FLAMENGO SEES INVINCIBILITY DROP IN THE SEASON AFTER DEFEAT TO BOLIVAR AT ALTITUDE

Last Wednesday night (24), Flamengo faced Bolívar in La Paz, at an altitude of more than 3,600 meters. Rubro-Negro even managed to tie the match, but in the second half, due to a mistake and inattention on the part of the team, they turned around and lost 2-1. Thus, the team saw its unbeaten record during the season fall.

O Mais Querido did not lose a match in 2024 until this Wednesday (24). This is because Rubro-Negro's last defeat under Tite's command had taken place in 2023, when they lost 1-0 to São Paulo, in the 38th round of the Brasileirão. Since then, there have been 20 games, with 14 wins and six draws.

FALL FROM INVINCIBILITY

However, when visiting Bolívar at altitude and with several athletes spared, the Most Dear saw the unbeaten run that lasted 20 games fall. Furthermore, Rubro-Negro parked at 4 points in group E and saw the Bolivian team reach nine and isolate themselves at the top of the group.

FOCUS ON THE NEXT MATCH

Now, Mais Querido will only worry about the Libertadores again in two weeks. This is because, in this interval, Rubro-Negro begins its journey in the Copa do Brasil and focuses on the Brasileirão. Next week, the 31st, Flamengo will host Amazonas, in the first game of the third phase of the competition.

Next Sunday (28th), Rubro-Negro will face Botafogo, at 11am, in a valid match for the fourth round of the Brasileirão. Mais Querido will try to win to regain first place in the table.
