Rodrigo Muniz wearing the uniform that refers to Flamengo. This generated a wave of comments from Mengão fans on the Fulham page.
FLAMENGO FANS ASK TO EXCHANGE MUNIZ FOR CARLINHOS
After the publication, fans red-blacks "invaded" Fulham's social networks asking for Rodrigo Muniz's return. Many comments suggested replacing the striker with Carlinhos, another player loved by the fans.
Rodrigo Muniz, who began his career in football with Flamengo, was signed by Fulham in 2021 after good performances for the Rio club. Although he faced difficulties establishing himself in the English team and was loaned to Middlesbrough (ING), the young striker stood out after his return and is now one of the team's important players.
FULHAM ELIMINATED ENGLISH LEAGUE CUPDespite using the colors red and black, Fulham were unable to overcome Preston. The game ended in a 1-1 draw in regulation time, and the place was decided on penalties. However, the team of Andreas Pereira and Rodrigo Muniz ended up wasting the 17th penalty and was eliminated from the competition.
