Flamengo was beaten by Bayern Munich this past Sunday (29) , being eliminated in the round of 16 of the Club World Cup. After the match, coach Filipe Luís spoke about the defensive errors of the red-black team , in addition to recognizing the superiority of the opponent.
Filipe Luís recognizes Bayern's superiority: "It's not shameful to recognize it. Bayern's team is better."
He continued: "We have a plan where the full-backs pass. If you can't get past the marking, the full-back won't pass. We (Flamengo) have a plan to attack the space. If the defender defends and has such great defensive quality that he doesn't even let his attacker run, because he's so strong and fast, he dominates you. He takes you to the territory, makes you uncomfortable on the field. Because he's better ," said the Mais Querido coach before completing:
"I know we would love to talk about another game. The reality is that it is very difficult for us to recognize the virtue and merit of the opponent in pressing. Goretzka had to come down to mark Gerson and equalize in a one-on-one to bring up the left-back with Wesley, they made it one-on-one at the start. It is very difficult to overcome a team that fits you in this way and with the defensive and offensive quality that they have ", concluded Filipe Luís .
Despite being eliminated, Flamengo managed to demonstrate some of the quality of its squad. After being 2-0 down on the scoreboard, the Mais Querido continued to try to reduce the score. Among the attempts, Mengo caused trouble and scored twice, with Gerson and Jorginho.
Now, Flamengo will only return to the field in the week of July 13, when they face São Paulo, in the Brasileirão. In the meantime, the red-black squad will enjoy a few days of vacation before returning to activities.
