With a total of 12 games played so far, Flamengo stands out as the standout team, boasting a remarkable feat: they have not yet conceded a goal. This impressive achievement not only reflects the team's defensive ability, but also highlights the cohesion and commitment of its players in keeping the opponent out of their area.
The defensive success of Flamengo cannot be underrated, especially in a highly competitive context like Serie A. Leading the league in terms of goals not conceded, the team demonstrates a relentless determination to pursue excellence in all aspects of the game.
While the Flamengo shines in defense, other clubs they also deserve recognition for their efforts in keeping their networks intact. Teams like Atlético-MG and Athletico, with only six goals conceded, demonstrate remarkable defensive solidity, which contributes to their competitive position in the table.
However, not all teams enjoy the same defensive success. Botafogo, for example, faces significant difficulties, having conceded 13 goals so far. These defensive challenges not only highlight areas for improvement within the team, but also highlight the complexity and unpredictability of the sport.
As the championship progresses, it is inevitable that teams will face ups and downs, both in defense as in the attack. Success in football is often defined by the ability to overcome adversity and learn from past experiences. Goals conceded numbers offer an objective view of this crucial aspect of the game, providing a solid basis for analysis and discussion of team performance.

The coach has his new tormentor for the season

O Flamengo, known for its powerful attack and star-studded squad, faces a worrying reality in the Brazilian Championship: defensive fragility. Among the top seven in the table, Rubro-Negro stands out negatively as the team that has conceded the most goals, with a total of 28 balls in the opponent's net so far. This statistic raises an alert and raises questions about the team's balance on the field.
Analyzing the team's direct competitors Flamengo, the defensive disparity becomes evident. Palmeiras, current leader of the championship, conceded 16 goals, almost half the number of Flamengo. Grêmio, who has shown consistency throughout the season, also has a more solid defense, with 18 goals conceded. Botafogo, another rival in the fight for the title, has an even more efficient defense, with only 14 goals conceded. These numbers show that, while Flamengo's attack is one of the most productive, the defense leaves something to be desired, compromising the team's overall performance. Several factors contribute to Flamengo. The constant change in the defense duo is one of them. Since the beginning of the season, the coach had to deal with injuries and suspensions, which made it impossible to form a consistent starting center back duo. Furthermore, the lack of interaction between players in the defensive sector, aggravated by turnover, has negatively impacted the team's performance. Another point worth highlighting is the exposure of the full-backs. In Flamengo's game model, full-backs are often used to support the attack, which sometimes leaves the defense unguarded. This strategy, despite being efficient in attack, has taken its toll on defensive recovery. Without adequate coverage, Flamengo has suffered from quick counterattacks from opponents, who exploit precisely this vulnerability.
