Flamengo went through a period of nine games during the Copa América, presenting a performance that, although not perfect, shows the team's ability to react and adapt under pressure. During this period, Flamengo accumulated five wins, two draws and two defeats, totaling 17 points from the 27 played. Let's analyze these numbers in more detail.

Flamengo emerged victorious in five of the nine matches played. These victories were essential to keep the team in the fight for the top places in the table. In each of these victories, Flamengo showed its offensive strength, scoring decisive goals and taking advantage of the opportunities created. The consistency in victories reflects the technical and tactical quality of the team, in addition to the physical and mental preparation of the players.

FLAMENGO HAS A POSITIVE BALANCE

The two draws recorded by Flamengo they can be analyzed in two ways: as important points that guaranteed continuity in the pursuit of objectives or as missed opportunities to gain more points. In balanced games, getting a point can be considered a positive result, especially in away matches or against direct opponents in the table. However, these draws can also be seen as moments in which the team could have been more assertive to guarantee victory.

The two defeats suffered during the Copa América serve as warnings for the team and coaching staff . Analyzing the reasons for these defeats is crucial to correcting mistakes and preventing them from being repeated in the future. Whether due to defensive failures, lack of concentration or simply the quality of the opponent, it is essential to understand what didn't work and seek improvements. Defeats also offer the opportunity to learn and evolve, something that Flamengo must take advantage of to strengthen itself.
