The cast of Flamengo completed the third day of preparation for the game against Bahia, valid for the quarter-finals of the Copa do Brasil. This Saturday's activities (07) were led by coach Tite, who chose not to define starting or reserve teams during collective training. The strategy adopted was to use the session for tests and observations, aiming to adjust the team and analyze the options available for the next appointment.
The coach, whose characteristic is detailed work, took the opportunity to do several tactical variations and evaluate the performance of players in different positions. With the tight schedule, Tite has been looking for alternatives to keep the squad competitive amid the various competitions that the club competes in. The decision not to form defined teams indicates that he is looking for solutions for possible changes to the team, whether due to physical issues, suspensions or injuries.
Another relevant point of this training was the chance to observe the athletes' behavior on the field without the pressure of a previously established structure. Tite, known for his thorough analysis and focus on collective behavior, believes this approach offers a clearer view of how players may react in different game situations. Thus, the absence of a clear separation between starters and reserves allowed for a more flexible dynamic, allowing everyone the chance to show their value under more balanced conditions.
These tests are especially important, considering that the< a href="https://gazetadourubu.com/noticia/bastidores-pegando-fogo-antigos-members-do-conselho-podem-atuar-novamente-pelo-flamengo?" target="_blank"> Flamengo has faced injury problems throughout the season. The club's medical department is working intensely to recover essential players for the squad, and the technical committee knows that it will be necessary to have the entire group available to remain competitive in the final stages of the Copa do Brasil and the Brazilian Championship.
< With the game against Bahia approaching, the observations made in training should directly influence Tite's choices for the match. The coach is attentive to the physical conditions of the players, as the sequence of games requires an effective rotation to avoid excessive wear and tear on the main names in the squad. So, even without defining a starting team in training, Flamengo can already be expected to enter the field with some strategic changes.Red and black reinforcement, Carlos Alcaraz, shows excitement for his debut in the continental tournament

Flamengo returns to the pitch for the Copa Libertadores on September 19th, when they face Peñarol (URU) in the quarter-finals of the competition. One of the team's reinforcements in the last transfer window, Argentine midfielder Carlos Alcaraz, did not hide his anxiety to wear the club's shirt in the continental tournament.
With spells at Racing, where he also competed in the Libertadores , Alcaraz celebrated the opportunity to play for Flamengo in the competition. "I've already played in the Libertadores with Racing, but now I'll be able to play for Flamengo. I'm very happy and looking forward to playing in this decisive phase", said the player, who will be available to coach Tite for the clash against Peñarol.
Alcaraz arrives at the team with the mission of strengthening the midfield, which already has names like Gerson, De La Cruz, Erick Pulgar and Arrascaeta, expanding Tite's options for the decisive games of the tournament.
While preparing for the Libertadores, Alcaraz faces some difficulties in the national calendar . After being sent off in the 2-1 defeat against Corinthians, the Argentine is suspended from the classic against Vasco, valid for the Brazilian Championship. Furthermore, he cannot play in the Copa do Brasil match against Bahia, as he is not registered at this stage of the competition. However, if Flamengo advances to the semi-finals, the midfielder may be used.
Flamengo begins the dispute against Peñarol on September 19th, at 7pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã, in the first leg of the Libertadores quarter-finals. The red-and-black team needs a good result at home to have an advantage in the second leg, which will be played on September 26th, at the Campeón del Siglo stadium, in Uruguay, also at 7pm.

The attacker Carlinhos should be Flamengo's starter in the classic against Botafogo this Sunday (18), in the 23rd round of the Brazilian Championship. The number 22 must take over the space left by Pedro and Gabigol. Playing against the Rio rival brings back good memories for the player. In this year's Carioca he scored two goals against Botafogo.

The game against Botafogo will be Carlinhos' fourth as a starter with the Rubro-Negro shirt. He was part of Tite's lineup against Palmeiras, Atlético-MG and São Paulo. Against the Minas Gerais club, number 22 scored the second goal of the game.
Without Pedro, Gabigol and Everton Cebolinha, Mengão's number 22 should gain a sequence in Tite's starting team . In addition to the match against Botafogo, he should be selected in the starting eleven against Bolívar, on Thursday (22), in the return game of the round of 16.
As Pedro and Gabigol only return in September , Carlinhos should also play against: Bragantino (25); in the first game of the quarterfinals of the Copa do Brasil (27, 28 or 29); and Corinthians (01/09).
Striker projects season titlesSigned by Mais Querido after being second top scorer in the Campeonato Carioca, striker Carlinhos projected to win all the titles that Flamengo has to compete for this season. The projection was made during 'Carona com Smigol', a FLATV program.

Let's look for all possible titles.”
