Flamengo entered the field with great expectations, but despite having come out ahead on the scoreboard, they saw Grêmio recover impressively and win the match 3-2. The defeat in Porto Alegre left the fans red and black disappointed and opened space for provocations from opponents, such as the player Rafael, from Botafogo. On social media, Rafael didn't miss the opportunity to mock Mengo, making reference to what he called a "blackout" in the team's performance: "It seems like there was a power outage at the Grêmio Arena, huh…". The Botafogo player's post was accompanied by emojis of eyes and laughter, intensifying the provocation.

The situation in the Brazilian Championship table before the match was promising for Flamengo. Atlético-MG's victory over Bragantino in the 29th round had opened up the possibility of Rubro-Negro taking second place if they beat Grêmio. However, the defeat drastically changed the Rio team's plans. With the negative result, Flamengo not only missed the chance of being in second place, but was also overtaken by Palmeiras in the table. Both teams have 50 points, but the goal difference puts the São Paulo team ahead. Thus, Flamengo fell to fourth place, while Alviverde occupies third place.


Flamengo's next challenge will be a kind of forced "pre-season", due to the postponement of the clash with Red Bull Bragantino because of the Libertadores final. The Rio team will only return to the field next Wednesday (01) to face Santos, in the 30th round of the Brasileirão. It will be a crucial opportunity for Flamengo to get back on its feet and regain its position in the table. Flamengo fans now hope that the team can overcome the defeat to Grêmio and get back on the path to victory.


Flamengo's season is marked by ups and downs, but the fans continue to believe in the team's potential and in the quest for the Brazilian Championship title. It remains to be seen how the team will recover after this unexpected setback and how it will deal with provocations from opponents, such as that of Rafael, from Botafogo, who every time the red and black team stumbles, he doesn't miss the opportunity to take advantage.

"Unconditional fan" of Flamengo, Rafael, from Botafogo, shows (again) that he doesn't miss any games and teases on social media: "It seems like the power went out in the second half". With a hint of sarcasm, the black-and-white player took advantage of Rubro-Negro's defeat to poke at his arch-rivals, adding another chapter to the rivalry between the Rio de Janeiro teams that has come to a head in recent years.

Flamengo will face Grêmio in Porto Alegre, but an important absence has already been confirmed: Gabigol, one of the team's main attackers, will not travel with the red-black delegation. The player will remain in Rio de Janeiro, where he will focus on improving his physical form. The decision not to take the striker to the capital of Rio Grande do Sul aims to ensure that he has enough time to dedicate himself to physical preparation at Ninho do Urubu, the club's training center. Although there is no confirmed injury, Flamengo appears to be taking precautions to avoid wear and tear that could compromise the remainder of the season.

This choice may surprise some fans, as Gabigol is one of the team's key players and, generally, an undisputed starter in decisive matches. The absence of Gabriel Barbosa, known as Gabigol, raises questions about how Flamengo should arm the team offensively for the clash. Despite Gabigol's absence, Flamengo has alternatives in attack, with players like Pedro and Bruno Henrique, who can take the lead. The expectation is that the coach will use these options to compensate for the striker's absence.


THE CLUB HAS ANOTHER LOSS 

The decision to spare Gabigol may be related to the club's long-term planning. Flamengo faces a marathon of important games, and the physical recovery of its athletes becomes essential to maintain performance in simultaneous competitions. According to information released by Mauro Cezar, Gabigol is focused on improving his physical side. This could mean that the player has been feeling the wear and tear accumulated throughout the season.

Flamengo has adopted a strategy of preserving some of its main players at certain times, aiming to avoid injuries that could sideline them for long periods of time. periods. This preventive measure is common in clubs that compete in several competitions and have a tight schedule. With this, the idea is that the athlete returns in better condition, ready to perform at a higher level in the next matches.

Forward Michael, from Flamengo, took an important step towards his return to the field this Friday (20). The player, who was away from activities due to an injury, participated in activities on the field, signaling an accelerated evolution in his recovery process. Although the initial deadline for his return was two months, the athlete's performance exceeded medical and technical expectations, opening up the possibility of an earlier-than-expected return.

Michael was injured a few weeks ago, in a situation that worried the medical department and Flamengo's technical committee. The injury, which would initially require more extensive treatment, led to the expectation of a prolonged absence. The deadline initially given by the doctors was two months, a period considered reasonable for the player to fully recover and be able to return to his normal activities at the club without the risk of a relapse.

A RETURN BEFORE TIME < /b>

However, over the last few weeks, the player has shown impressive progress, which has generated optimism among Flamengo members. This Friday, Michael held his first training session on the field since his injury, an important milestone in the rehabilitation process. This activity is an indication that the player may be able to return to the starting lineup soon, if there are no new setbacks in his treatment.

The medical department of Flamengo remains cautious, but does not hide its optimism with the attacker's progress. The better-than-expected recovery, both in terms of time and performance, is seen as a positive sign for the club, which is counting on the player at a crucial moment of the season. With several important commitments in sight, Michael's presence would be a valuable reinforcement for the red and black team, which seeks to remain competitive both in the Brazilian Championship and in international competitions.

He defended that the two have a good relationship and also cited recent statements by Rodolfo Landim, Flamengo's president, who has criticized Alvinegro's high investments.

"I really appreciate that Julio [Casares] is here tonight. He was one of the first to welcome me to Brazil in a very good way. I know you are all reporting a lot of conversations about everything that happened last year, or maybe not happened, about fair play issues. It's important for people to understand that presidents can still be friends, they can be very civil with each other, they can advocate for their public policy views. As a friend, I would say it was great to see you here. We gave each other a big hug because we hadn't seen each other in a long time. In the Libra days, he was one of the people who welcomed me best."


"We are building an organization, a team. we are spending considerably less than what the fair play law says about 75% of our income on sales and player salaries. I think the Landimthe other day said that we needed to have rules because places like Brazil don't have these rules, if an investor comes and takes advantage of the fact that we don't have the rules. But we are in full agreement with all definitions of financial fair play around the world. I was the first to talk about it. I said if we don't do something about the salary cap and invite foreign investment, it will come from sovereign wealth nations with money and oil, then we really have a problem. I'm a lawyer for financial fair play."


Casares has already had fights with the owner of SAF do Glorioso amid accusations of match-fixing for the 2023 Brazilian Championship. The feud, however, remained in the background given the great repercussion of Textor's clashes with Leila Pereira, president of Palmeiras, the board of Tricolor São Paulo took action against the owner of SAF do Botafogo in several legal spheres.
