This Wednesday (24), Flamengo faces Bolívar in another challenge for the Copa Libertadores. The confrontation brings with it an unfavorable history for the red and black team from Rio, who seeks to reverse the situation against their Bolivian opponent. Since the first clash between the two teams, Flamengo was unable to establish hegemony against Bolívar. There have been four clashes throughout history, with only one victory for Mais Querido.
In the 1983 Copa Libertadores, the teams faced each other twice, with alternating results. In the first match, Bolívar won 3-1. However, in the second match, Flamengo got payback with a 5-2 victory. 2014 of the Copa Libertadores, the teams faced each other again in a very disputed group stage. The first game ended in a draw, with a score of 2-2. In the second match, Bolívar came out on top, winning 1-0.
Based on this history, Flamengo enters the field aware of the challenges it will have to overcome to achieve victory. The Rio team is looking not only for the three points, but also to break this sequence of unfavorable results against Bolívar.
Flamengo's coach and players recognize the importance of the clash and are determined to put on a good performance. During training, strategies have been worked out to neutralize the opponent's game and exploit possible gaps in the Bolivian defense.
In addition, the match against Bolívar represents an opportunity for Flamengo to show its strength and reaffirm its aspirations in continental competition. A victory would be essential not only for qualifying for the next stages, but also for boosting the morale of the team and the fans.

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.

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.
