0On Monday, the 16th, Flamengo presented Tite as its new coach. The press conference took place at Ninho do Urubu and started at 2:30 pm (Brasília time). Tite's signing was announced the previous week, on October 9th (Monday), and, since then, the former Brazilian National Team coach has been working with the players at the Red and Black Training Center.
During one of the questions, the coach spoke about the possibility of using an attack with Pedro and Gabigol. For Adenor, it is possible to use the attacking duo that won the Libertadores and the Copa do Brasil in 2022. However, they also need to present a good defensive performance for the formation to work.
- We talked Yes, I talked to Gabi and Pedro and talked about the possibility of using the two together, yes. But the defensive, offensive and dead ball phases need to work. I told them that they competed to go to the World Cup. I said it like this: 'Straight talk without a filter'. But they did not compete on the same characteristics. One competed as a pivot, the other as a movement player. That's why they can play together
His debut with the Sacred Mantle is scheduled to take place this Thursday (19), in the Brasileirão. Due to the FIFA Date of October, Flamengo's game calendar received this gap of 'free days', which were great for Tite to have plenty of time to prepare the team. The team's next match is against Cruzeiro, at Estádio Mineirão, for the 27th round of the Brasileirão, and is scheduled to start at 7pm (Brasília time).
Meanwhile, Tite will continue adapting to the red players -blacks and them to your style of play. After his presentation, the stars will still train with him for a few days before their first match.
It is worth remembering that, initially, the coach's presentation press conference was scheduled to take place this Tuesday (17) , from 1:00 pm (Brasília time). However, the club brought the event forward by one day and even changed the time. There were still rumors that this would take place at the headquarters, in Gávea, but the tradition continued and Tite, like the other coaches, will be presented at the CT.
The teams play the first game of the quarterfinals at 7 p.m.

0Tite defined Flamengo and announced the 11 starters who will face Peñarol, this Thursday, at Maracanã, at 7pm. De la Cruz returns to the starting lineup in place of Léo Ortiz, and Alex Sandro and Plata were retained. The duel with the Uruguayans is the first between the teams in the quarter-finals of the Copa Conmebol Libertadores.
Alex Sandro and Plata, debutants in last Sunday's classic, remain in the team after having good performances in the draw against Vasco. Gabigol is now out of the relationship due to fibrosis in the posterior muscle of his right thigh. Flamengo, in a statement, reported that the athlete did not suffer any injury in the region. Check it out:
"The Clube de Regatas do Flamengo informs that the athlete Gabriel Barbosa underwent tests that did not diagnose an injury to the posterior muscle of his right thigh. However, the Technical Committee opted for precaution and did not list him for the duel against Peñarol due to fibrosis in the region. Gabi is handed over to physiotherapists and physical trainers for the series of decisive games of the season."

Striker provided the perfect pass for Carlinhos' goal
|
0Flamengo entered the field on Wednesday night (24), trying to get closer to the leadership of the Brasileirão. In a game of opposite moments, Fla won 2-1, with goals from Arrascaeta and Carlinhos. The decisive goal of the match came in extra time in the second half, and striker Gabigol was once again instrumental in a 'lights out' move.
In the previous round, Gabigol came off the bench and, at 43 minutes into the complementary stage, he took the penalty that defined the red and black victory against Criciúma. Previously, in the game against Vitória, the number 99 gave a beautiful assist to Carlinhos, who invaded the area and scored a beautiful goal to guarantee three more points for Fla. Therefore, it can be said that Gabi was a fundamental player in the last six points that Mengo won.
Formerly the protagonist of Flamengo, today Gabigol is trying to regain space in the team. Involved in punishment for fraud in an anti-doping test and still experiencing a dispute over contract renewal, Gabi publicly demanded more minutes on the field.
FIGHT FOR THE LEADERSHIP OF BRASILEIRÃOWith the triumph in the 19th round, Flamengo reached the mark of 37 points in the Brazilian Championship. With this, the team returns to the direct fight for leadership of the competition. This is because Botafogo, which is currently in first place, has 40 points and one game more than Rubro-Negro. This way, if Fla wins the delayed game, it has a chance to take the lead.
Now, Flamengo's next commitment will be close to the fans. After all, on Sunday (28), Mais Querido faces Atlético-GO, at Maracanã. Until then, Gabigol will have three days of training to try to convince Tite that he deserves more minutes on the field
