A last-minute goal from David Luiz gave Flamengo a 2-1 victory over Bahia and the lead in the Brasileirão, this Thursday (20). The squad continues to need to overcome the many absences and achieved a positive result again in the last ball of the game. A fact that impresses commentator Carlos Eduardo Mansur, from Sportv, who highlights the team fighting hard to make up for absences and not give up on games.
“For the size of the losses, three games with two wins and a draw is a important score. For me, what is most shaping this period is adaptation. There is a lot of merit from the coaching staff, they have been a very fierce and dedicated team to supply players in unusual positions. The case of Léo Ortiz is the most emblematic”, began Mansur in ‘Troca de Passes’.
Next, the journalist analyzes the tactical changes that shaped the match at Maracanã. Flamengo found it very difficult to steal the ball from Bahia, in the rare case of finishing with less possession of the ball (42%), but Tite and the players still managed to adapt to reach the opponent's goal.
“ Anyone who looked at the first half saw a change in Flamengo's characteristics. With two open wingers and Lorran, Flamengo was inferior in the middle. And one of the midfielders was Léo Ortiz, who is not a midfielder by birth. When Bahia got together, Flamengo found it difficult to steal the ball. (The Fla) understood that the way to cause damage was at speed. When Flamengo opened the scoring, Bahia was better.”
The changes throughout the second half and Bahia's drop in pace made Flamengo occupy the offensive field. The team pressed for a few minutes until David Luiz scored with a header in the last minute and secured the three points. Mansur, finally, highlights again the red and black dedication.
“Gradually, Tite intervenes to try to give more control. Gerson on the right side, remove Lorran, put on Allan. Flamengo entered Bahia's field. It drew attention again to how dedicated Flamengo has been to getting the result. Flamengo didn't give up. “
