In the first leg of the Copa do Brasil final, this Sunday (3), Flamengo emerged victorious against Atlético-MG 3-1, but the physical effort required for some athletes, such as Uruguayan midfielder Arrascaeta, was evident. Playing in pain, the number 14 left the field in the second half, reinforcing his commitment to the CRF, even with physical limitations. After the match, Arrascaeta explained his condition and highlighted his intention to play the round in Belo Horizonte, despite the risk.


In an interview At the end of the game, the Uruguayan explained that wear and tear led him to need extra protection on his knee, aggravating the need for surgery. “I have been playing with knee protection and may need another intervention at the end of the season. I'm trying to support the team in this final stage. It's important to be on the field, but obviously the pain makes it difficult. As a result, the other muscles end up overloaded, but the medical department and I are doing our best to be ready for the next match,” said the player.




COACH EXALTS DRAGON'S SACRIFICE AND HIGHLIGHTS THE TEAM'S RESILIENCE

At the press conference after the game, coach Filipe Luís was asked about the physical condition of Arrascaeta and revealed that the player has been in pain since before he took charge of the team. Filipe praised the dedication of the midfielder, who has spared no effort for Mengão, even in adverse conditions. "Arrascaeta has been dedicating himself to the maximum for the Sacred Mantle, showing an admirable fighting spirit. A player who needs surgery, but is on the field, putting the Flamengoabove anything, he will certainly feel the effects of this in the future, but his attitude is exemplary," commented Filipe.



PLAYERS MUST ADAPT TO THE INTENSE ROUTINE, EVALUATE FILIPE LUÍS

In addition to praising Arrascaeta's effort, Filipe Luís also spoke about the team's physical condition, which, according to him, tends to end matches exhausted – something natural, in his opinion, for a team used to competing in high level. Inspired by the preparation style that has already been the subject of other Flamengo coaches, Filipe emphasized that the sequence of games helps athletes adapt to the effort. “This group is very qualified, and the more they play, the better they become. The human body adapts; whoever plays 90 minutes once can do so successively. The effort we see is natural, and recovery is an essential part of this routine. We will play whoever is most prepared, and that is our philosophy for facing each match,” added the coach.

" In my first press conference, I said that I am in a position where I would make decisions that would make some players uncomfortable, angry with me. And that is what happened with Gabigol. I made a tactical correction on the field, nerves on edge and all of us wanting to win, there's no talking, it's shouting. This discussion that happened today (Sunday) happened every week when I was a player and now it won't be any different. , explained Filipe Luís.

After the 3-1 defeat to Flamengo in the first match of the final of the Copa do Brasil, Atlético-MG remains optimistic for the second leg, which will be held on November 10, at Arena MRV. To win the title in regular time, Galo needs a victory by three goals difference. If they win by two, the decision will be taken to penalties.


In an interview in the Maracanã mixed zone, the striker Hulk shared his confidence in Atlético's recovery, highlighting the support of the fans as a key piece. "We have the chance to reverse this score at home, in our Arena, with the encouragement of our fans. It's challenging, but it's not impossible", commented the number 7.




GAME ANALYSIS AND DEFENSIVE CHALLENGES

The striker also analyzed the first match, mentioning errors in marking that resulted in Rubro-Negro's goals. "We started well, pressing, but we made a mistake in marking and Flamengo took advantage. The second goal came from a distraction on our part in defense, and Gabigol, with a bit of luck, managed to score", added Hulk.


Flamengo's 2-0 lead in the first half complicated Atlético's comeback in the second half. According to Hulk, the Minas Gerais team tried to react, but encountered difficulties due to the opponent's confidence. Even so, Alan Kardec's goal, at the end of the game, brought hope to the team and the fans.


IMPORTANCE OF ALAN KARDEC'S GOAL

The Galo striker highlighted Kardec's goal as a positive point that keeps the team alive in the title race. "We conceded the third, but we maintained our maturity until the end. Kardec's goal gave us momentum and, with the support of our fans, I believe we can achieve the result we need", added Hulk.
