On a difficult night, Flamengo managed to qualify for the next phase of the Copa Libertadores, even after the 1-0 defeat against Bolívar, in the altitude of La Paz. The result, although negative, secured their place due to the advantage built in previous games. Altitude has always been a challenge for Brazilian teams, and Flamengo was no exception, facing great difficulties during the match.

Midfielder Gerson, one of the team's highlights, got straight to the point after the game: "I have a lot of headache, but it's Flamengo and I did my best. We went hard. Congratulations to the group. It's sinister to play here (La Paz). Only those who go through this can tell. They'll say that we lost and everything, but we are classified", he declared in a post-game interview.


FLAMENGO IS OVERCOMED BUT THEY CLASSIFIE 

The statement from Gerson reflects well what the game was: a physical and mental battle. Playing in La Paz is always an arduous task, and this time was no different. The altitude of 3,650 meters above sea level imposes an adverse condition that directly affects the players' performance. Even for a team used to big challenges like Flamengo, the match was marked by difficulties in adapting to the rarefied air.

From the start of the game, Flamengo found it difficult to maintain the pace and intensity they usually to present. Bolívar, in turn, took advantage of its familiarity with local conditions to put pressure on the Brazilian team. During the 90 minutes, Rubro-Negro struggled to maintain their defensive organization, but it was clear that the team was unable to impose their style of play.

Pedro's injury seems to reveal the real extent of the loss of space in Flamengo's team under coach Tite. Bruno Henrique has been chosen so far for the role of center forward and, against Vasco, this Sunday (15), the coach opted for Carlinhos as a substitute. A situation that idol Maestro Júnior sees as an attempt to send a message to Gabriel, who entered the classic with five minutes to go.

“It was strange, really. Even because of his CV and everything he has done, independent of Carlinhos. But I think he would automatically be the man to step into that role. Whether it was more fixed or like he has done, leaving the area more. Some message was given, but Tite didn't comment at all...", Júnior said on the program 'Seleção SporTV'.


Tite was asked about the decision at the press conference and, just as Júnior said, he didn't comment much about it. the case. The stance that the coach adopts in some questions during the press conferences, and the Gabigol topic is probably the main one. He limited himself to saying that the option was based on “training and games”, in addition to highlighting Carlinhos’ decisive moments this season. Indicating that Camisa 22 is ahead.


The red-black coach's assistant and son, Matheus Bachi, assured that it was a tactical decision. This is because they assessed that the team needed a player who could take advantage of the crosses that were being created.

But the justifications were not enough to convince André Rizek. Continuing the debate with Maestro Júnior, the journalist stated that he doesn't see how Gabigol can be useful in Tite's Flamengo if he is behind Carlinhos in the hierarchy.


“He loses Pedro and opts for Bruno Henrique. But then Bruno leaves the game and the person who enters is not Gabigol, but Carlinhos. And so, if Gabigol doesn't beat Carlinhos at this moment, I can't see him being useful. A melancholic end for one of the greatest players in Flamengo's history.”

Bruno Henrique as center forward exposes Gabigol at the end of the line

There was a current that stated that Tite could opt for Carlinhos instead of Gabigol to maintain as much as possible the characteristics that the team had with Pedro. This is because, despite technical differences, both are taller center forwards, who compete for the aerial ball and can pivot at the edge of the area. However, the choice of Bruno Henrique has already forced a change of system.

The red-black team no longer has a regular center forward. This is because, although good at playing from the top, Bruno does not usually act as a reference to hold the ball in attack. Which forces Flamengo to play with a more mobile attack, with position changes with Luiz Araújo, Gerson and now Gonzalo Plata. In addition to having reduced shots and touched the ball more in the last two games.

Tite, therefore, is already willing to change the way he plays and adapt to the team without Pedro in charge of the attack. But he has not yet shown that he is considering the possibility of testing the team with Gabigol in the starting 11.

“I'm loving this phase of waking up early and working out. Before, everything was a priority, except training. I'm going to the gym more, but I prefer to do outdoor activities”, said the beauty in an interview with the newspaper Extra.


At 43 years old, Mariana Ximenes analyzed that she thinks she is a sensual woman: “At Sometimes I think I'm very sensual, why wouldn't I? We have to feel sexy.”


In addition, the actress stated that it is difficult to lose her mind: “My therapy is always up to date. I'm a difficult person to take seriously, but I don't like incompetence, injustice and lack of education”, she said.

“I don't like fighting, I'm not warlike. I am selective in my stress. Over time, I understood certain things and calmed down. I was once anxious, today I'm just restless. Meditation helped me. Do you know when I take the opportunity to fight? On stage… that’s where I play,” declared the artist.


Mariana also reflected on the personality of her character in the 9pm soap opera: “The cool thing is bringing humanity to the characters. Not everyone is good or bad all the time. We have our weaknesses. Even Isis has her vulnerabilities. […] She had a flawed family foundation. Not that this justifies it, but she was disowned by her own family”, he said.
