This Sunday (21), Erick Pulgar used his social networks to share a personal victory that, for him, has a much greater meaning than the recent victory of Flamengoabout Criciúma. In a moving post, the Chilean midfielder revealed that his sister, Paola, had made progress in her battle against depression and took the opportunity to make an important warning about mental health.

Pulgar's post, although aimed mainly at his sister, also served as a warning to those facing similar challenges. The player highlighted the importance of a support network and professional support in the treatment of depression. "Remember that it takes time," said Pulgar in his message, highlighting the need for patience during the recovery process.


VICTORY ON THE FIELD

In addition to sharing news personal, Pulgar was on the field on Saturday, during Flamengo over Criciúma, 2-1, at the Mané Stadium Garrincha, in Brasília. The midfielder started the match, but left the field in the 69th minute for Luiz Araújo to enter.




SUPPORT MESSAGE

In his post, Pulgar expressed a deep feeling of gratitude and pride. "Dear friends and family, today I want to share news that fills my heart with joy. My sister is improving significantly in her fight against depression. Seeing your strength and determination has been a huge inspiration to us all."

The player also offered words of encouragement to those going through difficult times. "To all the people going through a similar time , I want to say that they are not alone. Depression can make us feel isolated and hopeless, but there is always light at the end of the tunnel. Seek support from your loved ones, talk to a professional and remember that it is a process that takes time, but improvement is possible. Every small step counts and every day is an opportunity to move forward. Stay strong."

Two young talents revealed by Flamengo shone in Europe this Saturday (14). Goalkeeper Kauã Santos made his Bundesliga debut for Eintracht Frankfurt, helping the team to a 2-1 victory over Wolfsburg. Kauã entered the field after the experienced Kevin Trapp was injured at the end of the first half. Meanwhile, defender Léo Duarte scored his first goal in European football, securing Basaksehir's 1-0 victory over Bodrum in the Turkish league.

Kauã Santos, who arrived at Flamengo at the age of 16, he never played for the Rio club's main team. After standing out in the youth categories, the goalkeeper caught the attention of Eintracht Frankfurt, who invested R$8.4 million for 70% of his economic rights. On his debut, Kauã was unable to save a penalty taken by Baku, but held off Wolfsburg's pressure, helping to maintain his team's victory.


In turn, Léo Duarte, Copinha champion, rose to Flamengo professionals in 2016 and, little by little, established himself as a starter. In 2018, Milan, from Italy, spent 11 million euros to sign him. After a discreet spell at the Italian club, Léo transferred to Basaksehir, where he finally scored for the first time in Europe.

Léo Duarte and Kauã Santos' moment in Europe

Léo Duarte's Basaksehir occupies third place in the Turkish league with 10 points, just two less than leader Galatasaray. Kauã Santos' Eintracht Frankfurt is in sixth place in the Bundesliga, with six points, three behind leaders Bayern Munich.

ANDREAS PEREIRA AND LUCAS PAQUETÁ'S NEXT GAMES

Andreas Pereira's Fulham are now preparing to face Preston on September 17 , for the FA Cup. Lucas Paquetá's West Ham will only return to the field on September 21st, against Chelsea, in the Premier League.

Carlinhos' performance in the last classic between Flamengoand Vasco, played on Sunday, has generated a wave of criticism and questions from the red and black fans. The striker, who entered the field in the 18th minute of the second half, replacing Bruno Henrique, played a discreet role and ended up failing to help the team in one of the most decisive moments of the match.

The classic, as always, was a game intense and highly anticipated by both fans, with great weight for the championship table and the morale of the teams. However, Carlinhos' entry, which lasted just 27 minutes, was considered below expectations, especially in a scenario where Flamengo was looking for a victory to distance itself from its rivals.

FLAMENGO HAS A DEFICIENCY IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP < /b>

During the 27 minutes he was on the field, Carlinhos barely appeared, failing to influence the game as expected. The player only touched the ball a few times, did not create clear scoring chances and also did not help efficiently in the defensive system. With an apathetic performance, the striker ended up becoming a target of frustration for the fans, who expected more from a player who, at other times, had already demonstrated the potential to be decisive.

The lack of offensive participation was a of the main points raised by critics. In a game that required creativity and boldness to break through the Vasco blockade, Carlinhos was unable to find spaces or impose his presence as a constant threat to the opponent's goal. In classics, where every detail makes a difference, this lack of protagonism weighed even more.


The replacement of Bruno Henrique by Carlinhoswas also a factor that generated discussion. Bruno Henrique, although he was not having a brilliant performance, is a player recognized for his ability to decide games, especially in big confrontations. His departure 18 minutes into the second half was justified by the coaching staff as part of the planning to spare the athlete, who recently returned from injury.
